This book is one of my favorite books. It is about a group of teen’s car that breaks down and they go to a house to call a mechanic. It is a huge house and weird stuff starts to happen. The “owners” leave and freaky stuff starts to happen. The teens find clues during the adventure and the magician tries his last trick – murder. Can the friends live these horrifying tricks? It is very suspenseful! Almost as good as “Twilight” series – or as good!
