The No-End House

In the tradition of Stephen King, Alma Katsu, and Christopher Golden's evil supernatural twists, two strangers unwittingly volunteer for the ultimate haunted house challenge in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter.Nine rooms. Nine tests. One chance to get out alive. No one makes it to the end of The No-End House.It's the ultimate haunted house challenge. A crumbling stone mansion nestled in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, it may be the best-kept secret in Europe—a little-known attraction featuring nine escape rooms to explore, nine puzzles to solve, and a large cash prize for anyone who makes it to the end. There's just one catch: no one makes it to the end of The No-End House. . . .

“A heart-stopping twist on the traditional haunted house story. With The No-End House, Jeremy Bates is at the top of his game.” —Jeff Menapace, bestselling author of the Bad Games series

“The No-End House is like Eli Roth’s Hostel by way of Dante’s Inferno, ushering its protagonists—and the reader—through increasingly bizarre scenarios until the final, excitable denouement. It’s more than just a haunted house novel; it’s a puzzle box of mounting dread. A treat for readers who like their horror served up with a side order of what the hell is going on? Highly recommended.” —Ronald Malfi, bestselling author of Small Town Horror

“Jeremy Bates’s The No-End House is a hell of an adventure. It’s a savage, unpredictable, zigzagging trip through the torturous puzzles of an impossible escape room. Each twist will have you second-guessing the next, and wherever you think the story is heading, you’re wrong. Cruel, dark, and highly recommended.” —David Moody, author of Hater and Shadowlocked

“I could not put down The No-End House. Jeremy Bates is a fearless and vivid storyteller, and the book is a wild, unpredictable ride that delivers thrills, chills, twists, and turns in equal measure. It’s my favorite kind of book—one that steals your heart, keeps you on the edge of your seat, and leaves you thinking long after you’ve turned the last page.” —Luisa Colón, author of Bad Moon Rising and The Burning Class

“I’ve been a fan of Jeremy Bates for a long time, and this is some of his best work. The No-End House is an intense psychological thriller and visceral horror novel that’s full of surprises. What a gripping, immersive experience that kept me guessing to the very end.” —Richard Thomas, Bram Stoker and Shirley Jackson Awards finalist and author of Disintegration and Breaker
