Jennings delivers a potent blend of gore and supernatural dread, utilizing the stagecoach refuge setting to maximize tension. The detached narrative voice effectively mirrors the cold storm outside, enhancing the sense of inescapable doom. While the splatter western elements provide necessary shock value, the psychological depth of the characters prevents the story from becoming merely gratuitous.
