Then it must be "Hell House" - Matheson? Which I don't recall ever reading.
I recently did read his "Somewhere in Time" I have read (and enjoyed) Shirley Jackson |

OK - another fun one:
"Oh, yes. I've no doubt in my own mind that we have been invited here by a madman--probably a dangerous homicidal lunatic." |

Ok, the first quote seems really familiar although I can't place it. The second quote was no help at all. I'm going to take one more shot in the dark and then I have to go get some work done.

Still no correct guess?

Haven't looked at the spoiler, but I've got it from the prisoners at the bar line. Agatha Christie's And Then There were None, or whatever title you prefer.

Gowing began his usual sniffing, so, anticipating him, I said: “You’re not going to complain of the smell of paint again?” He said: “No, not this time; but I’ll tell you what, I distinctly smell dry rot.” I don’t often make jokes, but I replied: “You’re talking a lot of DRY ROT yourself.” I could not help roaring at this, and Carrie said her sides quite ached with laughter. I never was so immensely tickled by anything I have ever said before. I actually woke up twice during the night, and laughed till the bed shook.
