Seriously, Kyle?! Just when you least expect it—Kyle strikes again! He's the real antagonist of this whole story. I know I can always turn to Darcy Coates for a spooky-but-not-too-disturbing story with main characters who mean well but find themselves in a scary situation. There's also always been a cat. I did get a bit frustrated with Daniel when he even considered listening to his garbage cousin Kyle. Kyle is the worst. I still had an overall fun reading experience, nothing super groundbreaking or surprising, but perfectly scratched my itch for a Halloweenish book.
