Every fan of the standalone novel, What Happens in This House Stays in This House, knows that Raymond Kramer was a force to be reckoned with. Until now, no one knew how or why he became a monster. It was as if he was born that way, but the fact is that he wasn't. Before Raymond became a violent sadistic man, he was a sweet loving boy with dreams of one day being someone important. An abusive murderer was never in his cards, at least not the hand that he was initially dealt.

With the strong belief that dominating and scaring your children would make them obedient, Raymond's parents, Liz and Frank Kramer, made him and his brother, Renard's, childhood a living hell. The physical abuse that he and his brother received from their father along with the psychological abuse that their mother dished out invalidated him and left behind wounds and scars that he would later pass down to his own family.

After years of growing up in an abusive household and dealing with manipulation from the people who were supposed to nurture and protect him, Raymond was then stuck with unrealistic expectations and a very low tolerance for disrespect. He became emotionally numb to the feelings of others as a coping mechanism to avoid dealing with the pain and anger that lied deeply within him.

As you flip through the pages of Terror Inside These Four Walls, you will gain firsthand experience of the terrifying moments that would later lead to Raymond's evilness and his untimely death.
