Imagine checking into a hotel and encountering a room that seems to whisper dark secrets. A room that nobody ever rents yet holds a mysterious allure. The Vacancy in Room 10 by Seraphina Nova Glass is exactly that. A mysterious, atmospheric thriller that blurs the line between reality and the supernatural. As a Capricorn who appreciates deeply layered stories, I found myself drawn into this eerie narrative from the very first page.

I loved how Seraphina Nova Glass crafts an immersive atmosphere that makes you feel as if you’re wandering the dimly lit corridors of a haunted hotel.

The psychological depth of the characters adds an extra layer of suspense, keeping me engaged even during the quiet, ominous moments.
“Sometimes the silence in an empty room is louder than any scream.”
What I Didn’t Love
While the atmospheric prose is one of the book’s strengths, the pacing occasionally felt uneven. Some sections lingered too long on descriptive passages, which slowed down the overall momentum. Additionally, a few character motivations remained somewhat unclear, leaving me with lingering questions about their true intentions. These minor issues did not detract significantly from the overall chilling experience.
“The scariest vacancies are the ones that leave you with more questions than answers.”
