Stephanie answers “Did anyone else think this is a far better...”

Greg asked this question about Hallowe'en Party (Hercule Poirot, #41):

Did anyone else think this is a far better sequel to Ira Levin's "Rosemary's Baby" than Levin's own sequel? The issue of child-murder is distasteful enough and frankly that's rather shocking in Christie's world. But apples and the snake in the garden and child sacrifices to Satan? This could be one of the best horror novels ever...and no one has ever noticed!

Stephanie I mean the child murder was horrifying, but I didn't find the rest of it to be horrifying. Maybe I am just desensitized? …moreI mean the child murder was horrifying, but I didn't find the rest of it to be horrifying. Maybe I am just desensitized? (less)
