Horror/to review

This started of very disturbing, then the dust settles in the middle and then it gets dusturbing again. And I had no idea what was actually out there.

It starts off with Etain finding a body being eaten by creepy dogs and then going to a creepy farm, and dark stuff happens. Like whaaaat?!

Fast forward 20 years. Etain is an alcoholic, and her daughter Betty starts college. Now it is calmer and not disturbing. Betty meets a girl falls in love. But how to explain her alcoholic mother, and her twin who disappeared long ago....*eerie sound*

Now what is going on? No idea! But it seems to have something to do with a kid´s show that has been on tv for ages, and there is something hiding in a box but they never show what.

And little by little we learn more creepy things, and Betty is starting to freak out.

Creepy, and unsettling. Like what is haunting Ireland?! I even got a tiny nightmare, lol, I am such a lightweight!

Great narration in my opinion. Accents, the creepy feeling, the horror and fear all worked so well.

Driving home late one night, Etain Larkin finds a corpse on a pitch-black country road deep in the Irish countryside. She takes the corpse to a remote farmhouse. So begins a night of unspeakable horror that will take her to the very brink of sanity.

She will never speak of it again.

Two decades later, Betty Fitzpatrick, newly arrived at college in Dublin, has already fallen in love with the drama society, and the beautiful but troubled Ashling Mallen. As their relationship blossoms, Ashling goes to great lengths to keep Betty away from her family, especially her alcoholic mother, Etain.

Gradually, Betty learns her lover's terrifying family history, and Ashling's secret obsession. Ashling has become convinced that the horrors inflicted on her family are connected to a seemingly innocent children's TV show. Everyone in Ireland watched this show in their youth, but Ash soon discovers that no one remembers it quite the same way. And only Ashling seems to remember its a small black goat puppet who lives in a box and only comes out if you don't behave. They say he's never come out.

Almost never.

When the door between the known and unknown opens, it can never close again.
