Honk/like/share if you've also owned this book in the 1980s!

Finished #HouseOfHell. Oufff... the insane layout of the corridors, landings and rooms may be excused by the theme. What I didn't see back in the 80s, but what was glaringly obvious this time around was all the padding. How many sections are wasted on the torture chamber or the kitchen? Enter either and you're already dead. It is finally too picky with respect to finding the one true path. Too many absurd deaths. Nevertheless, a nice trip down memory lane.

#HouseOfHell is a mixed bag. On the one hand, it has very nice (even if clichéd) moments of slow, psychological horror. On the other hand, it has zombies in a kitchen, a vampire sitting in an armchair, skeletons in the closet... i.e. a lot of fairground haunted house shocks which honestly feel out of place. Isn't this the story of a satanic cult wanting to sacrifice a woman? Why do they have zombies roaming around?
