About this listen
Wear the mask. It will come off in the morning.
When a young man from a village comes to the big city to study, he finds himself overwhelmed by the urban lifestyle. But will he manage to blend in by going to a Halloween party, when his crush asks him to help decorate the place, when the abandoned villa becomes all too spooky for him and when the illusory masks everyone wears seem to never come off?

The Book
Being only a short story this dives straight in setting the scene, it then delves into what becomes a techno horror of sorts with people wearing AR style masks projected via their 'techno eyes' so they see spooky Halloween masks and Halloween decorations. Its a blend of modern world and a futuristic setting that is quite believable what with Google glasses and such technology already have been developed. It soon goes wrong however as the projected items take on more of a life than they should and what should disappear once the party is over doesn't. Its a fun little story thats told well and is a nice modern twist on a horror story.
The Production
The narrator was good reading clearly and doing some ok voices, nice to have an english narrator too.
Interesting modern twist

As usual John York is an excellent choice for narration.
And as much as I love his short stories I also hate him because I want more every time.
The story itself is a great one no questions about that !
Recommended !!!
In exchange for an honest review I’ve received this audiobook.
Another excellent one.

This would probably have been more effective with an upbeat beginning and, certainly, it is not helped by narrator, John York. His English accented voice with a slight northern twang is very much a reading, unfortunately. Although his voice is pleasant, clear and well modulated, he somehow never gets into character. An alternative narrator, such as Barry Shannon (You Have Too Many Friends, by the same author) could have better set the atmosphere with a sense of far more unease.
Good idea which doesn't quite work. Read the book instead.
