Story
At sixteen, Sadie Young had a brush with death, and as a result she became more sensitive to the supernatural. Rather than embrace this gift, she spent years running from it, and from the darkness that once preyed upon her. Now twenty-five and working as a librarian, Sadie is called upon by a desperate family friend to look into a strange series of events. A teenaged girl has entered a reputedly haunted house in town and has gone mad. Committed, the girl attempts suicide and claims to be terrorized at all hours by a horrific specter known as "Mother Maggot."

Story
Kevin Taylor is an Internet-famous handyman on a mission: Find a house and renovate it in 30 days. By flipping a derelict house in a month's time and chronicling the entire thing on video for his online subscribers, he seeks to become a star. The problems that plague this property will require more than elbow grease to fix, however. Shadows throughout the home are distorted, and an enigmatic trespasser keeps showing up in his footage. Worse still are the hideous voices that issue from otherwise empty rooms in the dead of night.

Story
College professor Stephen Barlow needs cash. Badly. He puts his skepticism aside and signs on to a paranormal research organization in the hopes of scoring a fat bonus. Enter Chaythe Asylum: a long-shuttered and controversial institution where patients were allegedly subjected to unethical experiments. Stephen deems the old building, closed in 1989 after a series of grisly murders, as good a place as any to explore the possibility of the supernatural, and arranges to take a tour with his students. But it turns out that the asylum is not as abandoned as it seems. There is something sinister in the building.

Publisher's summary
Sadie has a gift. And she'll do anything to keep from using it.
At 16, Sadie Young had a brush with death, and as a result she became more sensitive to the supernatural. Rather than embrace this gift, she spent years running from it, and from the darkness that once preyed upon her.
Now 25 and working as a librarian, Sadie is called upon by a desperate family friend to look into a strange series of events. A teenaged girl has entered a reputedly haunted house in town and has gone mad. Committed, the girl attempts suicide and claims to be terrorized at all hours by a horrific specter known as "Mother Maggot".
Despite having subdued her gift for the past nine years, Sadie wishes to assist the girl and reticently agrees to visit the site of the haunting. But upon entering the house on Beacon Hill, she discovers that Mother Maggot isn't merely a figment of a disturbed teen's imagination....

It's no easy job being the town nutcase. Ella knows from experience. She's grown up in a quaint little place with people who pretend the extraordinary isn't happening around them. They ignore the bumps in the night and won't talk about doors closing by themselves or items moving mysteriously. They also won't talk about the old woman who haunts the streets. Those who do are fibbers, begging for attention. But Ella knows it is no lie - when the lightning cracks and the rain thrashes, someone goes missing: a child, lost to the night.

“Liberry”???
I tried so hard to get around the grown adult narrator, with a very adult voice and mature speaking patterns pronouncing library as “liberry” I probably could have overlooked it if the main character were not a “liberrian”, because hearing it over and over again was annoying and took away from the book. I finally had to return it.

Annoying narrator
I really wanted to like this, but I cannot even give it a proper rating because I cannot stand the narrator's voice enough to listen through the book. Another reviewer likened it to her reading to preschoolers, and I agree. Her voice acting is alright, but I'd rather go without and just hear the book read well. I would have liked to hear it read in a deeper, more soothing voice. Her timbre is just all wrong for this type of novel.

"Lie-berry"
The overall story was decent, but it was a personal hell getting through it because the main character is a librarian working at a library and the narrator continuously pronounced library as "lie-berry" & librarian as "lie-berrian". I can't belive she got paid for this, it was awful.

If you can ignore the narrator's inability to pronounce certain words, like librarian, then this is a good read.
narrator, if you pay attention to any reviews, you should offer to redo all your readings and correct libarian to the correct pronunciation libRarian, for free. ugh!

Great story, but the narrator was terrible. Almost didn't listen after the first few paragraphs, glad I pushed through it though, the story is really good.
