Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A cultural history of the phenomenon of the 'haunted house' as seen through art, architecture, and ghost stories. What makes a house haunted? Why do some buildings conjure up a reputation for being particularly creepy, while others leave us unmoved? Barring the possibility of a looming afterlife, what are the particular features, contexts, and histories that lend a building the dreaded identity of haunted house?
