Complicated review. In the begining there was this sense of a gothic horror, girl descending into madness... Like Haunting of Hill House or The Yellow Wallpaper (both amazing)... But after a while the blog posts, interview and cinematic outline of the “possession” ruins it. Its repetative and takes away from Merry's story, which is genuinely horrifying! Had he reformatted this story it could have been amazing.
(Otherwise I'm seriously curious about the short story called the Growing Things, and if its in his short story collection of the same name...hmm.)
