The year is 1966, and it's party time. With Halloween right around the corner, two teens decide to take their friends out for the night of their lives. Even better, they've heard rumors of an abandoned haunted house deep in the Kent countryside.

When Johnny and Hayley arrive at Hadlow House, they think they've struck gold. The house is everything they were hoping for, having been left untouched since a fire ravaged the structure many years ago. As far as they can tell, no-one has set foot in the place for more than a decade.

Soon, however, the friends discover that they're not alone. As their night of fun and debauchery takes a series of dark turns, they're forced to face the awful truth. Hadlow House might have been abandoned, but that doesn't mean it's empty. And whatever lurks in the shadows is coming for them.

1966 is the eleventh book in the Haunting of Hadlow House series, which tells the story of one haunted house over the centuries from its construction to the present day. All the lives, all the souls, all the tragedies... and all the ghosts. Readers are advised to start with the first book in the series.
