Deep Puppy Thoughts (Part 254)
To humanity in general, via Mr. Young (with some exceptions, of course):
“…doesn’t mean that much to me, to mean that much to you…”
And, more privately, via same:
“Old man, look at my life, I’m a lot like you were…”

We Have Always Lived In The Castle (YouTube Audiobook Version Of 1962 Shirley Jackson Novel)
Shirley Jackson – if my experience so far is a good indication – has a knack for making anything creepy, be it actually creepy or not. That is to say, a lead-up to what you feel will be something dark and disturbing even from a relatively harmless introduction, e.g. ‘The Lottery’.
That is the case here to begin with, and it makes it much more pleasurable to know that she has this ability, at least, to deliver on such build-up.
It’s a competently written, slowly developing witchcraft/shared isolation story from the witches point of view instead of the ignorant revolting pheasants.
Unfortunately, this turns out to be a lot more build-up than pay-off. ‘The Lottery’ delivers much more in much less time.
I wouldn’t bother with the film version. I’m certainly not going to.
Upped a notch for competence.
Upped a notch for respecting agoraphobia.
Grade: D+
