What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

I'm looking for a book about a group of children that got trapped in a haunted house/mansion. I don't know when it came out, but I read it about 7 years ago.

It was based off the premise of the Ten Little Soldiers/Indians poem, where each time a kid disappeared it would be in a way relevant to the next soldier in the poem. Sort of like a paranormal children's/teen's version of And Then There Were None. I think one of the kids disappeared into a magic mirror or something, maybe another one into a pool? It ended with only one or two children escaping, and they burned the house down.

It had a sequel in which another group of kids get magically transported by a book into the ruins of mansion, and they once again had to try to escape.

Could be "The Gathering" By Dan Poblocki....

I skimmed an ebook from my library and I don't think this is it. It doesn't have any references to the poem, which I'm pretty sure was a major part of the story.

But thanks anyway!!

Daemon Hall (book 1 of the Daemon Hall series) by Andrew Nance looks very promising. There are different cover images.

Quote from the book:
- "He's been quoting Agatha Christie since we got here. Drop your bedroll over there with ours."
"I read Ten Little Indians again to get in the mood for tonight. You ever read it?"

Description of book 2: Return to Daemon Hall: Evil Roots:
- "A year has passed since that fateful night in Daemon Hall's house of horrors. Bestselling macabre author Ian Tremblin decides to hold another writer's contest but this time in the safety of his own home. Tremblin is excited to share with contestants a very old book he has recently acquired that once belonged to Rudolph Daemon, the millionaire builder of Daemon Hall who later went mad and killed his family. But the book, like the mansion, is powerfully evil and soon transports the group to the burned out shell of the haunted mansion..."
