Profile Image for Raduca Grigorescu

Terrible narration

The narrator was incredibly over-dramatic and her reading was so distracting that I found the listening experience to be absolutely terrible. Couldn't even finish the first story properly, but skipped to the second one to see if she sounded the same, and...yep. She did. So I gave up and returned this book, which I'm very sorry about, because I love horror stories.
