Fun premise, but I didn’t love the way the characters were scheming about making the town a place of tourism. It felt icky. The emotions also felt forced in the characters, and they were too good, too saintly by the end. The narrators were not my favorite but I still think they did a good job.

Rounded up from 4.5 stars
A perfect creepy, tense, supernatural horror for Halloween.
