A Spine-tingling Tour through Drakesheath Hall

The mysterious Drakesheath Hall is a forboding Tudor house that stands high above the moorlands of Drakesheath, in the English Cotswolds. The people of the village rarely wander toward the house, as it known to be haunted by the Curse of the Godwinson family. Stories tell of how Victor Godwinson (Lord Drakesheath) went mad and fell ill. All of his children either met with horrible deaths or went mad, themselves. Presently, two of Victor's sons - Desmond and Felix - make their home at Drakesheath Hall. Little is known of them, except that they are very bright young men of science. However, the nature of their scientific investigations are unknown. The house is capably managed by the butler, Edmund Folcwalding, and the the housekeeper, Erzsebet Krokrygg.

The year is 1899. You have been travelling across the English countryside, but you must confess it: You are lost. A storm is nearing, and thick, black clouds roll across a full, red harvest moon. The queer howling of wolves is all that can be heard above the autumn winds. The inn in the village has met its maximum capacity, and no other villagers will open their doors to you. Wherever you are, it is a village ruled by superstition and fear. The streets are empty, but you cannot shake the disturbing feeling that you are being watched. Hunted. The only place to turn is to the gothic, stately home of Drakesheath Hall.

Will you leave yourself to the mercy of werewolves or take your chances within the walls of the cursed Godwinsons?
