A piercing, burning pain engulfs my entire face. Dad has kicked me. Blood is gushing from my nose. Then I feel cold water being poured all over my body. Electrical wires shock me, I can't see through the blood. God, help me.” (Translated)\u003cbr\u003eLandi is the eldest of five children who were rescued from the so-called Springs house of horror. She is now 21 years old and tells her astonishing story for the very first time. In May 2014, police raided the house where a sadistic father had imprisoned, abused and tortured his wife and five children in a rat-infested den of sleaze.\u003cbr\u003eIn chilling detail, Landi recalls how their father assaulted them by tasering them, shooting them with a gas pistol and burning them with a blowtorch, how he researched torture methods and nearly drowned them in a bathtub.\u003cbr\u003eShe relates her memories to Susan Cilliers, an experienced journalist, who documents it with compassion, skilfully combining it with facts that emanated from the police investigation and court case.\u003cbr\u003eHouse of Horrors is the shocking tale of a father who took everything from his family in the cruellest possible way, but it is also a story of hope about a brave young girl who eventually finds happiness and healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Susan+Cilliers\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eSusan Cilliers\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Susan Cilliers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47376640868515,"sku":"9780799393309","price":360.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780799393309_0772d9c1-5548-4cd9-bcf2-9c19ad19468a.jpg?v=1776514686","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780799393309","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
