Commentary In Favor Of Books The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red

At the turn of the twentieth century, Ellen Rimbauer became the young bride of Seattle industrialist John Rimbauer, and began keeping a remarkable diary. This diary became the secret place where Ellen could confess her fears of the new marriage, her confusion over her emerging sexuality, and the nightmare that her life would become. The diary not only follows the development of a girl into womanhood, it follows the construction of the Rimbauer mansion—called Rose Red—an enormous home that would be the site of so many horrific and inexplicable tragedies in the years ahead. The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red is a rare document, one that gives us an unusual view of daily life among the aristocracy in the early 1900s, a window into one woman's hidden emotional torment, and a record of the mysterious events at Rose Red that scandalized Seattle society at the time—events that can only be fully understood now that the diary has come to light. Edited by Joyce Reardon, Ph.D. as part of her research, the diary is being published as preparations are being made by Dr. Reardon to enter Rose Red and fully investigate its disturbing history.

Evaluate Of Books The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red

this book was part of the promotional stunt for Steven King's mini series Rose Red in the early 2000's . As a young teenager, I loved the mini series ( quite creepy). The book does not give much more detailed information than the actual series does, but it is still quite entertaining if you're a king fan. Loosely based on the actual Winchester house.

This was a lesson in what constitutes progress. Found this on a rainy day in Venice Public Library and decided it might be sort of time-capsule creepy, a mouse-hole view into another era.If I had had any idea whatsoever that this was in fact a companion novelization to a popular Stephen King miniseries... it would've remained on the shelf. But on this day I needed something to read, and my holds had yet to appear in the arrivals stack. Nothing about cover, flyleaf notes, or interior designations

I skimmed through the first few pages because the prose was overwrought and extremely melodramatic. It reminded me of the sort of thing someone who has never read a romance might write thinking this is the way it's done. Purple prose, fluttering hands, and swooning galore. Blech. Okay, I'm revising my first impression of this book because last night I zipped through 3/4's of it without taking a break, getting bored, or skimming. I haven't done that in YEARS. Something about this story fascinates

picked up at the thrift store. eh, one of those "it's really a true story... see, we made a website to prove it!" ala Blair Witch Project. Fake diary of woman living in house she thinks is possessed - like many other "diary" books this one doesn't ring true as being someone's private writings nor does the style/language fit the time frame. It goes back to the thrift store for someone else to pick up for 50cents

This book really held my attention. I even thought it was real. I was very disappointed when I discovered the truth. The movie is stupid, so if you've seen it, don't let it play a role in your decision to read this book.

I really loved this book. I recieved my copy as a surprise gift from my husband and I read it right after I watched the series on TV. The book is very well written and is just like a diary. It complaments the movie very well if you have seen the movie by all means read this companion book. A mysterious and haunting spirit lurks within the walls of Rose Red, the setting for Stephen King's upcoming ABC miniseries tie-in by the same name. Built on a Native American burial ground in early

Considering this was written as promotional material for a TV movie, there's actually something to The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer. There's not a lot to it, but it's not bad by any means.There are a lot of clichés here (all of them, in fact), but who doesn't love a good haunted house book? The tone is inconsistent and the story doesn't make a lot of sense, but you've got a philandering oil baron husband, a psychically-sensitive housewife, a spooky African housemaid with powers, a Chinese medium with
