Erika T. Wurth is one of the most exciting writers in horror right now, and it’s easy to see why. From the very start of her latest, The Haunting of Room 904, you’re on the edge of your seat as we follow Olivia, a real deal clairvoyant and the best in the business. But a few emotional encounters with spirits, she’s set on a path to investigate something truly dark and twisted that may just reveal something about her sister’s tragic death years earlier. If that’s not enough, it’s all tied in with the slaughter of the Cheyenne people at the Sand Creek Massacre in 1864 and the vengeful spirits that created. At their core, all ghost stories are about trauma and loss, and in The Haunting of Room 904, Wurth explores this on multiple levels—both cultural and generational, and personal trauma. But perhaps the most compelling part of this novel is the way care, friendship, and atonement remain present alongside the horrors. Wurth’s latest hits on multiple levels, and is sure to keep you turning pages. Just make sure to keep the lights on.
