The Rising by Chris Harrison

Crooked House, a once-grand hotel now shrouded in an eerie silence, is a magnet for whispers of the supernatural. Believed to be one of Britain’s most haunted locations, its history is steeped in unsolved murders and chilling tales of the paranormal.

For wannabe influencer Kane Jackson and his best friend JJ, Crooked House presents the perfect opportunity to boost their online presence. But their quest for fame takes a terrifying turn when they stumble upon a malevolent force far more sinister than any ghost.

Drawn into the mystery are Kane’s rebellious younger brother Zach, the headstrong Meridia Wilson, and the precocious Izzy Di Salvo. As they delve deeper into the hotel’s chilling secrets, they realize they’re not alone. A malevolent entity feeds on their fears, pushing them to the brink of sanity.

Desperate for answers, they seek help from Peter Higginsworth, a renowned historian and paranormal expert. Together, this unlikely team must unravel the hotel’s dark history, confront the terrifying forces within, and ultimately decide who they can truly trust.

The Rising is a chilling young adult supernatural horror novel that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. With atmospheric prose and unforgettable characters, Chris Harrison delivers a gripping tale of fear, friendship, and the enduring power of darkness.

This is the first book in the Crooked Tales series, a chilling saga that will leave you haunted long after you turn the final page.

When I set out to write The Rising, I wanted to create something epic that captured all the elements of horror I enjoyed so much as a kid. Before I knew it, I had a whole series of books on my hands: each one a love letter to a different sub-genre of horror, so I hope you enjoy the ride. With any luck you’ll discover a group of friends along the way that you can laugh, jump, and cry with, but ultimately relate to and root for as you join them on their journey into darkness. Whilst a YA novel at heart, The Rising will appeal to readers aged from 12 to 60. I was also lucky enough to win the Bookstagram YA novel of the year in 2024 as voted by Instagram’s Bookstagram community.
