Sinopsis

Once a renowned opera Diva, lethal duellist and scandalous libertine, Julie d'Aubigny carries the vampiric contagion in her veins five decades after her apparent death. In a life of inhuman power and cruel sensuality, she navigates the occult intrigues of Europe with the aid of twin companions, facing down enemies both righteous and unholy. Arnold Brennan is a devout young clergyman who believes that all evil stems from mankind's rebellion against God's laws, and that so-called monsters are nought but pagan myth and fanciful superstition. But events set in motion by his father's murder will lead him on a search for truth that brings him face to face with inhuman forces. As their paths cross, these very different individuals must contend with the deadly machinations of hostile occult societies and ancient, merciless predators.

    Enjoy this short story by Mace Styx. 
    Taking the end of the handrail, she forced part of the metal clasp into the slit of the door. Then, standing by the buttons she held the length of wood against her chest and pushed on one end to create a lever. 
    Pushing as hard as she could until, yes, she felt something twitch, the smallest, tiniest flicker of yielding movement from the doors. If she kept pushing, kept trying, the door would give. She tried again, pushing the end with all her might and felt the weight of one of the doors shift. She felt a wave of relief, like a physical sensation washing over her and she exhaled deeply. It would come, she knew, it would come and she would not be trapped. She almost smiled, until she saw the stain.

    The Limerick family began experiencing paranormal activity in the 1870s right after their unique mansion was built. Clive Limerick reported witnessing objects soaring across rooms, hearing disembodied laughter, and crying. Other members of the family reported seeing red eyes staring into the house from the windows. Even the ones on the second floor. Food was thrown from plates and utensils twisted into unusable shapes. A headless skeleton stalked the property and rumor has it, it was responsible for the missing Limerick children. 
     
     
     
    On the day the remaining family decided to finally leave the house, a fire iron allegedly floated up and started hitting the last Limerick son on the head killing him instantly. The family's tragedies took their toll on Annabelle Limerick and abandoned the family home. No one was ever brave enough to live in the house again, until 2021 when the remains of the building were moved to Alabama. But the activity continues. The glowing red eyes have returned and the headless skeleton is being blamed for a missing carpenter. 
     
     
     
    The Gulf Coast Paranormal team is ready to get answers for the new homeowners but are they equipped to deal with this potentially evil situation? With new technologies and some old—they take on the Beast of Limerick House. But will this entity be willing to leave without taking one more life?
