Good short story that definitely made me want to have my house inspected again just to be safe . Also sad about the dogs :(

Too abrupt of an ending, but still properly spooky.

Oh man

Ever get a book because, well it looks cool and you love it. Well this book made me cringe, laying in the dark with my skin crawling thanks to this book. The entire time I’m reading all I could do was think, oh please not the kid...

Kept me at the edge of my seat, wincing every time I heard the wind blow. Holy shit it was an incredible read. 

The ONLY detail is that the ending was not the best, I would’ve enjoyed a more impactful plot twist or some major death.


Besides that, it was a great quick and impactful read that will have your skin crawling for days.
