- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of horror fans and people who still love a bit of magic. Leaves you with ideas to chew on afterwards.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Tense from early on, at 3 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

- Skip it if you like your stories firmly grounded in the real world.
