We are introduced to Arthur who lives with his second wife and step children, one evening they are recounting ghost stories, this seems to hit too close to home for Arthur and he leaves the room. We are then taken back in time to when Arthur is a newly qualified lawyer and has been given a new job of working on the estate of a recently deceased elderly woman.
It seems straight forward at first, but when Arthur arrives at the town and speaks with locals with why he is visiting, it becomes clear that there is an underlying issue at the premises he has been sent to sort through. What we learn is very sinister, we are reading a proper ghost story,
The narrative keeps you on the edge of your seat right until the very last page! I LOVED how it was written and felt the creepiness throughout the pages!
Moral of the story, don’t piss off the Woman in Black.

Perfect beautifully creepy atmosphere and just the right amount of spookery. An extra .25 stars just for that ending.
