Sometimes you see the ending coming a mile away but it doesn't ruin the experience. In fact it probably enhances it because you want to see if you're right as the story twists and turns into uncomfortable poses. But yup, one ending was exactly what I expected despite the very subtle red herring in Grayson and Roanoke's first interactions.

The second ending was somewhat of a blindside. Where I had expected the writer to be done with the Krampus mansion she does the UNTHINKABLE - come on RO, as a horror writer you don't go living in a haunted house. But, that was not the shocker. The shocker happened on the very last page. Still, Roanoke was probably still in shock when she made the foolhardy decision to move to that place.

Repeat after me:

Don't Buy Obviously Haunted Houses
