Very dark and unsettling! I liked the art and thought it matched well with the story but found it a bit difficult at times to understand and interpret the drawings because of the perspective/ supernatural nature. Some unresolved parts but feels very akin to most other short stories. If you like YA spooky mine stories, this felt similar to To Break a Coven by Alison Ames.
