One of a kind haunted house novel

A bizarre, brilliant, deranged story as only Edward Lee could tell it. A haunted house novel by way of Lee is not only savage, sexy, and way way out there, but it's also extremely well-researched and has a genuine authentic feel to it. Lee has put in plenty of time studying paranormal matters and fusing them with his backwoods kink horror, producing a whole new take on the trope of the haunted house. Horrific, nasty, insightful, and full of chills, if you dig Lee you'll love this one from start to finish. Highly recommended.

THE BEST HAUNTED HOUSE NOVEL YET

Just when I thought haunted houses had been done to death, Edward Lee throws in so many new turns, twists, and horrors, I couldn't believe it. The paranormal investigators in this book are totally unique, not overdone or done before, and there's no shortage of the heavy eroticism and well-crafted gore that Lee does better than anyone else. The horror never stops from the first page to the last, and this book's probably got the best shock ending of the year. Highly recommended.

House of Horrors!

I haven't read a lot of Edward Lee's books but of those I have Flesh Gothic has got to be one of his best. I love how his imagination takes on the haunted house storyline and weaves in satanic rituals. His books are filled with gore (some of it is alittle bit more than even I can handle, and I like some gory sh**). Definetly not for the faint of heart. This book was well written and I wish it would be turned into a movie, it would make a great horror film. Edward Lee is truly one of the masters of horrors. You can read the book description to find out what this book is about but I promise you, if you like horror you will love this book. The ending to almost all of his books that I have read so far blows my mind. Each of his books are orginal and I can't get enough of them. He is the first author that has kept me guessing right up to the very end. The only problem I have found with his writing is the in-depth details that he has, albeit most of them are necessary to the story, it is just a lot for my fragile mind to process at one time. Anywho, I think if you like most of today's horror writers and gore/sex doesn't bother you then please check out Edward Lee.

Quite possibly Lee's best!

Edward Lee takes a turn at the old "psychic investigators loose in the world's most haunted house" tale and delivers a devastating, wonderfully dark novel as only he can. After weeks of depravity, orgies, and murder, a Florida mansion is finally broken into by authorities for them only to find that the wealthy owner of the place has vanished leaving bloodshed in his wake. Presumed dead, his widow now hires a disparate group of investigators, psychics, empaths, and a recovering alcoholic writer to enter the house and see if they can make contact with any of the forces presumed to lurk there. Lee pulls out all the stops when it comes to sexual, spiritual, and psychic desires and energy. Crafting a tale where the powers that be draw in the team as well as anybody else unlucky enough to be anywhere near the premises, Lee gives us a very solid mystery among all the slaughter. he's done his research when it comes to psychic investigations and the beliefs therein. Stylish, hardcore, terrifying, and occasionally tongue-in-cheek, FLESH GOTHIC is probably Lee's best novel to date. It works on all cylinders, and will draw you into its bizarre and fantastic realms as surely as the guests are drawn into the dark heart of the house itself.
