That is the stuff of nightmares

Absolutely wild. Creepy kids always get under my skin, and Little Leo will haunt my nightmares for a while!
This novella packs a serious punch in such a short space. If you're a horror fan, this is a must-read. The characters are vivid, the atmosphere is eerie, and the pacing never lets up. I especially recommend the audiobook—it adds an extra layer of tension and makes the experience even more immersive. If the author writes more horror, I hope she continues releasing them in audio format, because it's such an accessible and gripping way to experience her stories. 10/10—I need another book from her ASAP.

It's totally okay to write black children into horror!!

Just like the author states in the interview at the end of this book, REPRESENTATION MATTERS. A black child being in a horror setting like The Omen was nothing shy of fascinating. It was SO satisfying to guess little pieces of the storyline while reading this. The characters were fleshed out well for how short this novella read in length. I like the use of the realistic horror of a black female mental patient being "taken advantage of" by their therapist in contrast to the supernatural horrors of conceiving a demon child. Very much rosemary's baby vibes with that theme. I really loved this piece. I hate that there isn't more of Kenya Moss-Dyme's work on this platform.

Don’t mess with Leo!

Love this story! Very very creepy. The narration and sound effects were on point. I read the book, love the audio even more.
