THE SEPTEMBER HOUSE

Kimberly Farr narrates this creepy, mesmerizing story of Margaret and Hal, who purchase their dream home, a beautiful, haunted Victorian. Every September the walls drip blood, and the wailing specters wreak havoc, including admonitions about something in the basement. When Hal abruptly disappears, the couple's daughter, Katherine--oblivious to the house's mysteries--spearheads the manhunt. Farr portrays Margaret as practical; she loves the house and has found ways to make peace with it: One simply has to follow the rules. Listeners will resonate with Katherine's overwrought state of mind as she tries to make sense of her father's disappearance and her mother's lack of concern. Farr masters every unique character, alive or dead, in this one-woman show. L.M.G. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2023]
