Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

Title: Welcome to the Dark House
Author: Laurie Faria Solarz
Genre: Young Adult, Horror, Thriller
Publisher: Disney Hyperion
Release date: July 22nd 2014



What’s your worst nightmare? For Ivy Jensen, it’s the eyes of a killer that haunt her nights. For Parker Bradley, it’s bloodthirsty sea serpents that slither in his dreams. And for seven essay contestants, it’s their worst nightmares that win them an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at director Justin Blake’s latest, confidential project. Ivy doesn’t even like scary movies, but she’s ready to face her real-world fears. Parker’s sympathetic words and perfect smile help keep her spirits up. . . at least for now. Not everyone is so charming, though. Horror-film fanatic Garth Vader wants to stir up trouble. It’s bad enough he has to stay in the middle of nowhere with this group—the girl who locks herself in her room; the know-it-all roommate; “Mister Sensitive”; and the one who’s too cheery for her own good. Someone has to make things interesting. Except, things are already a little weird. The hostess is a serial-killer look-alike, the dream-stealing Nightmare Elf is lurking about, and the seventh member of the group is missing. By the time Ivy and Parker realize what’s really at stake, it’s too late to wake up and run.
Why am I waiting on this?

The first three Dune novels portray the rise and fall of the saintly Paul Atreides, his fate foreshadowed from his earliest visions swiss replica watches. A similar device is used in Babylon 5, where we know what happens to the principals, most notably Londo, years in breitling replica advance.

In Terry Gilliam's Twelve Monkeys, it's replica watches uk a future plague that's destroyed hope, with the hero's death predicted in the opening frames.
