Not directly a response to the secret itself, but I want to let anyone who knows the story only up to the big reveal (which I think is where the podcast ends) know that there is a part five. That’s all I’ll say, but in my opinion it’s worth it. It especially expands on the lasting trauma the main characters have.

That said, I didn’t feel like the rape in the story was gratuitous or cheap. I felt like it was treated as the absolute horror it should be. If the issue is that you don’t like “it turned out not to be a supernatural monster after all” endings, that’s one thing, and it’s also fair if you just plain don’t like stories with rape involved, but I don’t think it’s done badly for what it is.

I’m not gonna say you have to agree with me by any means. This is just what I think personally.

I agree, I think everyone is jumping to conclusions because OP made it sound like it was used just for shock value, which is further from the truth.

I am another reader who felt the original ending leaned too hard on shock factor. I think people should check it out and decide for themselves, it's a pretty good read up until that point.
