The Haunting Of Hill House
by Jackson, Shirley
The Haunting of Hill House
by Shirley Jackson is widely considered one of the best literary ghost stories

Gothic tale tells the story of socially repressed Eleanor Vance and three
others who head to Hill House to partake in an experiment involving paranormal
activities.
