Critics Review

“With this brutal horror story, Conrad and Chisholm redefine haunting in multiple ways, as the reader may find its concepts hard to shake long after the last page. […] A win for adult horror fans and a surprisingly unique take on the haunted house story.”– “Booklist, starred review
“A new classic in horror.”– “Nerd Initiative
“Humor quickly becomes horror, then a mischievous mix as needed and appropriate… There’s appeal here for those who enjoy ghost hunting and paranormal investigation in any form, as well as readers who love a chill-worthy haunting. If you fit into either category or both, you should launch your own investigation and explore Plague House.”– “Comics Beat
“Praiseworthy… With a tight pacing and a sleek script, Conrad manages to show Orin’s murder and give each of the paranormal investigators their own mini-adventures while roaming through the McCabe’s house. Artist Dave Chisholm brings the horrifying crime to life with unnerving precision, knowing exactly when to depict the graphic violence and when just to suggest it and leave readers’ minds to fill the gruesome picture… Plague House is well worthy of the attention of horror aficionados.”– “Comicbook.com
“The artwork is dark and visceral. The intensity in the violence radiates off of the panels through shocking imagery and perfect color choices. Chisholm brings a raw and grounded design and vibe to the story that makes it feel even more intense… Plague House is a deadly good time.” – “Nerd Initiative
“There are surprises and then there are shockers. [Plague House] delivers a true shocker than should reward readers … an unexpected, but pleasant, surprise in every sense.”– “Comiccon.com
