Meh

It was not quite what I was looking. Engaging story but not horror. The narrator was excellent. I only finished it to hear how it ended. It was quite sad.

absolutely devastating

This story is unlike all the other in the shivers collection. it's completely devastating and will wreck you.

Sad. Not Horror.

The story was good but if you're looking for horror this isn't it. Sad and a little paranormal but not horror.

Meh…Nice Twist

At first I was beginning to get alittle depressed because it’s sooooo darn sad! But it had a nice twist and that made it ok

Catriona Ward made me cry again.

I read The Last House on Needless Street a little while ago, and was just bawling for the last 25%. Same here. I rarely cry reading or listening to books, but Catriona Ward's are 2/2 thus far.

Grief can be the worst kind of horror...

Such a heartbreaking story. Love this author and her story is my second fave in this series.

Why is this so sad???

This is the second story I've listened to from The Shivers collection. I thought these stories were supposed to make us shiver in fear, but I guess they meant that you will shiver from crying so hard. WHY ARE THESE STORIES SO SAD???

Excellent!!!!

I really enjoyed the story and feel it was well written!! Extremely good storyline. Great

Haunting

This grabbed my brain and squeezed my heart. I feel catch in my throat as if this was not some story, but really happened. Maybe how you feel when you wake up from a bad dream.

Great story!

How can you heal from such a tragedy?

I truly felt for this mom and the emotional pain she was going through. I also really enjoyed the eerie, ghostly presence… whether it was there to help or hinder her healing process.
