About this audiobook

From USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling author Jeremy Bates comes a tale of mystery and horror set in Japan's ancient Suicide Forest, a place that is easy to enter but, for some, impossible to leave. Just outside of Tokyo lies Aokigahara, a vast forest and one of the most beautiful wilderness areas in Japan . . . and also the most infamous spot to commit suicide in the world. Legend has it that the spirits of those many suicides are still roaming, haunting deep in the ancient woods. When bad weather prevents a group of friends from climbing neighboring Mt. Fuji, they decide to spend the night camping in Aokigahara. But they get more than they bargained for when one of them is found hanged in the morning-and they realize there might be some truth to the legends after all. Contains mature themes.

I was looking for a story that would be scary, perhaps with supernatural tones. The beginning was a bit long, even slow at times. But, the story became more and more gripping, and definitely spooky, with a sense of otherworldly possibilities, definitely causing me to feel like something was about to jump out and terrorise the characters! Unable to put the book down, I found myself completely caught off guard when the storyline twisted, completely throwing me off balance towards the end
