The setting of The Seance is England in the Victorian era.
Wraxford Hall, a dilapidated, remote, and peculiar mansion somewhere in England, has an ill reputation. A family disappeared from here, and the woods around it are shunned by everyone - supposedly they are haunted. The new owner of the mansion is Constance Langston, a young lady who comes from a star-crossed family: Her sister died, thus her grieving mother's mental state deteriorated. Constance, to help her mother, lures her to a seance... however, things turns much worse. As a result, Constance inherits Wraxford Hall...
Highly recommended to every horror fan who loves well-composed, atmospheric books, haunted house stories like Stephen King's The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red or Adam Nevill's Apartment 16.
