Reviews
"Reading a Palahniuk novel is like getting zipped inside a boxer's heavy bag while the author goes to work on you, pounding you until there is nothing left but a big bag of bones and blood and pain." -The Miami Herald "To Palahniuk's credit, there is something here to appall almost every sensibility. The author has a singular knack for coming up with inventive new ways to shock and degrade." -The New York Post "Frequently entertaining [and] often appalling. . . . There are paragraphs here-entire pages, in fact-that are as disgusting as anything I've ever read. Truly vivid and harrowing (and often quite funny)." -Minneapolis Star Tribune

Synopsis
Hauntedby Chuck Palahniuk is a novel made up of stories: Twenty-three of them, to be precise. Twenty-three of the most horrifying, hilarious, mind-blowing, stomach-churning tales you'll ever encounter-sometimes all at once. They are told by people who have answered an ad headlined "Writers' Retreat: Abandon Your Life for Three Months," and who are led to believe that here they will leave behind all the distractions of "real life" that are keeping them from creating the masterpiece that is in them. But "here" turns out to be a cavernous and ornate old theater where they are utterly isolated from the outside world-and where heat and power and, most important, food are in increasingly short supply. And the more desperate the circumstances become, the more extreme the stories they tell-and the more devious their machinations become to make themselves the hero of the inevitable play/movie/nonfiction blockbuster that will surely be made from their plight. Hauntedis on one level a satire of reality television-The Real WorldmeetsAlive. It draws from a great literary tradition-The Canterbury Tales,The Decameron, the English storytellers in the Villa Diodati who produced, among other works,Frankenstein-to tell an utterly contemporary tale of people desperate that their story be told at any cost. Appallingly entertaining,Hauntedis Chuck Palahniuk at his finest-which means his most extreme and his most provocative.

    Package arrived on time. It was securely packaged, and nothing was damaged. The medallion is beautiful and boxed - looked just like it was described. Other similar items were also being offered on Ebay - however I think I got the best value from this seller. Would purchase from seller again.

  • Incredible stories.

    This book is bound together with poems and stories told by the characters with very interesting tales. Some the stories in the book are very very chilling. Chuck doesn't disappoint and tells a very great story with Haunted. This book immediately starts off with a huge bang that's unforgettable and will stay in mind for weeks. Chuck will further change your perception on life, struggles, and reality.
