The house held secrets, Thomas knew, even before he first saw it looming gray and massive on its ledge of rock.

The House of Dies Drear is a very mysterious book. It was not scary and it was really weird. It might make you stay up all night.
The House of Dies Drear is in amazing book that comes with a lot of creepy mystery.The triangle that some one found was the creepiest for me. Pluto acts different in the night.He acts creepy in the night and in the morning ha acts normal.Its like ha has a twin I thought that it was going to be more creepy because of the title but it wasn't and I also thought that there was going to be ghosts I give it an 8/10 because I thought it was going to be more creepy but it was not creepy and I like creepy books.It was okay because it was kind of creepy.
Dies Drear and the three slave ghosts still haunt the rooms of the 3 story house that they were murdered in. The ghosts still haunt the underground tunnels of the house of dies drear. I thought that the House of Dies Drear was going to be scary but the only part that scared me was when Thomas went down in the underground tunnels and incounterd the three slave ghosts and heard a a'ing sound. I know that some of you guys might like the House of Dies Drear but I would give it a 4 out of 5 stars.
House of Dies Drear was an amazing book. It had hidden clues, hidden message, and a secret passage. It wasn't scary at all but I still liked it . I thought it would have been scarier but it wasn't. When we first read the book I expected an exciting book. My favorite part was when Thomas found a tunnel that was a rail road track. Then someone said boo.

Do you like thrillers and historical mystery books? If you do, read House of Dies Drear. It is magnificent it relates back to the time of the slaves. Your eyes will be locked on it all night you will not want to sleep. Thomas and Mr and Mrs Small moved into the House of Dies Drear. There is a man named Pluto and when Thomas thought he was the devil. He thought Pluto trashed their kitchen. They found out it the Darrow boys. They found out Pluto has a son named Mayhew.
