I really enjoyed this book. The writing flowed very well, making this an easy read. The dialogue felt real and the figurative language was on point. The horror lay in the way Barron described things. At one point he compares an open cellar door to an open throat, which is quite the image. He excels at bringing to life descriptions of uneasiness in the face of lurking shadows.

The overall feeling of the book is that there's something wrong going on but you don't know quite what. It's a well-told dark, unsettling, and weird tale.
