Psycho House (sometimes referred to as Psycho House: Psycho III) is a 1990 novel that Robert Bloch[1] wrote as a sequel to his 1959 novel Psycho and 1982 novel Psycho II.

The novel is not related to the 1986 film Psycho III or the 1990 film Psycho IV: The Beginning. However, it may have been inspired by the telefilm Bates Motel.

Plot summary
