Amelia Estrella’s life is a never-ending cycle of moving, her family fleeing every two months from an unknown fear. When they settle into a run-down house next to The Windy Hallow, a haunted mansion with a dark past, Amelia and her friends, Rena and Tom, decide to explore.
Inside, they uncover a horrific family secret: a monster of a father, Victor, who killed his entire family after a fortune cursed by greed. As they are thrust into the past, the friends realize that Amelia’s family is tied to the curse—and the only way to break it is to destroy Victor. But to do so, they must find a silver blade hidden deep within the mansion, guarded by unimaginable horrors.
With time and reality bending around them, they must face Victor’s monstrous wrath and the deadly legacy of greed. The Windy Hallow holds its secrets tightly, and only by confronting the past can they hope to survive. Will they break the curse, or will the mansion claim them as its next victims?
We froze, the sound chilling us to the bone.
"Did you hear that?" Rena whispered.
"It's the wind," Tom said quickly, but his flashlight shook in his hand.
The whisper came again, louder this time. It wasn't the wind. It was a voice - hoarse, desperate, and coming from deeper inside the mansion.
"Let's go," I said, grabbing Rena's arm. But she pulled away.
"What if someone's trapped in here?" she said.
"Or something," Tom muttered.
Despite every instinct screaming at me to leave, I found myself following Rena as she moved toward the sound. It led us to a spiral staircase that descended into darkness.
