Behind the Door by Mary SanGiovanni
3.0
In the middle of the woods stands the Door.
No one knows what it is or where it comes from.
All they know it what it does.
For generations, the townspeople of Zarepath have passed down the knowledge of the Door and the rules of use: Write a letter for what you want. Go at night, alone, and pass the letter under the Door. Wait 3 days for it to come to pass. It may not happen exactly the way you are expecting, but you only get to use the Door once so make it count. And most importantly, Never, Ever, Open the Door.
It's the perfect premise for a horror novel because as we know, protagonists in horror always do exactly as they are told. *eye roll* For Kari, mourning the loss of her young daughter to suicide, the wish doesn't go as planned, and she opens the Door to try to take it back. Just like Pandora's box, all the evil is released back into this world.
Thanks a lot, Kari.
