WOW! Second 5 star of the year.  Mrs. Davenport is a 1950's housewife who one day wakes up hearing & seeing things that are not there. Her extremely religious husband is a respected professor at a catholic college and he will not have any of it.  The story is both a horror story in the metaphysical sense but also a real life horror story.  The atrocities done to women by the men they are meant to trust the most is horrifying.  To the men that will go to any length to silence us, may they all rot 🖤
