Andrew Fletcher reviews Scratches, and finds its premise irresistable:
"The allure of the 'old dark house' is unlikely to wane as a cultural cornerstone of intrigue and atmosphere, even if its iconic power holds more promise than is usually fulfilled once we have delved into its secrets, confronted its ghosts and thrown open its curtains to reveal the somewhat less intimidating 'old house'. Nevertheless, the allure remains, and so as the box blurb for Scratches intones "Something sinister waits in the old Blackwood house…", one can be forgiven for wanting to expectantly tread the creaky boards of what is, as it turns out, just another old house."
