I've been wondering whether this might be a play: Strindberg's "The Ghost Sonata".
As the play opens a young student explains how he has seen a large crack on a houe, just before it falls down. He rescues a child, who vanishes.
Then he is drawn into dream-like events at a mysterious house populated by a solipsistic family.
