🫨🫨🫨 WHAT!!! I am not usually a horror guy, but I was hooked by this. Exploring trauma and cptsd through a haunted house??? I think Rivers Solomon did an incredible job of writing this in a way that embodies the chaos of unpacking trauma and ~remembering~ what our brains have blocked out. I am in shambles after everything came together at the end, and while I had suspicions of some of that reveal this story really kept me on my toes. WOW.
