Craven Manor

The job is simple. The house is not. Daniel is barely surviving--out of work, out of options, and sleeping on his cousin's couch--when a mysterious letter slides under the door. The offer: generous pay and free lodging in exchange for maintaining the grounds of an isolated property. The only condition? Never enter the main house after dark. When he arrives at Craven Manor, it's as if the place has been frozen in time. The mansion looms with ivy-choked towers, shuttered windows, and dust-covered halls that haven't been walked in decades. The town keeps its distance. Locals share rumors--about disappearances, about the cursed bloodline that built the house, and about something that still stirs in the upper rooms. Before long, Daniel begins to notice strange things: footsteps in empty rooms, doors that open themselves, and warnings he can't explain. As he digs into the manor's past, he uncovers a history of betrayal, grief, and something far more dangerous than ghosts. Craven Manor is more than haunted--it's hungry. And it doesn't want Daniel to leave.
