This heart-pounding novel of horror and psychological suspense takes a ghost hunting reality TV crew into a world they could never have imagined, from the bestselling author of Suffer the Children.
"An epistolary descent into a living nightmare ... well-written and genuinely unsettling. Fans of paranormal documentaries, ghost-hunting shows, and found-footage horror will lose their minds over this one." —Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Kin
Fade to Black is the newest hit ghost hunting reality TV show. Led by husband and wife team Matt and Claire Kirklin, it delivers weekly hauntings investigated by a dedicated team of ghost hunting experts. Episode Thirteen takes them to every ghost hunter's holy grail: the Paranormal Research Foundation. This brooding, derelict mansion holds secrets and clues about bizarre experiments that took place there in the 1970s. It's also famously haunted, and the team hopes their scientific techniques and high tech gear will prove it. But as the house begins to reveal itself to them, proof of an afterlife might not be everything Matt dreamed of.
A story told in broken pieces, in tapes, journals, and correspondence, this is the story of Episode Thirteen—and how everything went terribly, horribly wrong.
“A beautiful Russian doll of a story ... Episode Thirteen hooks you, creeps you out, and then it overwhelms you. It’s House of Leaves meets Haunting of Hill House, in all the best possible ways.”—Peter Clines, New York Times bestselling author of The Broken Room

—Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Kin
Claire and Kevin are such supremely unlikeable characters and considering the ending, I feel like big parts of your enjoyment really hinge on whether or not you sympathize with Claire- and I really don't. So the ending absolutely doesn't work for me and the characters make such stupid and frustrating choices... I know that's a general issue in horror stories, but I feel like this book had potential, like some of the characters had potential.
There's also just an overall lack of explanation that I personally don't like (and the explanations given didn't really live up to my expectations). I also found the lack of empathy towards the original subjects of the Paranormal Foundation a bit wild, considering how effectively the characters learn that it wasn't just a "bad trip" and another bit of lost potential that there is never a call back to what the old man tells us at the beginning of the book.
Again, I think this holds up as a read purely for the enjoyment, but this book really doesn't withstand any kind of scrutiny.
The first listen is fun, the second one not really
