An interesting premise, but sadly the execution was lacking in depth. I wanted the ideas around the spite house and the returned to be way more fleshed out. The haunted house element was good but there were so many other details introduced then never really explored. The pacing was also pretty uneven which was jarring in places.
Graphic: Child death and Confinement
Minor: Miscarriage and Racism
