The sound effect of the dragging wooden tail creeped me out more than stories that consist of page after page of body horror. I don't have kids but this story makes me want to just so I can read them this story and then play the wooden tail sound effect whenever they misbehave. "Oh, so you don't want to clean up your room today? Well, I don't mind but you-know-who might think otherwise..." /cue wooden tail sound effect.
The narrator was excellent too by the way.
