********************************************************************************************
A young couple - Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson and his partner Karen Green - move into a small home on Ash Tree Lane.
But something is terribly wrong - their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.
Neither Will nor Karen are prepared to face the consequences of this impossibility until the day their two small children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story - of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams . . .
What happens next is loosely recorded on videotapes and interviews, leading an eccentric old man to compile - on loose sheets of paper, stained napkins, crammed notebooks - a definitive record of what took place at Ash Tree Lane that seems to unveil a thrilling and terrifying history.
Because these scraps of paper, old napkins and notebooks prove to be far more than the ramblings of a reclusive old man . . .
Immensely imaginative. Impossible to put down. Impossible to forget. House of Leaves is thrilling, terrifying and unlike anything you have read before.
