Synopsis

Luke Holland believes he is trapped—financially, emotionally, and spiritually—in the rotting house of his reclusive uncle. Convinced the old man is practicing dark rites and certain that murder is justified, Luke prepares a perfect crime that will free him from fear, poverty, and dependence. 
But the house has been listening. Ancient rituals, locked rooms, and strange knowledge collide as Luke discovers that not all vengeance ends with a heartbeat. What follows is a terrifying descent into consequences that cannot be escaped, even by death. 
Robert Bloch was one of the most influential voices in twentieth-century speculative fiction, blending psychological terror with sharp irony and dark imagination. Best known today for Psycho, Bloch was a protégé of H. P. Lovecraft and a master at exploring fear rooted not in monsters alone, but in the human mind. 
Throughout his career, Bloch wrote hundreds of stories that bridged science fiction, horror, and the macabre, often exposing the fragile boundary between reason and obsession. The Grip Of Death stands as a powerful example of his ability to turn moral certainty into existential dread.
