A great case of doing supernatural drama which is more about the drama and less the supernatural. This is a family drama that is cleverly presented and for the most part well acted, with engaging and convincing performances from the teenage leads, and most notably Clara Rugaard as a grieving mother. This starts really well, the first 3 episodes are well paced and engaging, but sheesh it doesn't half lose it's way and episodes 6 and 7 feel like padding. The resolutions in episode 8 lacks the nuance of earlier episodes and the writing for several of the characters at this the most important characters feels sloppy and inconsistent.
Still, it's a rather brilliant example how a supernatural drama can be well grounded, it is worth the time to watch but it is just a bit disappointing that the writing doesn't quite land the ending.
