While this book is longer than it needs to be and some of the content has aged pretty poorly, it has a great story, likable characters, and plenty of truly chilling horror. It isn't perfect, but there sure is a lot to love here.

My initial reaction when finishing this was to give it 5 stars. I loved it!
I may end up lowering it later on, but for now, 5 Stars seems appropriate for this strange journey I just went on in this story.
Definitely the creepiest book I’ve ever read.
