Summary: An In-Between Opinion
Review: Before I purchased this book, I had read the reviews on Amazon.com. I was a little hesitant as to whether or not to buy it, but I did. The reviews either raved about it or slammed it. I found myself able to read the book in two days. I consider my opinion to be a mixture of the other reviews I read. It does tend to ramble a bit, however, there are parts when it is spooky! She does talk about her family quite a bit, but that is to be expected when it HAPPENS to your family. After I finished this book (around 2am) I was afraid to get up to go to the bathroom. VERY UNLIKE ME! I'd say go for it! It makes for an interesting read. :)

Summary: Her house as an adult and my house as a child
Review: From the viewpoint of someone who moved in after this family, I thought the book was well written. This book brought back some memories and visions that were forgotten over the years. It was a book that made me see the house that I knew as home all over again and in a totally different light. My parents always had an explaination for any of the little perks that happened while we lived there. I could not put this book down. I have read the book, gave a copy of the book for a gift, asked friends to read it, and will be ordering another copy for my children. This book put me back in the house that I knew as a child and gave me goosebumps. My whole family has either read the book or are ordering the book. We have all had similiar responses to this book. It is great reading for anyone, as it is intriguing not scary. It puts you at the scene and is written in a way that keeps you interested. Eventhough I knew how the story would end, I could not put the book down until I had read the whole book. I just wish that I hadn't read the book so fast. I am looking forward to anymore books that Clara Miller will be writing. I can only hope that they are just as good. I truly believe, as the author said, that this house has some sort of force in and around it. Eventhough these strange things happened to her family in that house she felt a sense of love for that house. I feel the same way about that house and I will always think of that house as being my home no matter who lives there. I have never thought about my emotions regarding the house until this book. Now I wonder what hold this house really has on people. Two families afraid of this house but yet in love with this house (I can only speak for myself from my family when I say afraid of the house). As a child I had heard alot of stories about this house and the family that had lived there from the people of this small, country town and thought, as everyone else did, that this family was crazy. So, of course, I had to order the book to see what kind of lies were being told about my house. I was truly surprised when I related so well to everything that was written about my house. Through the author's words and description of my home she touched a core part of me that I never expected when I ordered the book. All in all this book is a must read for anyone and everyone. Don't miss out on this tremendously spectacular and easily understood reading (the Diary form made it very easy to put yourself there and more interesting than chapters).

Summary: Amazing if really true!
Review: I am a paranormal investigator and if all the things that Mrs. Miller says actually happened, I believe it would have made headlines around the world. I believe that something strange did happen to her family but I get the feeling a little salt was poured on for flavor. If all this is really true, I sympathize with the entire family and would apologize whole-heartedly but I found myself saying, "yeah right".

Summary: Creepy
Review: I had been hearing stories about this house but just recently read the book. I am hooked! This house is not far so on a lunch break a co-worker and I went to check it out. The house has peeling paint and looks neglected, but VERY real. The author's writing style is very earthy-like having a conversation with someone. A great read for anyone but especially those in this part of NY.

Summary: Kept me on the edge of my seat
Review: I have lived in Olean, NY my entire life, and have heard many stories about this house. I have seen the house, I have talked to people that have had strange experiences on and near the property. A few years ago I had the oppurtunity to read Clara's book, and I can agree with some of the other reviews it was difficult to put down. I read the book in about two days. The book is formatted like a diary, which I thought was interesting. It is pretty spooky, and will keep you on the edge of your seat.
