Review of Haunted CabinI thought this was really great. I am not a big skeptic. So I was interested in the subject, and the narrator made it personal without being cheezy. I really liked the story of the place and the human pain that happened there. The music was appropriate, and not overdone. |

Review of Haunted CabinThis piece is another amazing example of Jake Warga's hidden talents. He can take a story that most would find contrite and ordinary material, and by the end of the piece you are wanting more and more. You find yourself very disappointed when the story comes to its end. |
