The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer

Part ghost story, part memoir, this book was written to supply the back-story to the television mini-series, ROSE RED, penned by Stephen King. The fictional diary chronicles the ongoing construction and goings on of a Seattle mansion--named Rose Red--built on a Native American burial ground early in the 20th century. The diarist, Ellen, has married oil tycoon, John Rimbauer, a philandering and cold man who believes none of his wife's comments that strange things are happening in Rose Red. Explanatory notes written by the supposed editor and professor of paranormal studies, Joyce Reardon, accompany the diary entries.
