This was an interesting concept and plot, but the writing style just wasn't for me. I'm not generally speaking a big fan of the 'Fall of House of Usher', but this was an interesting take. I struggle with the same things I usually do when I know the original piece that something is inspired by. This did feel like it added a new idea and twist on the story that I enjoyed. Overall, it was good, just not a favourite for me.
