The Little Stranger Unravelled: Secrets and Hauntings in Post-War Britain
Some houses keep their secrets. Hundreds Hall keeps its ghosts close.
In Sarah Waters’ The Little Stranger, post-war England’s decay seeps into the bones of a crumbling country estate — and into the minds of its inhabitants. Called to Hundreds Hall on a routine visit, Dr. Faraday becomes entangled with the Ayres family as strange, unsettling events begin to consume the household. Is the house truly haunted, or is something far darker at play within?
