The Killgrin

This review includes mention of suicide.

It lays the groundwork for an interesting story, potentiallyinspired byThe BabadookorHereditary.

The Killgrin follows Miranda, who, after experiencing a personal tragedy, turns to unconventional self-help methods. She discovers through a spiritual healer that her aura is infected by a ‘killgrin,’ a parasitic entity that feeds on her misery, compelling her to battle internal and external forces.
