They Called Her Mad for Fifteen Years until…

The screaming started long before anyone believed her.

It echoed through the walls of Blackwater Manor on stormy nights, drifting across the marshes and through the towering oak trees that surrounded the estate.

Whenever the townspeople heard it, they shook their heads.

Eleanor Blackwood was the mad daughter of a wealthy plantation owner.

A woman prone to strange accusations.

A woman who claimed terrible things happened behind locked doors.

A woman nobody trusted.

At least, that was the story her father wanted the world to believe.

And for a very long time, it worked.

Until the night everything began to unravel.
