you switched it up a bit! Well done GA! Not my normal story selection, but you definitely do dark and gruesome well.
I really enjoyed the historical setting and the colloquialisms that were less familiar to me. I also enjoyed the horror aspect here; a cautionary tale like the old tales about a seductive, magical creature getting you when you are most vulnerable (and believing the stories of strangers too easily). The amount of gore is like something I would include, too, so it was about right for me. :) Very nice!
