The Haunted Halls

De: Glenn Rolfe

Narrado por: Joe Hempel

The Bruton Inn, located outside of the small Maine city of Hollis Oaks, is home to something sinister. An icy presence has made its way from a dark past to the present day. Cold spots, shadows, and whispers permeate the halls, and guests are beginning to change. For two front desk employees, the dark rumors are about to come to light. They call upon an urban shaman and his connection with the spirit world to dig up the truth. Will they be able to stand against this malevolent force? Or will they come face to face with something beyond their most frightful dreams. Welcome to the Bruton Inn. The Ice Queen has arrived.

A Solid Haunted Halls story

A creepy and bloody haunted hotel story that is perfect for an October read (listen). Hey, it doesn’t have to be October, you can read or listen to it anytime.

I have listened to several Joe Hempel audiobooks and have enjoyed them all. I like his voice and cadence and he always paces the stories well.

This one was a little hard to follow for me because of the alternating timelines and POV’s. It didn’t help that I listened to it in my car and would occasionally get interrupted with work calls and appointments, so I’m sure that had something to do with it
.
The story itself was good and violent and had several genuinely creepy moments. Recommended for those who like a less subtle and more violent ghost story. A Solid 3.5+ Stars!

*I received a complimentary copy of this audio from the narrator in exchange for an honest review. This was it.

I may never stay at a hotel again!

If you could sum up The Haunted Halls in three words, what would they be?

Succubus Terrorizes Hotel

Who was your favorite character and why?

It's tough deciding between Jeff or Rhiannon. I thought both were going to be minor characters, but they really blossomed into characters I liked. I'm still undecided about Lee. I still think deep down he's an asshole.

What about Joe Hempel’s performance did you like?

Joe is a master is this craft. His acting skills turned this book into an amazing listening experience.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

She wants revenge, and is willing to embrace hell to get it

Any additional comments?

I was unsure if I would like this book. I'm not a huge horror fan, but it took no time to get pulled in. The writing is great, and the performance by Mr. Hempel was fantastic. This audio book was gifted to me by the narrator at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review via Audiobook Boom.

Hanted Halls

I liked it ,a bit.The narrator,Joe Hempel,was great.I found the story to be more slasher than spooky horror. Everyone who stays at this hotel dies in a horrible,bloody way. I was given this book free for an honest review.

Evil poltergeists at their worst

Demented murder becomes
Evil spirit. Haunted hotel, urban shaman, terrified teens lots and lots of paranormal Love interests. Good ghost story. Too graphic for kids with some of the scenes (sex scenes). The narrator whose works I have always enjoyed didn't disappoint. Captured the depth of the different characters and conveys the feeling of terror the scenes are meant to have inspired.

Not a stale ghost story!

The Haunted Halls reads like a B rated horror movie, and I so sincerely do not mean that it a bad way; I get a kick out of cheesy and very graphic horror movies, and this book truly provided all the same entertainment value! It’s nice a spooky, gory, and there are plenty of enjoyable adult themes. The characters in the book are so normal and relatable that they make the book feel extra creepy. I am very impressed with the freshness of this ghost story, and I recommend it to other lovers of horror stories! This is the first book I’ve listened to read by Joe Hempel, and he does a really great job. His diction is clear, the pace is perfect, and he narrates effortlessly.
