So depressing
I think it's well written, but it's too depressing, especially the Stockholm one. It reminds me of many real cases, and the evil of people is more chilling than ghosts.
greedy
Although there is a reversal, it is very routine, and I felt something was wrong in the middle. The characters are pretty good, very real and dark.
I feel like the first story and the third story are pretty good, but the others are incomprehensible.
