This is a winding and immersive story of Gaspar, a child born out of darkness, with parents who did everything in their power to protect him from the darkness they were forced to be a part of.
I loved how each piece of the story started somewhere new and uncertain, building on this extensive horror of visions, darkness, and doors. If you love the occult, this is an excellent long read.
