Customer Reviews
Masterful storytelling
Each story pulls you in, and I find myself on the edge of my seat. Love this series!! Very sad that there wasn’t a season 2. Please bring it back in 2024 and beyond.
A different kind of ghost story
This was truly wonderful to listen to!
Ghosts represent different things in different types of stories. Sometimes grief, anger, or regret. Sometimes memories. But this one was really hitting on sadness, melancholy, and being tired/wanting rest it was really beautiful and worth listening to, and towards the end, when the framing device comes back into prominence, it really ties together/wraps up everything. Beautiful and satisfying. Worth listening to again.
So Good!
Binge-worthy! A heartfelt love letter to the afterlife and its uncertainties.
