This House is Haunted (2013) by John Boyne is a ghost story.


The year is 1867 and Eliza Caine decides to leave London to take up a position in Norfolk as governess of 2 children at Gaudlin Hall.


What she doesn't know is that she's not employed by the parents – they aren’t around – but the lawyer of the estate.


What she also doesn’t know is that there is a malevolent presence at Gaudlin Hall, a presence that wants Eliza gone, like the governesses before her.
