My Review….

I had high hopes for this one, but I was really disappointed. The acting may have been on point but the plot seemed to be all over the place. Even though it managed to keep the mystery alive till the last few episodes, I somehow lost interest quite early into the story. A lot of sub-plots seemed unnecessary and out of place. For example, the presence of the police officer seemed pointless and just took screen time away from the real story. The absentee father was another disappointing idea that was frankly not needed in this story. Also, the true story behind the ghost when unveiled may have been painful, but her past in no way made sense. Even the mysterious grandmother’s role was quite frankly weird and unnecessary. What was even more hilarious and illogical was that instead of burning the body of the “ghost”, they burn a part of it to drive her away in the end. So, in short, this is one of those stories that start off great but by the time you reach the end, you find yourself highly disappointed by what you witnessed. So, frankly, I would say skip it unless you are a true horror genre fan and want to watch a spooky story. Be aware that this story may be a trigger for people who face depression or are having a hard time in general.
