However, for those who trust the genre's conventions, this ambiguity works in its favor. It does not suit casual readers looking for lighthearted thrills or clear resolutions. Instead, it targets a discerning audience comfortable with ambiguity and the darker corners of gothic and psychological horror. The lack of concrete hooks invites speculation but demands a reader willing to engage with tone over tangible narrative evidence.
