Witch House (Collier Nucleus Fantasy & Science Fiction)

For three hundred years the de Quincy clan had lived in the old house on the lonely New England island. People in the small town nearby stayed clear of the place; they knew that the de Quincys were trouble.. Now Elizabeth Ann Quincy Stone had stirred up the ancient menace. First she'd gone and married outside the family, to a well-meaning but weak-willed man who couldn't withstand the evil of Elizabeth's powerful brother, Joseph. Then she'd borne a child, and dared to try to raise her away from the ancestral manse.. But after her husband mysteriously died, the inheritance brought her back. And now her little girl was the next victim of the tortures refined over centuries by the obsessed, evil people who called themselves family. What hope could two innocents and a skeptical psychiatrist have against the heirs to the mantle of the mad, sadistic founder of...Witch House.
