In the quaint, mist-covered town of Elysium, nestled deep within ancient forests and rolling hills, an old legend lingers. The townsfolk whisper tales of moonless nights when shadows come alive, and the boundary between the living and the dead blurs. For centuries, Elysium has been a place of secrets, where the cobblestone streets and gothic architecture seem to hold stories of their own. At the heart of this town lies the Thompson family estate, a grand Victorian mansion that has stood as a sentinel against the encroaching darkness. The Thompsons have long been the guardians of a powerful and dangerous secret, a legacy passed down through generations. Now, with the sudden death of Eleanor Thompson, the last guardian, the burden of this legacy falls to her granddaughter, Lila Thompson, who is about to uncover the mysteries that have haunted her family for centuries.
