Short Summary

House of Leaves follows a documentary film called The Navidson Record, along with the footnotes of a man named Zampano who studied it, and the increasingly unstable commentary of Johnny Truant who found Zampano's notes. Readers get three overlapping stories that slowly blur together. The house itself becomes a character, one that grows, shifts, and traps anyone who spends too long inside it. By the end, you're left questioning what's real inside the story and what the book is doing to you as a reader.
