Weird News: House Calls Police for Help
Saturday, May 14, 2011
Self-conscious structures have been recurring figures in horror and science fiction alike. The famous haunted house often seems creepier when it's possessed by its own alien intelligence, rather than deceased spirits. Now, a leaky Massachussets house has dialed police in a voiceless call that helped authorities undercover its decrepit condition.
I'm also reminded of Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves. Anyone who has battled their way through this unconventional novel knows the bizarre house exhibits an uncanny sentience. Perhaps something like a real world Navidson Record isn't far off.
