⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Marilyn Ross crafts a chilling narrative that effectively blends gothic tropes with psychological suspense. The story unfolds through the lens of spiritualist communication, using the Ouija board to drive tension between Emily’s belief in spectral messages and Gale’s suspicion of her own subconscious. Ross excels at portraying the thin line between sanity and insanity, particularly through Gale’s mental blackouts. The tale is well-suited for readers who appreciate classic haunted house atmospheres and stories involving inherited madness. It successfully questions the nature of danger, whether from the grave or the mind. While it lacks comfort, offering instead a descent into terror, it remains a strong entry in the genre for those interested in the psychological unraveling of a protagonist facing impending doom.
