Abigale Hall gives us a ghostly mansion, characters with challenging dynamics, and a mystery of missing girls. I loved the setting of an isolated mansion in Wales, and the reveal of the missing girls’ fate at the end felt straight out of a 2000’s horror movie (looking at you JEEPERS CREEPERS) . But I didn’t feel particularly connected to or invested in the characters to totally understand their motives clearly. This could have been a miss on my end from skimming too much in order to finish before the end of 2021 (which I clearly didn’t do, anyway), but maybe not. Anyone who enjoys a good haunted house story should give it a try if you haven’t already.
