1800s: One dark and rainy night…
What you need to know before your trail
One dark and rainy night, Sir James Monmouth returns to London after years spent travelling alone.
Intent on uncovering the secrets of his childhood hero, the mysterious Conrad Vane, he begins to investigate Vane’s life, but he finds himself warned off at every turn.
Before long he realises he is being followed too. A pale, thin boy is haunting his every step but every time he tries to confront the boy he disappears. And what of the chilling scream and desperate sobbing only he can hear?
His quest leads him eventually to the old lady of Kittiscar Hall, where he discovers something far more terrible at work than he could ever have imagined.
Travel Guide
The Club
A man may walk for many an hour through them. This club with its leather armchairs and glowing lamps is somewhat of a refuge.
This is a smokey and dark atmosphere so rumours of a ghost, a resident ghost is attractive but the story they tell is rather weak and feeble. They try to imagine what their ghost would look like as every respectable historical building has one.
The city
The chill mist, the aroma of the chestnut braziers, “the tall stuccoed buildings loomed black-eyed” above them.
It is a London of narrow and winding streets , silent streets where shadows roam and where you would not want to linger under a lampost for long
