Minor: Body horror, Injury/Injury detail, Gore, and Death
Come for the illustrations/artwork, quasi-retelling based off Brothers Grimm, and the creepy and foreboding atmosphere and mood. The artwork is immersive and creative (engaging text bubbles), though it reminded me of newspaper cartoons, Matilda, and Curious George. Some impactful, haunting verses, songs, refrains, also a highlight. Second and fourth stories, of a girl helping her friend con others with false medium readings and her subsequent invisible haunting seen by narrator, and the girl moving to a mansion (just married) and hears a haunting verse and finds something there. A good read for the front porch at night, watching a nearby storm or listening to the rain.raynestorm's review against another edition
