Bad Things Happened in This Room
Bad Things Happened in This Room | Marie Still
1 post | 1 read
Bad Things Happened In This Room is a chilling psychological horror that descends into madness where the walls whisper, and secrets are buried in the garden; perfect for fans of Carissa Orlando and The Yellow Wallpaper, exploring motherhood, grief, and the thin line between reality and delusion. In this haunting psychological horror, Willow's life has become a fever dream, her days lost in a twisted loop where time no longer flows as it should. Is she held captive by her husband Liam's iron rules--or by the insidious darkness of her own mind? Her only connection to the world beyond her walls is a young girl named Sarah, whose unexpected visits to Willow's garden spark a glimmer of hope. But as cracks form in her carefully controlled existence, horrifying truths seep through, twisting the familiar into something sinister. The floral wallpaper peels back to reveal haunting messages carved into the walls, and the house itself pulses with malevolent life. When Sarah suddenly vanishes, Willow is forced to confront the dark shadows of her past and the horrors lurking within her fractured psyche. The question remains: is Willow truly a prisoner of her home, or of her own mind? Some doors, once opened, can never be closed. And some truths are better left buried in the garden.

Well, that was an experience. I'm not saying it was all good—for the majority of the book, you have to just go with it despite not having a damn clue WTF is going on. The ending brings enlightenment that makes it all worth it, somehow.
🎙️Stephanie Nemeth Parker‘s narration was excellent; she definitely nailed the tone.
