“I thought it was really fun and a completely different take on the horror genre.
We've never seen anything based on tarot before.
I feel like a lot of young people today are interested in zodiac signs and such.
It's very related to that meaning.
“Having a group of college friends and making jokes about it would be great.”

“Everyone was so talented and fun to be around.
I think the girls were really into tarot, they were really into it. It was just a typical group of friends.

I think the chemistry between us grew as well, so there were definitely a lot of jokes.”
