This was really good and pulled me in from the start. It got more insane towards the ending and gave me whiplash from so many twists. 🤪👏💜
More mystery suspense than it is horror, The Only One Left gives a chilling vibe whether from the old crumbling cliff-side mansion on the coast of Maine, its dark secrets, or its little rhyme...
I love it when dual-timeline stories are equally gripping. The Hope family was introduced in 1929 prior to their deadly demise and in 1983 when Kit, a home health aid was placed to assist a reclusive and paralyzed Lenora Hope.

At seventeen, Lenora Hope
Hung her sister with a rope
Stabbed her father with a knife
Took her mother’s happy life
“It wasn’t me,� Lenora said
But she’s the only one not dead
