Once connected, never can a bond be broken….

Based on a true haunting the author himself experienced.

In 2016, John Davidson and his family moved to Skipton Road, a quiet cul-de-sac situated within the heart of a northern industrial town, in the hope of improving their lives. However, they had no idea of what evil terrors awaited them. Things appeared normal at first…apart from the pungent smell of rotted flesh in their kitchen, recurring scratch marks along the walls, and an overwhelming sense of always being watched by someone or something. Overtime. Through a series of vivid nightmares and intrusive whispers, the Davidsons came to learn of a malignant menace that still dwelled within their new home – a witch named Sabina, who sought out vengeance upon those who had betrayed her in life, and an ancient demon that referred itself as “Baal”. Throughout these horrific events, John struggled against his growing depression, his new reliance on alcohol, and the overall strong desire to keep his family from falling apart…which it sadly was. This terrifying period in their lives would forever haunt the Davidsons, as it did with countless other victims before them.

In reading this novel you will bear witness to an actual haunting that took place, its lasting effect on those involved, and one that many people can verify. Some include the author, would argue that Sabina and the ancient demon do exist. It’s up to you as the reader to decide.

“Once connected, never can a bond be broken…”

Relocating from the quiet suburbs of London to the northern industrial town of Newton Escomb, to a small cul-de-sac there named Skipton Road. Was already a challenge for Christopher Joyce and his family…and nothing could have prepared them for what malevolent horrors awaited them. Unbeknown to the Joyces, their new home bore a terrible and bloody past that was steeped in witchcraft and satanic worship.

Christopher was a firm sceptic of anything paranormal, as was his wife, Amy, but that soon changed when two demonic beings made their presence and sordid intensions known through many terrifying apparitions and vivid nightmares. Already held in a vulnerable state because of her depression, Amy gradually succumbed to the powerful influence of these dark spirits, namely a fallen witch who possessed a desperate thirst for vengeance against men-Sabina. As the unnatural connection between Amy and Sabina grew, Christopher was left with no choice but to act. After all, he had his and Amy’s young children to protect as well.

Through the help of strangers and past acquaintances of Skipton Road, Christopher steadily became obsessed with discovering the truth behind what haunted his family. However, there lurked an even greater darkness within the shadows-Baal, an ancient demon-Sabina’s master. The Joyces had unwittingly found themselves embroiled in a battle between the warring spirits, and it would change their lives forever…

First published in 1959, Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House has been hailed as a perfect work of unnerving terror. It is the story of four seekers who arrive at a notoriously unfriendly pile called Hill House: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of a “haunting”, Theodora, his lighthearted assistant; Eleanor, a friendless, fragile young woman well acquainted with poltergeists; and Luke, the future heir of Hill House. At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable phenomena. But Hill House is gathering its powers – and soon it will choose one of them to make its own.
