Produktbeschreibung
In The House in the Middle of the Street, Jennifer Sklias-Gahan conjures a haunting modern fairy tale of inheritance, secrets, and the creatures we invite into our lives. When Rebecca and her husband inherit a stately old home, they imagine it as the perfect place to build their family. But as the seasons turn, shadowy visitors begin to arrive—children who are not what they seem, guests with appetites beyond bread. Bound by ancestral debts and ancient instructions, Rebecca and her descendants are drawn into a chilling cycle of desire, duty, and haunting. With prose that shimmers like a spell and imagery as vivid as a fever dream, Sklias-Gahan offers a dark winter tale that recalls the cautionary power of the Brothers Grimm while speaking directly to the anxieties of our time. The House in the Middle of the Street is a gothic exploration of legacy, survival, and the perilous cost of letting others in.

Jennifer Sklias-Gahan grew up in New York City in a Greek-American household rich with folklore, myths, and oral traditions.

She has since built a career as a writer, actor, and producer, and is the founder of Demivoula Studios and co-founder of 18 Bleecker Films. The House in the Middle of the Street is her debut work of fiction. She lives in New York with her husband and their two children.
