I especially loved the character Holly, and her ability to enlighten the other characters about the truth of the murderer. The only thing that disappointed me was how fast the ending was, all it took to defeat the shapeshifter was a hit to the head. There should’ve been more of an epic fight sequence and we should’ve learnt more about the character, like how they came to be, and why they did it
Graphic: Pedophilia, Rape, Suicide attempt, and Murder
Moderate: Child death and Death
