Summary

Welcome to the Woodfield Movie Palace. The night the Titanic sank, it opened for business...and its builder died in his chair. In the 1950s, there was a fire; a balcony full of people burned to death. And years later, when it became the scene of one of Harmony, Indiana's most notorious murders, it closed for good. Abandoned, sealed, locked up tight...until now. Tonight, Professor Geoffrey Burke and his Parapsychology students have come to the Woodfield in search of evidence, hoping to find irrefutable proof of a haunting. Instead, they will discover that, in this theater, the terrors are not confined to the screen.

Cinema of Shadows is one of the growing Harmony, Indiana collection of horror tales from Michael West that also includes Spook House, Goodnight, For the River is Wide and the Gods are Hungry, and The Wide Game.

Cnema

This was very good.I enjoyed it! Kim is part of a class on parapsychology...I think.The teacher wants people who have had unexplained events in their lives.They get more than they sign up for! Nila Brereton Hagood was a fine narrator. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.'

Loved this

I really enjoyed this, I started with book 3 (Spook House) which I loved and then I bought this one, as I'd enjoyed Spook House so much, and this did not disappoint me at all. It is hilarious at times, terrifying at others, but more importantly, it was fun all the way through and I love Nila's narration.

My biggest concern for 2020 is when will 'The Wide Game' (book 1) be released as I'm on tenterhooks waiting for it ...

Conclusion : Buy this if you love old school horror, I think you will love it too.

Good Horror Story

This was a fun read, and took me right back to when I first started reading horror (mainly Stephen King and Christoper Pike) as a child. I liked the writing, it has a very 70s feel to it, though it is set present day for the most part.
Creepy and very much a slow burner, which is how I like my horror (modern horror just doesn't cut it for me - too much unnecessary gore for the sake of it and not enough build up or characterisation).
From a narration point, it felt like it took a little while for Hagood to really get into the swing of it, but she does a good job bringing this book to life. I think this would make a decent adaptation to the screen as well.
