While I enjoyed this audiobook, I will say that there were a few things that I didn't like mainly from the podcast itself.
I wish that there was some sort of 'announcement' during the narrations somewhere when there's a time change. I got so confused at certain points because it would be hopping between the 60's and the 70's and Henry would go from being a student to being a lecturer. The podcast itself also had way too many ads in between and it was jarring to listen to at times when they cut off before an intense scene. I've sat through ads before because podcasts sometimes do a decent job of integrating the story with the ads so it's not an impossible thing to do.
I will say though that I wasn't particularly attached to any of the characters. Maybe it had to do with the fact that it was a short story or maybe the audiobook version didn't really do the characters justice? The story was gripping though to the point that I wanted to finish it so that I would know who the killer was.

I listened to this on Spotify and the production quality was phenomenal. The use of sound effects and music really add to the experience, the suspense throughout the story was fun to listen to. Would definitely love to listen to more books in this format.

I read this with my English class. I'm not fond of horror or creepy stories but this one kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. just don't read it at night
This was good. I worked out the ending about halfway through, but it was fun nonetheless
