Praise for this book

"It's easy to recognize Ocker as a future master of madness after this thrilling haunted house trip."-Fangoria Magazine

"A good pick if you want to spruce up your haunted house offerings for Halloween."-Booklist

"TWELVE NIGHTS IN ROTTER HOUSE is the best haunted house book I've read in ages. Our skeptical tour guide is a film-fan narrator who knows all the horror tropes-how to riff on them, manipulate them, turn them into something fresh and frightening. I wanted to read the book in 'real time, ' to savor it so it would last the full twelve nights, but it got its hooks into me right away and I couldn't put it down once I started."-Norman Prentiss, Bram Stoker Award-winner, author of ODD ADVENTURES WITH YOUR OTHER FATHER
