Welcome to Teaser Tuesday, a Meme, created by The Purple Booker, that wants you to add books to your TBR, or just share what you are currently reading. It is very easy to play along:
– Grab your current read
– Open to a random page
– Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
– BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
– Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! Everyone loves Teaser Tuesday.
Here’s my current read:
I’ve only read the first 5% so far but it was scary as shit! Don’t take my word for it, read a sample on Amazon. I’m really looking forward to reading more of this haunted house tale!
The Nightmare Room by Chris Sorensen
Here are my teasers (no spoilers):
“Three-quarters of that stretch was in pitch black. To get to the door, to get to the room, he had to dash through the darkness until his hand found the doorknob.”
“Coming in.
The door quivered as if someone was leaning against it, trying to stifle a laugh. Nails scratched against the wood.”
Amazon Blurb:
New York audiobook narrator Peter Larson and his wife Hannah head to his hometown of Maple City to help Peter’s ailing father and to put a recent tragedy behind them. Though the small, Midwestern town seems the idyllic place to start afresh, Peter and Hannah will soon learn that evil currents flow beneath its surface.
They move into an old farmhouse on the outskirts of town—a house purchased by Peter’s father at auction and kept secret until now—and start to settle into their new life.
But as Peter sets up his recording studio in a small basement room, disturbing things begin to occur—mysterious voices haunt audio tracks, malevolent shadows creep about the house. And when an insidious presence emerges from the woodwork, Peter must face old demons in order to save his family and himself.

Well if you start awake in the middle of the night, keep the screaming down to a shrill yelp… You’re braver than I am! I hope you go on being suitably terrified by this one:)
Thanks! I’m a little worried this one might be too much. :/
