“In a Dark Place” By Lorraine Warren & Ed Warren Review

The story of the most terrifying case of demonic possession in the United States. It became the basis for the hit film “The Haunting in Connecticut” starring Virginia Madsen. Shortly after moving into their new home, the Snedeker family is assaulted by a sinister presence that preys one-by-one on their family. Exhausting all other resources, they call up the world-renowned demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren—who have never encountered a case as frightening as this.

Here we are again talking about another book coming from Ed and Lorraine Warren. I gotta say that this book was much better than the previous book from the Warrens I’ve read. But it to be classify as good it has a long way to go.

I gotta admit that I never been a fan of the Warrens since I always thought that they were just scammers, and trying to make bucks telling the world lies. 

This book is pretty much a horror book rather than a nonfiction book. Because it doesn’t give us any evidence or proof that the things talked about in this book actually happened. So this book as the rest of the Warrens’s book are just a very word of mouth books. 

If you expect to hear a lot from the Warrens in this book, then you will get very surprised. Because 70% of this book is just a retellings of cases. And the Warrens only jump into the picture in the last 30% of this book. Which is really weird since this book is about their cases but we get almost nothing from them.

All the Warrens do in this book, is go into the house, say some prayers and then leave. Which is not great to admit to that in your own book. That you basically didn’t do anything to help those people if this case is real and not made up to sell this book. 

The writing style in this book is well, not the greatest. Sure it is easy and simple to understand. And it makes the entire book quick and fun in a way to read. But at the same time its just way too simple. 

The writing style feels like a writing style straight out of “Goosebumps” books which is of course meant for children. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
