About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a grief-tinged, creature-in-the-house scare ride with frequent jump moments, similar in vibe to Before I Wake or Haunt; Not for you if you hate predictable horror or very dim scenes.

Pros: tense build-ups; effective jump scares; creepy creature presence | Cons: familiar story beats; too dark to see; characters make dumb choices
