Overall I really enjoyed this story. I liked how it was a unique plot line with bits of The Haunted Mansion ride sprinkled in. I think people who aren't familiar with the ride will still get a coherent story, but for those that do know they'll appreciate the references.
Graphic: Panic attacks/disorders
The main character has anxiety that sometimes sparks into panic attacks. I don't recall a panic attack happening, but her anxiety is talked about heavily. The character also goes to see her therapist several times in the book.
