Single mom Harry Adams has always loved horror movies, so when she’s offered a job cleaning for revered horror director Javier Castillo, she leaps at the chance. His forbidding Chicago mansion, Bright Horses, is filled from top to bottom with terrifying props and costumes, as well as glittering awards from his decades-long career making films that thrilled audiences and dominated the box office―until family tragedy and scandal forced him to vanish from the industry.
Javier values discretion, so Harry tries to clean the house immaculately and keep her head down―she needs the money from this job to support her son. But then she starts hearing noises from behind a locked door. Noises that sound remarkably like a human voice calling for help, though Javier lives alone and never has visitors. Harry knows that not asking questions is a vital part of keeping her job, but she soon finds that the house―and her enigmatic boss―have secrets she can’t ignore…
After reading The House That Horror Built, I brought the terror into my own home and now it won't leave. Christina Henry has me questioning every creak, every warping floorboard, every stray sound around my house and now I can't sleep at night. There's something in the walls of this novel and it watches you while you read.

For years now Christina Henry has been showing us the cracks in the world, and the magic passing through. Now she leads us not to a large crack, but to four hairline tears. I followed her down each of them, and I got lost, and wished I'd never find my way back
