"Sacculina" by Philip Fracassi is a fun horror novella with a creepy ocean setting. The story is fast-paced and keeps you engaged, but the characters could be better developed. Overall, a decent choice for a quick horror read.

This was just a really creepy  novella. Doesn’t say anything ground breaking but was a very enjoyable read. It could have been longer but didn’t feel like it was missing anything at the same time. If you have a fear of the ocean already maybe skip this one.
