His depiction of horror feels so visceral and unflinching—I'm curious what motivated him to write this story and how he approached portraying such intense subject matter.

The story's tension seemed carefully crafted, but I wonder if some readers found the slower sections challenging or if they added to the overall atmosphere.

The characters' choices feel morally complex, making me question what I would do in their situation. Did the story make others reflect on their own sense of right and wrong?
