Review
Praise for Asylum (;)

“The plentiful illustrations both advance the story line and immeasurably contribute to the spooky atmosphere. With its abundant jump scares, horror readers and fans of the TV show American Horror Story will delight in the fast-paced plot.” (Booklist)

“Illustrations used in this book are from actual asylums, and the author builds the tension nicely as Dan receives what may be messages from an inmate. A good choice for readers who enjoy books with scary situations that lead to a solid climax.” (Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA))

“A strong YA debut. Roux (aided by unsettling photo illustrations of abandoned asylums and tormented patients) creates an entertaining and occasionally brutal horror story that reveals the enduring impact of buried trauma and terror on a place.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Madeleine Roux’s Asylum takes the fondest dream of our collective nerdy childhood and handily turns it into the scariest collective nightmare.” (Tor.com)

“I started reading this one at my desk in broad daylight and still got goose bumps.” (Glamour)
From the Back Cover
There are three sides to every story…

Before Dan, Abby, and Jordan ever set foot inside the Brookline asylum, its legacy of terror stretched far and deep. Be careful where you go digging in history. Sometimes the past is better off buried. . . .

Enter the twisted world of the New York Times bestselling Asylum series with these three bone-chilling novellas, available in print for the first time and featuring new found photographs. Also includes bonus sneak peeks at Asylum, Sanctum, and Catacomb, for readers who are brave enough to put all the puzzle pieces together.
