The Thief of Always by Clive Barker

Harvey Swick is bored with life when a monster named Rictus presents him with the possibility of a visit to Holiday House, where your every wish comes true. It's spring in the morning, summer in the afternoon, Halloween at dusk, Thanksgiving at dinner time and Christmas at bedtime, every day. Your favorite foods are always ready, there's no school, and presents every night. Whatever you wish for is available for you. Harvey finds out however, that everything is not perfect at Holiday House and when he tries to leave, there's no way out. Finding his way out and then back in to destroy Holiday House and rescue his friends becomes his goal. Using his wits and the magic of hope, happiness, magic, and love, he succeeds.
