The cover is kind of disappointing because it makes the story seem more whimsical than it is.

It does not matter the cover what matter most is if it gets the attention it needed

I definitely think that the cover is misleading! Ghost face is iconic and would lead almost any reader to assume that it is related to the Scream franchise.

This was same for me

I agree with you.
