A story about a Halloween getaway gone terribly wrong:
A young lady named Meg is visiting her friend Lottie’s ancestral home in Ireland. Meg hopes this trip could be her chance to mend her friendships after a problematic incident at a ball. Although it won’t be easy, Meg is determined to reconcile with her friends. However, things are not as they seem in the manor, which has a dark legacy spanning many centuries. When one of her friends dies, Meg begins questioning everything she thought she knew about her friends.
This incredible horror book completely captivated me. The storyline was so gripping that I couldn’t put it down, and every unexpected turn had me on the edge of my seat. The book’s atmosphere and themes reminded me of “Wait Till Helen Comes,” which I also enjoyed.
The main character, Meg, was incredibly resilient, and I rooted for her throughout the story. Her determination and refusal to give up were genuinely admirable. Lottie, another character in the book, appeared to be kind but harbored some intriguing secrets. And then there’s Laure, one of the friends in the story, who comes across as a genuinely tragic character.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a thrilling horror story with surprising twists and turns. It’s a fantastic read that I’m sure many people will love.
