  • Jackson character you think would be the last person to survive in a horror movie: Merricat Blackwood. Not just because she would likely murder or hex anyone who got in her way but also because she would do anything to protect her own world (and sister). <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The thing that would haunt you if you were in a Jackson story: Being dangled from the top of a tall building. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Top reason HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE is the perfect novel: not a single word is out of place or excessive. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    1. Jackson character you think would be the last person to survive in a horror movie: Fancy from The Sundial<\/em>, because she plays the long game and gets her crown. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. The thing that would haunt you if you were in a Jackson story: loud chewing noises<\/li>\n\n\n\n

      1. Jackson character you think would be the last person to survive in a horror movie: Merricat and Jonas. I know choosing two is cheating, but they are a team. Merricat’s knowledge of poison would make her a formidable opponent. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. The thing that would haunt you if you were in a Jackson story: Not sure, but I’d probably try to escape it by running away on the bus like Louisa in “Louisa, Please Come Home”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
