  A young orphan. A sprawling country estate. A distant relative with unsettling interests.
  This is a tale where quiet dread builds behind closed doors, and the line between scholarly pursuit and ancient ritual begins to blur. Twelve-year-old Stephen Elliott arrives at Aswarby Hall expecting safety—but the deeper he explores its halls, the more he senses that something watches from the shadows.
  Whispers of vanished children, strange dreams, and spectral figures at the window speak of a secret both chilling and deliberate. Here, horror doesn't shout—it lingers, creeping on soft feet, breathing through the cracks in the walls.
  Elegant, eerie, and exquisitely restrained, this story is a masterclass in supernatural suspense—one that disturbs not with gore, but with what it dares to suggest.
