3.0

A very quick, eerie horror novella full of mystery, told from the perspective of a young boy who thinks his father has returned from the dead. Loved the ending, so fucked up.

TW: Animal violence and death, seizures, gore

Didn’t really feel scary, more eerie. Definitely had goosebumps all over when I got to that scene at the end 👀
