Cited by H.P. Lovecraft as 'perhaps the greatest of all Mr. Hodgson's works', The House on the Borderland tells of a deserted home in Ireland that hints at a terrifying evil. When two men encounter the enigmatic ruins of a house, they slowly uncover its secrets through the diary of its previous tenant. Accompanied by four gripping short stories, Hodgson's masterful writing leads the reader into a nightmarish world from which there may be no escape. At each turn of the page, horrors begin to unfold, monsters are revealed and new dimensions exposed.

The House On The Borderland & Other Creepy Stories
Such an incredibly complex story! I had to buy it because there was a waiting list of 30+ at the local library for this book. Thrilled that I made the purchase
I read this book shortly after I got it and didn't just put it on my TBR shelf mainly because I saw it on Reese Witherspoon's bookclub September read. It was one of the best books I've read this year, and reminded me some of Kristen Hannah's The Great Alone.
