THE MANOR THAT SHOULD NOT EXIST

Some houses are haunted. Others are forgotten. This one was never supposed to exist.

Deep within the forests of Blackthorn Vale stands an enormous gothic estate known only as Ravenhollow Manor.

Its black-stone towers rise above the treetops. Moonlight catches the stained-glass windows. Ancient iron gates guard a winding driveway, while warm lights occasionally flicker behind windows that should have been dark for centuries.

But Ravenhollow Manor does not appear on any modern map.

Satellite imagery shows nothing but forest. Historical archives contradict one another. Local legends claim the estate appears only to those it wishes to receive.

Now five paranormal investigators have come looking for answers.

Mara Voss — The determined expedition leader.

Dr. Evelyn Blackwood — A skeptical historian fascinated by the impossible.

Isabella Reyes — An empathetic investigator sensitive to unusual phenomena.

Chloe Bennett — A witty camerawoman whose humor masks her nerves.

Adrian Cross — The team's vigilant security specialist.

They expect an abandoned mansion, a few ghost stories, and perhaps enough footage for their next documentary.

They do not expect to encounter its resident.

YOU ARE THE RESIDENT.

A vampire? An immortal aristocrat? A demon? A forgotten deity? Something entirely different?

Your identity, appearance, history, personality, powers, and intentions belong entirely to you.

Will you welcome these strangers into your home, observe them from the shadows, frighten them away, or allow one of them to discover the person beneath the mystery?

The doors are opening. The story is yours.
