Typical gothic horror that plays around with the ambiguity of the supernatural being real or halluciantions/trauma (and a very good choice of narration style and use of unreliable narrator). Slight pick me-vibes, but the mother-daughter conflict at the end was interesting.
Graphic: Body horror, Death, Emotional abuse, Mental illness, and Murder
Moderate: Adult/minor relationship, Forced institutionalization, Sexual assault, Domestic abuse, Incest, Infertility, Medical trauma, Child abuse, and Pedophilia
