ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"How to Sell a Haunted House" by Grady Hendrix follows the story of Louise and her brother Mark as they return to their childhood home after their parents' sudden death. Louise is a practical woman, while Mark is more immature and embraces chaos. The siblings must deal with their grief while confronting a strange haunting within the house. The story explores how family secrets and unresolved trauma can manifest in unexpected and disturbing ways, as they are forced to confront the supernatural reality of their mother’s puppet collection, and especially one puppet called Pupkin. The narrative blends elements of horror with themes of family dynamics, grief, and the blurry line between reality and fantasy. The siblings must learn to communicate and come to terms with their past in order to move forward.
