The Hotel By Daisy Johnson

‘The Hotel’ is a collection of short stories by Daisy Johnson.

A place of myths, rumours and secrets, The Hotel looms over the dark Fens, tall and grey in its Gothic splendour. Built on cursed land, a history of violent death suffuses its very foundations –yet it has a magnetism that is impossible to ignore. On entering The Hotel, different people react in different ways. To some it is familiar, to others a stranger. Many come out refreshed, longing to return. But a few are changed forever, haunted by their time there. And almost all those affected are women. They are children and mothers, monsters, cult film-makers, thrill-seekers and workers on the night shift, all with their own tales of its strange power, of the horrors of Room 63, and of desperate but failed attempts to escape its seductive pull.

If you’re a fan of horror, then ‘The Hotel’ is a must read. Oozing with terror and paranormal, this book was unsettling from the first page, so much so I couldn’t even sleep with it in the same room as me, which was a throwback to my ‘Goosebumps’ days!

The stories are all about 10 pages so it was easy to get consumed in them, especially as the stories all connected to each other and I really enjoyed that about the book.

Haunting and creepy from the first story, ‘The Hotel’ is chillingly written with characters that really get under your skin and stories that stay with you long after you’ve reached th final page.

You can buy ‘The Hotel’ from Amazon and is avaialble to buy from good bookshops.
