About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a moody, Italian-set curse story with a steady build and some creepy moments, similar in vibe to Ánimas; Not for you if you need fast pacing, clear answers, or constant jump scares.
Pros: unnerving mood; strong child performance; Italian setting | Cons: slow pace; confusing story gaps; predictable tropes
