Horror House — Paulette Warren
THE MONSTER'S LAIR
Those who knew Jonah Garh best referred to him as the Monster - and Terry Lawrence, summoned to the great industrialist's home to write his biography, soon understood why. As she listened hour after hour to Jonah's tape-recorded memoirs - the dry facts and calculated evasions - the terrible evil of the man was slowly revealed.
But not even the tapes gave Terry a clue to the frightening dreams that assailed her at Garth House...to the strange creature that pounded on her door and shuffled unseen through the midnight corridors...to the horrible secret of the house's locked-up west wing.
And when death at last came to Garth House, and Terry learned the real reason she was being kept there, it was too late for escape - too late for anything but the loss of love...and a bitter, macabre fate....
