5 Reasons to Read the Asylum Series by Madeleine Roux -

This is a series that I think is so underrated. It is similar to Miss Peregrines in the way that it uses old pictures to add a creepy element to an already spine chilling story! It is a spooky series that has mystery and unknown elements that leave you in the dark of what is actually going on. Set on a college campus and an old asylum definitely give the spooky fall vibes that are perfect for the Halloween season! It was a little predictable at times but also seemed so realistic and reminiscent of situations I’ve been in before that it was hard to read it alone at night.

Make sure if you are going to read this series that you start with Asylum. The novella collection I believe it a must read as well as the prequel Escape the Asylum! Now I am going to give you 5 Reasons to Read The Asylum Series by Madeleine Roux!

Synopsis

Asylum is a thrilling and creepy photo-novel perfect for fans of the New York Times bestseller Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.

For sixteen-year-old Dan Crawford, New Hampshire College Prep is more than a summer program—it’s a lifeline. An outcast at his high school, Dan is excited to finally make some friends in his last summer before college. But when he arrives at the program, Dan learns that his dorm for the summer used to be a sanatorium, more commonly known as an asylum. And not just any asylum—a last resort for the criminally insane.

As Dan and his new friends, Abby and Jordan, explore the hidden recesses of their creepy summer home, they soon discover it’s no coincidence that the three of them ended up here. Because the asylum holds the key to a terrifying past. And there are some secrets that refuse to stay buried.

Featuring found photos of unsettling history and real abandoned asylums and filled with chilling mystery and page-turning suspense, Madeleine Roux’s teen debut, Asylum, is a horror story that treads the line between genius and insanity.
