Piece Description
The old house charmed them from the start. Built in the late 1800s, and beautifully renovated, it seemed perfect for Courtney and Landon as they began their new life together and tried to forget the mess they had left behind. Little did they know, the house had a secret of its own.

Interesting Modern Audio piece
I really appreciate that Midnight Radio is trying to do something new and modern with the medium. The storytelling is by the minute, and not hampered by a lot of florid description, as some of the classic material sometimes is.
That said, I thought that there were sections that definitely dragged. The having all the footsteps, and all of those small realistic sounds could add up to long segments with no story being told at that moment. That made me ding it a bit, because otherwise it would be a four.
