A twisty, searing, conversation-starting novel about a filmmaker-turned-housewife who moves into her dream house and is forced to consider whether it's the house or herself that is haunted.

When documentary filmmaker turned stay-at-home mom Tennessee Cherish moves into the the dream house her husband bought for her, a brighter future seems to be on the horizon. Even if her husband is frustratingly absent due to his new high-paying job. Even if their two young children begin acting out in strange ways. Even if she feels lonelier than ever.

Distracted by the endless details that come with moving into a new town, a new house, and new schools, Tenn doesn’t notice when odd things begin happening at home. The faucet that runs at all hours. The creepy doll that seems to show up in every room. The human tooth they found in the floorboards.

As the kids’ outbursts and the strange events start to escalate, the family finds themselves increasingly caught in loops, repeating everyday actions with dangerous—and then devastating—effects. Tenn realizes she must find the source of what is haunting her family, before it kills them all.

Taut and twisty, scary and searing, Aimee Pokwatka’s Accumulation lays bare the high price women pay for the promises of domesticity and motherhood, and the many ways in which families can be haunted. Genre Fiction Horror Psychological Suspense Thriller & Suspense

Critic reviews

“This unnerving haunted house tale from Pokwatka elegantly blends domestic drama and psychological horror . . . The author excels at crafting a creepy atmosphere, using shifting perspectives and domestic detail to blur the boundaries between literal haunting and psychological fracture.” —Publishers Weekly

“For brats who are here to be haunted.” —BookTrib
“Aimee Pokwatka’s Accumulation is a razor-sharp, loop-twisting domestic nightmare . . . This taut, haunting knockout is a bold excavation of the hidden costs women shoulder when chasing the shining ideal of home and motherhood.” —Jean Kwok, New York Times bestselling author of The Leftover Woman

“I loved everything about Accumulation, a clever, dark, beautifully written ghost story that will have you racing through pages . . . What a feat!” —Araminta Hall, author of Unreliable Narrator

 "Accumulation is the perfect title for a story that fills the reader with increasing dread and uncertainty. The characters have an incredible depth that many can relate to and makes it a fantastic deep dive into home-based horror. It was not what I expected, and I loved that. Big applause for yet another fierce female voice in horror." —V Castro, author of The Haunting of Alejandra

“A classic but elevated haunted house tale that sneaks up on you like a cursed doll, Accumulation delivers tension and terror while probing a mother's darkest fears around losing her children—and herself."—Delilah Dawson, author of Bloom

"Accumulation is the perfect haunted house story for the 21st century, a paranoid spiral into old domestic horrors and the new terrors of money and surveillance. I couldn't put it down." —Stephanie Feldman, author of Saturnalia and The Angel of Losses
