Ratings and reviews

I also thought that the sound affects were good, the narration was pleasant also. I'm really used to the heavy horror. I watched & listen to down right scary movies & audio., this was very tame for me & not that interesting.

Loved how the suspense builds on every word. Also I really enjoyed the ladies voice kept me wanting to hear more

A good little weird tale with excellent narration & sound..
