I could’ve finished this book in one sitting had life not gotten in the way. This book is insane! Just for the fact that it spooked me so good (I don’t get spooked easily) that I was actually jumpy in broad daylight!
Way way too good! However, I’m taking a star away because I don’t like all the questions that were left unanswered.

Don’t let the innocent looking cover fool you, this is a horror book through and through. I think the reason why this book is so spooky is because the author has incorporated several very real phenomena that no one can think about for too long without feeling deeply unsettled.

Sleep paralysis demons.
Capgras syndrome (believing someone you know has been replaced by a doppelgänger.) Pareidolia (seeing meaningful things in abstract images - e.g. Rorschach tests.) The Mandela effect.

A lot of these I didn’t even know about. It takes great skill to interlace the horror and paranormal with reality. Marcus kliewar is the new master of this skill!

Thank-you NetGalley and Atria books for my advance readers copy.
