Fics like just like heaven (if it didn't look like hell)

No living organism can continue to exist—or indeed, desire to exist—under the strain of crushing unreality; dreams are, in fact, the very thing that turn some to dust. Hill House, its unreality seeping through the neatly aligned—perhaps, maligned—floor boards, is one such place. Dust sits in the corners of rooms, run through as they are by Mrs. Dudley’s feather duster; tiles, mortared in by civil hands, run in rows of the most precise lines, tightly pressed to the concrete foundations placed fifty years earlier. The parquet foyer—silent and untouched as the foyers of old houses often are—runs straight to the wrought-iron door. Floors flow towards doorways with immediacy; most people run towards them with even more.
