I would imagine that the movie version will take everything a bit further but this was a good, fast, and spooky read. A bit formulaic to be sure: old creepy lady dies, she lived in a creepy out of the way house, the new lawyer is sent to straighten out her affairs, everyone warns him about staying in the house, he goes anyway and things are creepy... But it all worked and it is such a quick read that you just get in to it and let it take you away. It would be absolutely perfect to read on a rainy day with a cup of tea!
