Asylum by Madeleine Roux


Book Nerd 
"Spooktacular" Giveaway Hop




Asylum is a thrilling and creepy photo-novel perfect for fans of the New York Times bestseller Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

For sixteen-year-old Dan Crawford, New Hampshire College Prep is more than a summer program—it's a lifeline. An outcast at his high school, Dan is excited to finally make some friends in his last summer before college. But when he arrives at the program, Dan learns that his dorm for the summer used to be a sanatorium, more commonly known as an asylum. And not just any asylum—a last resort for the criminally insane.

As Dan and his new friends, Abby and Jordan, explore the hidden recesses of their creepy summer home, they soon discover it's no coincidence that the three of them ended up here. Because the asylum holds the key to a terrifying past. And there are some secrets that refuse to stay buried.

Featuring found photos of unsettling history and real abandoned asylums and filled with chilling mystery and page-turning suspense, Madeleine Roux's teen debut, Asylum, is a horror story that treads the line between genius and insanity.

  15. I'd say Twilight. Sparkling vampires are *terrifying* :-P But seriously, books don't tend to spook me. Movies or tv, sometimes, but never books.

  18. I don't think any book scared me more than some of the Fear Street books did when I was younger. Helter Skelter really creeped me out when I was older... I read it at night when I was alone... probably not a good idea!
