City of Ghosts is a real treat, one that even I, a childless cynic, can enjoy with an open heart. Go to Full Review
Doreen St. Felix The New Yorker 04/03/2021
City of Ghosts respects the crush of the city, its noise, its smell, its unpredictability. It also respects the intelligence of children, their ability to process complex and painful truths. Go to Full Review
Alexis Gunderson Paste Magazine 03/22/2022
For as complex, funny, and emotionally overwhelming as the innovative series is, it really deserves to be thrown in front of the widest audience possible. Go to Full Review

4/5
The voice acting is unpolished and often sounds improvised, which gives the series its charm. It's exactly how you would imagine a child interviewing a ghost would sound. Go to Full Review
