Originalmente publicado em 1954 e lançado pela primeira vez em língua portuguesa nesta edição, O ninho do pássaro é um romance menos conhecido de Shirley Jackson, mas não menos impactante. A maestria da autora de A assombração da Casa da Colina aqui expressa a plenitude do título de "rainha do terror", atribuído a ela por mestres do gênero, como Stephen King. Elizabeth Richmond, ou Lizzie, sente dores de cabeça quase todos os dias.

Sozinha no mundo, Eleanor fica encantada ao receber uma carta do dr. Montague convidando-a para passar um tempo na Casa da Colina, um local conhecido por suas manifestações fantasmagóricas.

Porém, o que começa como uma exploração bem-humorada de um mito inocente se transforma em uma viagem para os piores pesadelos de seus hóspedes. Com o tempo, fica cada vez mais claro que a sanidade — e a vida — de todos está em risco.
