The Twitching House
In this house, the smallest residents see the biggest horrors…
It’s no longer safe in the meadow.
A mouse named Nettle flees with her newborn pups into the Red House.
But something wicked lives deep within the Red House. It’s already haunting the human family inside.
This evil won’t take kindly to a family of mice getting involved. But Nettle can’t abandon a pup in danger, even if it’s the kind human pup who the wicked thing has targeted.
The Twitching House is a horror tale about mice, malevolence, and how we define “home,” from acclaimed horror writer Ben Farthing, “The King of Creepy” (M.J. Mars).

A Unique Haunted House Story
Imagine Mrs Frisby from The Rats of Nihm, but instead of a lab, she's in a haunted, possessed house. And the theme is home and family, not anti-animal testing. But you get the gist.
This is the first book I have read by Farthing, and it's fantastic. Gripping, scary, full of heart, and a unique point of view. Definitely recommended.
