Spoilers ahead!

I finished reading this over the course of the weekend. The fact that it was about haunted houses was what intrigued me. I did like how the book ended but there was one thing that confused me about the ending. The main character offered to sacrifice himself to save his friends but he was able to get out anyway. One of his friends said that maybe his offer of sacrifice maybe appeased the ghost enough to let everyone go, including him. But when he looked back at the house, he saw the ghost and someone that looked an awful lot like himself. I’m just wondering if the ghost let him go but maybe kept his soul or kept some part of him…..? I don’t know.

THEY’VE LOST CONTROL OF THE HAUNTED HOUSE.

Every year, the town of Happy Hills holds its haunted house contest. In a spooky old manor, teams of kids come up with new ways to frighten people. The scariest team wins.

This year, however, all the teams are going to lose. Because this year the house itself has awakened…and it won’t be happy until it’s devoured all the people inside. What started out as a game has turned into something much more deadly.

IS THERE ANY WAY OUT?
