Goodreads Summary
Asylum meets Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, in this riveting tale of ghosts, secrets, and family, from master of suspense Katie Alender.
Delia's new house isn't just a house. It used to be an insane asylum, a place to lock up "troubled" young women long ago. And a restless, wicked spirit is still at play--and it doesn't want defiant girls like Delia to go anywhere.
So the house kills her.
Now Delia is a ghost, trapped in her creepy home forever. As she meets the other ghost girls who haunt the narrow hallways, as well as the handsome ghost boy on the grounds, she learns shocking truths about the house's history. Delia also realizes that her alive and grieving sister might be the house's next target. Can Delia unlock the mystery of the old asylum, save her sister, and free herself?

Why I'm desperate for The dead Girls of Hysteria Hall:
Ghost and secrets, two of my favorite things and they all take place in an old insane asylum that somehow turned into a house. If that doesn't pull anyone in, I don't know what will. I'm so curious as to how this story will play out and I wonder what happened to the wicked spirit to make her kill Delia and probably other's as well. Other than being stuck in an insane asylum where she was probably tortured (isn't that what they did back then? I think I went to museum about it but can't remember the name....), I want to know her back story! Gahh I have so many questions!
