Sour Candy by Kealan Patrick Burke

4.0

---

Sour Candy is a gripping horror novella that expertly uses its short length to craft an intense and engaging experience. The fast-paced narrative and psychological twists creates a story that kept me on the edge of my seats. The descriptions of the Elders was not as disturbing as I think it could be, but creepy nonetheless. The complex interplay between reality and delusion adds a layer of mystery and fear, forcing readers to question what they perceive as real. This kind of storytelling can be particularly unsettling and thought-provoking, leaving a lasting impact on readers. An excellent choice for those who enjoy a quick horror that delves deep into the psyche and leaves them pondering long after they've finished reading.
