Was not expecting it to go full House of Leaves at the end, but I’m so glad it did!
If you’re looking for a more traditional haunted house/ghost story then I would recommend skipping this one. But if you enjoy sci-fi horror with cosmic/Lovecraftian themes then definitely check it out!

When the ghost hunting team behind the popular TV show Fade to Black get permission to investigate the infamous Paranormal Research Foundation mansion, they're sure they've struck paranormal gold + bought themselves a second season. Sure enough, the mansion delivers on its promise of supernatural activity, leading the team to dig further into its mysteries + make contact with whatever entity is residing there.
This was a fun + horrifying ride from start to finish! Absolutely loved where it ended up going! I'm always a little wary of books written in an epistolary format because it's so hard to do right, but this book completely delivered for me. It wastes no time in plunging the reader into the story. I found the pacing and evolution of the story to be super compelling. Fantastic read overall + would definitely recommend!
