Marissa's hands trembled as she read the journal, the dark history of the Blackwood family unfolding before her eyes.
Agnes Blackwood's entries revealed a lineage steeped in
occult practices and forbidden rituals. The Blackwoods had been notorious for
their attempts to communicate with the dead and harness supernatural powers.
The journal detailed a pact made by Agnes's ancestor, Edmund
Blackwood, with a malevolent entity known as the Shadow.
In exchange for wealth and power, Edmund had agreed to bind
his descendants to the Shadow's will, trapping their souls in the manor upon
their deaths.
