"Reading a Palahniuk novel is like getting zipped inside a boxer's heavy bag while the author goes to work on you, pounding you until there is nothing left but a big bag of bones and blood and pain." -The Miami Herald "To Palahniuk's credit, there is something here to appall almost every sensibility. The author has a singular knack for coming up with inventive new ways to shock and degrade." -The New York Post "Frequently entertaining [and] often appalling. . . . There are paragraphs here-entire pages, in fact-that are as disgusting as anything I've ever read. Truly vivid and harrowing (and often quite funny)." -Minneapolis Star Tribune, "Reading a Palahniuk novel is like getting zipped inside a boxer's heavy bag while the author goes to work on you, pounding you until there is nothing left but a big bag of bones and blood and pain." -The Miami Herald "To Palahniuk's credit, there is something here to appall almost every sensibility.

Synopsis
"Haunted" is a novel made up of twenty-three horrifying, hilarious, and stomach-churning stories. They're told by people who have answered an ad for a writer's retreat and unwittingly joined a " Survivor" -like scenario where the host withholds heat, power, and food. As the storytellers grow more desperate, their tales become more extreme, and they ruthlessly plot to make themselves the hero of the reality show that will surely be made from their plight. This is one of the most disturbing and outrageous books you'll ever read, one that could only come from the mind of Chuck Palahniuk., Made up of 23 of the most horrifying, hilarious, mind-blowing, stomach-churning tales readers will ever encounter, "Haunted" is Palahniuk at his finest--which means his most extreme and his most provocative., Haunted is a novel made up of twenty-three horrifying, hilarious, and stomach-churning stories.
