Publisher's Summary:
I can never remember the details after I wake up, but I've had the same nightmare too many times throughout the years, more than I can count. Recently I asked my brothers and sisters if they ever dream about the old house. Some tell me they do--of a room that wasn't there. That settles it. I'm turning this story over to my twelve-year-old incorrigible self. Only a scrawny kid skidding awkwardly toward puberty can explain how it feels to be haunted by the sins of his father, hunted by the town bullies, and taunted by a cantankerous ghost.

Clever, mysterious, spooky, and a pull-you-in plot. Norma Pyper Mitchell writes fun stuff. I'll be looking forward to moreâI hope there's more.
great story line
Didn't capture me like the last one but I felt related to the story somehow. Can't wait for the next one!
Absolutely LOVED this book!!
Absolutely LOVED this!! I swear I could've read at least 5 more years worth & was saddened the book ended
It's 1972 & the Marshall family moves to a huge home in Jonesville. It's told through the POV of Jake Marshall who is 12 years old. He has 3 other brothers,& 3 sisters
It's a work of fiction but based on a real family, a real town & maybe the ghost of "cousin Harold"
The main book is all about this curious, highly imaginative & sometimes brave, sometimes cowardly 12 year old boy who is bullied by the older boys.
The stories are about a year long stay in this house after his parents divorce. It's the biggest house they ever lived in, & also maybe the only haunted house too
I can't do the stories justice like the author, but I could've kept reading & reading. She's either a highly entertaining storyteller, or maybe, just maybe, she was part of this story?
The ending was very unexpected in some ways with confession of the father but it explained the reason for the divorce of his parents
The subsequent ending has all the children, except the youngest, going back 30 years later to revisit cousin Harold's house & remembering the fun they had, & the scares they had. Or was it all just overactive, imaginative minds at work in their past & present yet?
I'll say it again.... I LOVED this book!! :) & I highly recommend it!
I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway & sure glad I did!! Thanks to the author & publisher

I loved this book about a single mother handling life with her kids, and the strange happenings in the house they rent. For a real treat, listen to it on Audible. That's what I did when I was driving back from Montana in a record-breaking rainstorm. I as so intrigued, I forgot to be afraid of the drive and was really disappointed when the book was over and I still had four hours to drive. This is a great read. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of Harold's House. You'll be glad you did.
