"The Haunting of Hill House" by Shirley Jakcson is an economical, riveting horror Gothic that set the literary standard for horror Gothics of the 20th century. I like my horror restrained and psychological, and this book delivers.

Agreed! I also enjoyed We Have Always Lived in the Castle, also by Shirley Jackson. I found this book to be even more disturbing than Hill House.

Yes! Another excellent Gothic novel, very Lizzie Borden in tone.
