This book is too short, the ending rushed and unsatisfying. It did get me invested in it, though, which is perhaps why I was surprised (and disappointed) when I turned the page to find out it was the last one.

The book could easily be read in about an hour, so if you have an afternoon and want to read a good well written classic, I highly recommend it. I only gave it the low rating because for me the book lacked details and I failed to find it scary, even in the horror upon the soul inflicting kind of way.
Interesting style of writing. It was interesting trying to assume the authors point of view based on the resources available in the late 1800's (which is when it was written). He keeps you engaged through the end.
A Victorian sexual horror tale that hints at the horrors without enumerating them in gory detail. Especially chilling in a modern light due to the themes of consent and women’s rights.

This book was pretty reminiscent of creepypasta, so if you like that kind of thing, you'll probably enjoy it. I do wish the denouement had been expanded a little more.
I, a devotee of transcendental medicine (45 M) rescued a child from the gutter (13 F) and performed minor surgery on her brain to allow her to see the supernatural. My friend (45 M) says I did wrong and am responsible for many deaths; I say her life was mine to use as I saw fit. AITA?
