About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a tense, found-footage haunted-location ride with a strong “you are there” vibe, similar in spirit to The Blair Witch Project; Not for you if you need lots of gore or a deep, clearly explained story.

Pros: tense slow-burn build; effective jump scares; immersive found-footage feel | Cons: familiar setup; thin backstory; uneven pacing early
