Micaiah Johnson
A house, itself, is nothing. It’s not a shelter until it is sheltering someone. A house is a housefire, waiting for its match. A house is a ghost story, waiting for its death.
At the end of the Civil War, a daughter of the Confederacy made what she thought was an innocent wish: to build a house where nothing bad could happen. But peace came at a price, and one hundred and seventy years later Shantell and her friends are about to discover where all that darkness ended up.
When Shantell’s best friend, Avery, tells her he has inherited a house big enough to make their dreams of a sanctuary come true, she’s too cautious to be optimistic. A lifetime of loss — her father to the Iraq war, her brother to police violence, and her mother to suicide — has taught her cynicism, and even though Avery swears the house has never experienced a tragedy, she goes along expecting everything from black mold to evil spirits.
But not only is the house in better shape than they’d expected, it makes them better too: Shantell’s anxiety stops flaring up; terminally shallow Avery is suddenly capable of deeper emotions; and Tobias, Avery’s older brother and the contractor for the job, even quits chain smoking.
There’s an eeriness to the calm, and it’s almost a relief when they realize they do not walk alone in Abernathy House. If nothing bad has ever happened here, where are all these ghosts coming from? As they dig into the house’s history, Shantell, Avery, and Tobias discover that there’s only one thing worse than a house that’s haunted: a house that desperately wants to be.

批評家のレビュー
A Publishers Weekly Buzz Book
"A brilliant, spellbinding tale of terror that deftly interrogates privilege and generational trauma while scaring your socks off. You’ve never seen a haunted house like this one before.” —Kylie Lee Baker, USA Today bestselling author of Japanese Gothic
“‘No one comes to a ghost story hoping for survivors.’ The Unhaunting is one of the most original, imaginative, and terrifying takes on the haunted house genre I've read in a while. Micaiah Johnson has written a novel of unfathomable crimes, privilege, and the buried traumas of our past—that exposes both the horrors of the supernatural and the ones that lurk in our mundane world. Once you start reading, you will not want to put it down!” —P. Djeli Clark, award-winning author of Ring Shout
“Johnson breathes new life into an old horror trope in this clever inversion of the classic haunted house story . . . Johnson largely sidesteps ghostly phenomena to keep the focus on her well-developed Black protagonists, each of whom is haunted by past traumas the house exploits for its own macabre purposes… This chiller will be a hit with anyone seeking a fresh take on genre conventions.” —Publishers Weekly
"The Unhaunting charts the liminal middle ground between Shirley Jackson and Toni Morrison, mapping out the unnerving terrain that exists within the bated breath between Micaiah Johnson's beguiling words." —Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Ghost Eaters
“Anxiety-inducing from start to twisty end, The Unhaunting kept me up all night! As only Micaiah Johnson can deliver, this ingenious spin on the haunted house story explores how privilege, much like Abernathy House, is as mesmerizing as it is cruel, and the price it exacts is nothing short of horrific. Come inside, if you dare.” —Victor Manibo, author of The Villa, Once Beloved
