Hmm... I listened to it all, very curious about how it would play out and how it would end. It kept me interested throughout, but in the end it really lost me.
1. For me the big reveal at the end made the story a complete POV failure. Throughout the whole story I'm supposed to be relating to Cory, learning about her background, understanding her motivations. And I thought I was, until she invited her boyfriend to stay at the house, which seemed completely out of character but I was still curious why she would do that. And then suddenly at the very end we learn that she was the one the rumors spoke of more than 30 minutes of story prior, that she knew who the ghost was all along and was in fact his murderer, etc.... I guess it was withheld for dramatic irony, but to me this signaled complete and utter failure of Point of View, and ruined the things that I liked about the story because it turns out the apparently good characterization was just carefully crafted BS to string me along to the twist ending. If you're going to tell a story in close perspective and let me see a character's internal thoughts and reactions, then withholding that kind of relevant backstory destroys every iota of good characterization that you've created throughout the rest of the story. Arg.
2. I was very confused about how this could possibly be considered a happy ending. Dave's outro seemed to say that it was a way to allow her to heal while not denying her past. But to me, this doesn't seem like an opportunity to heal at all. Yes, her emotional wounds have healed badly, but this seemed akin to reopening pussy scars with a rusty knife, and then packing the wound with shards of glass before stitching it back shut again. I can see how it's important not to just deny that the past happened, but this is way beyond that and into reveling joyously in the murder she committed, and inviting her unknowing boyfriend to live with her in this state is no better. The neighbors say that no men have been harmed, but she's putting a lot of faith in their word on this, especially since she is a VERy special case. She was his murderer, so it seems very likely that the previous rules of how he terrorized women may not be wholly applicable here, especially given that the ghost's jealous of her boyfriend might increase his power, at least at intervals.
I'm glad the story didn't go here, but I was expecting the final reveal to be that, even though the ghost doesn't harm men, he is capable of taking over the body of a man for a time, and he would take over the body of her boyfriend for a short while. Like I said, I'm glad the story didn't go there, but for me the possibility is still hanging there.
And I just don't get how her living with her boyfriend there and having sex with him in front of the ghost is going to help her at all. She was harmed by his sadism, but I don't see how trying to make him suffer is going to make any damned difference except to satisfy her revenge fantasy. But is her revenge fantasy going to allow her to heal? I really doubt it.
