Overall, a very fast paced novella with an interesting take on the haunted house story. The writing style was very imaginative and invocative. I wished there was further development of the ghost before the initial meeting of said ghost. The transitions between scenes felt a little flat at times. I read the entire story in roughly 3.5 hours. 4/5, a strong writing for the protagonist and the side characters, interesting take on the haunted house trope, had stilted transitions at times.
Moderate: Death
Minor: Drug use, Blood, and Alcohol
