TRAPPED IN THE MESHES OF THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS
\nHere is a keystone work in the development of the modern horror\n novel first published in the early 1960s. When Ambrose Sampson\ndies, everyone in the family considered him the next-best thing to a saint,\nincluding his college-grad nephew, Hal. So Hal is outraged when a stranger\nknocks at the door and tries to strong-arm his way into the house, demanding a\nwork supposedly written by his uncle titled "The Book of Ambrose" and\nhinting at his uncle's involvement in something dark and sinister. But Hal's\noutrage turns to horror when he answers the phone and hears a ghostly but\nfamiliar voice say, "Hello, Hal. This is your uncle Ambrose." Hal's\nhorror deepens when he learns his beloved uncle was a practitioner of Satanism\nand had pledged Hal's sister, Lisa, to the mighty Prince of Darkness. However,\nAmbrose has repented and begs Hal to help him oppose the forces of darkness he\nunleashed. Only then can he rest in peace and not in agony! Hal agrees, not\nknowing that he will face temptations and dangers rarely experienced by mortal\nmen: For in his future lie the perils of the House by the Devil's Bend, the\nPlace of Pain, and the Goddess of Dark Waters, along with the unholy\ntemptations of Caress Dillon and Amora Cartwright. And if he survives those,\nHal will still have to face the combined forces of a Satanic cult and the\nawesome power of the Prince of Darkness himself.
