The rain had fallen on Ashford Manor for three long days, and nobody believed the storm would ever finally break. At nine thirty, Eleanor Vance descended the grand staircase, clutching a single unopened letter and her silver pocket watch tightly. Nobody had seen the envelope arrive, yet every single person in the house somehow knew exactly what the letter contained. Her husband, Charles, was already waiting in the library, pouring brandy with unsteady hands that trembled beneath the flickering lamplight. Outside, the gravel drive glistened silver under the pale moon, and the old gardener's lantern swayed near the iron gate. Nobody noticed the figure slipping through the servants' entrance, nor the muddy footprints it left behind on the stone floor. By midnight the house would fall completely silent, and one of its sleeping occupants would never again wake up alive.
