Format:Paperback, 432 pages
Published In: United Kingdom, 04 May 2006
Haunted is a novel made up of stories: twenty-three of the most horrifying, hilarious, mind-blowing, stomach-churning tales you'll ever encounter. They are told by the people who have all answered an ad headlined 'Artists Retreat: Abandon your life for three months'. They are led to believe that here they will leave behind all the distractions of 'real life' that are keeping them from creating the masterpiece that is in them. But 'here' turns out to be a cavernous and ornate old theatre where they are utterly isolated from the outside world - and where heat and power and, most importantly, food are in increasingly short supply. And the more desperate the circumstances become, the more desperate the stories they tell - and the more devious their machinations to make themselves the hero of the inevitable play/movie/non-fiction blockbuster that will certainly be made from their plight.

About the Author

Chuck Palahniuk's eleven previous novels are the bestselling Tell-All, Pygmy, Snuff, Rant, Haunted, Lullaby, Diary, Choke - which has been made into a film by director Clark Gregg, starring Sam Rockwell and Anjelica Huston - Survivor, Invisible Monsters, and Fight Club, which was made into a film by director David Fincher. He is also the author of the nonfiction profile of Portland, Oregon, Fugitives and Refugees, and the nonfiction collection Stranger Than Fiction. He lives in the Pacific Northwest.

Reviews

"By turns nauseating, darkly funny and brutally graphic" Observer "A triumph... A novel of exceptional originality... Wonderful... A remarkable book, the most original work of fiction this year" Guardian "An immensely skilful writer" Daily Telegraph "Deeply satirical, brutal and provocative, Haunted is harshly compulsive, eye-bleeding stuff" I-D "I laughed until my ribs ached" -- Simon Shaw Daily Mail

5 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 04/10/2011

This was the second Chuck Palahniuk book I've read and I must admit, I've got every other one of his now on my wishlist. I couldn't put it down. It's creepy, intriguing and just plain out there. It's one of those books that keeps you thinking long after you've finished it.

4 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 06/01/2009

This book was very well writtten and very...descriptive
but i got lost in the middle of it as i kept confusing all the characters.
Everything kind of goes crazy, guess that happens when a bunch of
people get locked up in a mansion with no contact with anyone except
the people they're locked up with.
But overall it was a great read, exciting and slightly disturbing

4 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 10/06/2007

Normally when a chuck palahniuk book comes out i'm riddled with anticipation and normally when i've finished the book i'm on a high from another greatly crafted book. This book was not so though, its good, a lot better than many books currently for sale, and you could definately do worse, but for me this book just doesn't hold your attention long enough, and with the book ending up somewhere along the 500 page mark it suffers because of it. Theres too many characters to follow and overall it wanders aimlessly around until the end leaving you a little underwhelmed.
