Black House

In Black House, Stephen King and Peter Straub reunite the characters from The Talisman as retired detective Jack Sawyer is drawn into the investigation of a string of brutal child murders in a small Wisconsin town. As he follows a trail of grisly clues, Jack confronts a malevolent force that seems to bridge ordinary reality and the eerie alternate world known as the Territories, forcing him to face past traumas and the darkest impulses of both killer and community. Tense, atmospheric, and steeped in folk horror, Black House blends police procedural, supernatural terror, and psychological depth into a haunting story of evil that refuses to stay buried.
