Five Nights in a Haunted Cabin Kindle Edition
In 2013, bestselling horror authors Tamara Thorne and Alistair Cross were working on their first collaborative novel and had yet to meet in person. That all changed when they got together to investigate an allegedly haunted cabin in California’s Gold Country.
The cabin’s owner and his family had fled the building on two occasions, beset by anomalies ranging from poltergeist phenomena to a darkly looming apparition. They wanted answers and were referred to author and long-time paranormal investigator Tamara Thorne. She and Alistair Cross decided that a few days and nights in a haunted cabin was the perfect setting for their first face-to-face meeting.
They ended up spending five nights documenting the phenomena inside - and outside - the little log cabin tucked deep in the woods. By turns intrigued and terrorized, Thorne & Cross not only came away with great story ideas, they left the cabin with a new definition of horror.

About the authors
I started writing at an early age, mostly science fiction, but when I was 11 I found Shirley Jackson's Haunting of Hill House and the course was set. Nowadays, my haunting research for novels has brought me another career -- investigating for people with problems. Life imitates art.
See the bio page on my website for more in-depth and somewhat true details.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2018It’s a “things that go bump in the night” type of scary. It has cuckoo clocks that cry out at strange times, scratching noises on walls and doors. Then there is an unnerving silence, as if the wind is afraid to breath. All of the disturbances can be attributed to logical explanations. Or maybe not! THIS is what makes the book extra creepy.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2018This short book was a fun, one-sitting read. I recommend people read the description first (don’t expect Amityville or Poltergeist). This is the story of an actual investigation these two authors performed. The creepiness of the cuckoo clock and knocking on the door really caught me. I especially liked the end when they explain the cabin’s history, which they didn’t learn beforehand in order to avoid it influencing any findings (ghost shows on TV should take note of that). The only question I have: what happened to Alistair’s copy of Twilight and the Talking Board? I there was no mention of what may have happened to them in the conclusions. All in all, a good read for those interested in paranormal investigations.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2016I enjoyed Five Nights In A Haunted Cabin. It is has a real creep factor to it. If you are expecting the big bang, blood flowing down the walls, silly stuff like in the movies or a fictional account then you will be disappointed. I wanted to spend the DAY here, I will leave the nights to the authors.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2016I look forward to reading everything new that comes out from Thorne and Cross. This is a non-fiction account of Alistair and Tamara's first face to face meeting in a "Haunted Cabin". I Love everything new these authors turn out. This story is scary.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2018I thought this book was quite interesting ,especially since it inspired so many scenes in Tamara Thorne and Alistair Cross' novels.Very quick read.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2017True story about Alistair Cross and Tamara Thorne. Their first meeting in a haunted cabin, loved the way they told this story.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2016This was so much fun. It made me wish I'd been there with the authors. Except for those last few nights anyway lol. Creepy stuff. Also as a non-fiction account, I appreciated the honesty and the mystery. Too many non-fiction ghost stories go way over the top. This was an awesome little book full of lots of information I didn't know, and it was a lot of fun. Highly recommended for ghost hunters and casual readers alike.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2017Damn cuckoo clock has me creeped out. Sleeping with the lights on for sure. Creepy as hell. Good quick read.
