i have so many questions but i can confidently say this is the scariest book ive ever read. i dont get freaked out by horror books ever. i think the only other novel to scare me was the shining so the fact this book made my skin crawl and gave me full body chills on two occasions is a testament to how well marcus kliewer can write horror. i usually would not expect a sequel to a horror novel but in this case it feels necessary!
