Chapter 1 The House at Raven Hollow

The wind tore through the twisted branches of the ancient forest, howling like restless spirits across the moonlit clearing. Beneath the ghostly glow of the Halloween moon, the Raven Hollow manor stood like a forgotten monument to tragedy. Its shattered windows were like empty eyes, and its crumbling stone walls were tangled in thick ivy and creeping shadows.

Aria's breath came in shallow bursts as she stood frozen at the edge of the overgrown path. This was the place where her family had vanished one cold October night, swallowed whole by a mystery that had haunted her for years. Tonight, armed only with courage and determination, she was finally here to confront the past.

The heavy wooden door creaked open before her as though beckoning her inside. A cold, stale breeze rushed out, carrying the scent of dust, decay, and secrets long buried beneath years of silence. She swallowed hard, steeling herself, then stepped over the threshold into the darkness.

Inside, time seemed to have stopped. Dust floated like tiny specters in the thin shafts of moonlight piercing the broken panes. Faded tapestries hung limp on peeling walls, and the floorboards moaned under her tentative footsteps. Every creak and whisper in the shadows felt alive, as if the house itself was watching, waiting for her next move.

Aria's fingers trembled as they brushed the cracked frame of a portrait. The faded face stared back at her with hollow eyes. Her voice was barely a whisper but filled with unyielding resolve when she said that this house held the answers and that she would find them no matter the cost.

Taking a deep breath, she stepped deeper into the shadows where past and present were about to collide and her true journey would begin.
