Order of Dollanganger Books
American author V.C. Andrews launched the haunting Dollanganger series with her iconic novel Flowers in the Attic in 1979. This gothic horror family saga captivated readers with the chilling tale of the Dollanganger children, who find themselves trapped in an attic by their own mother and grandmother.
The complete Dollanganger series spans five novels that chronicle this dark family's twisted legacy. While V.C. Andrews crafted most of the series, ghostwriter Andrew Neiderman also contributed to the collection. Notably, Garden of Shadows represents a unique collaboration—Virginia Andrews began writing this installment before her death, and Andrew Neiderman completed the manuscript.
