A family feeds on fear by trapping neighbors in a haunted house.

The house becomes a labyrinth of nightmares where victims face challenges that amplify their worst fears. Waggoner writes from the perspective of those being hunted, showing how the Eldreds create realms to entrap prey. This work examines the mechanics of fear and predation within a suburban setting. It does not focus on historical periods but rather on immediate supernatural threat. The story remains grounded in the present moment of the characters' terror. Readers interested in the dynamics of power and consumption will find this compelling. Those who prefer clear moral boundaries may struggle with the ambiguity of the Eldreds' existence.
