Folcroft Ghosts was amazing. I didn’t enjoy the ClockWork short story, but the others were good!

This was cute! As some of the other reviewers mentioned, this feels very YA since the main character is a child. Coates is phenomenal at spooky haunted house stories, and this is just that. Maybe it was the age of the MC versus the other characters, but I thought the villan was much more interesting than the immature MC (but as she was an actual child, that's no fault of the story). I listened to this on a long drive and it was good for that experience.

This was not my favorite Darcy Coates book. But I still greatly enjoyed the story. I kind of predicted the plot, which in a Darcy Coates book is not the most terrible thing as I’m mostly reading her books for the creepy vibes anyway, but I didn’t really see where the ending was going.
