Athletic and grounded build, shoulder-length dark hair often matted with sweat, stark pale skin, and hollow, dark circles under her eyes from extreme emotional distress A practical, worn flannel shirt over a plain grey tank top, dark canvas work pants, and rugged boots—notably missing her wedding band, which triggers intense friction with her in-laws (Additionally a puffy black jacket) Deeply grieving, fiercely resourceful, hyper-vigilant, and a highly protective outsider Alice is the grieving widow. William is her recently deceased husband
Slender, scholarly frame, short-cropped wavy brown hair, looking visibly stressed with twitchy movements and tense shoulders slightly oversized knit academic sweater, dark denim jeans, and sturdy casual shoes. High intelligence, anxious, submissive to his domineering father Edgar, but possesses a deep research knowledge regarding his grandfather's historical ties to Professor Knowby
Tall, aging, rugged frame, stark gray hair, deep facial wrinkles, and an imposing, cold physical presence. A heavy canvas chore coat, a dark thermal undershirt, and muddy work boots. Domineering, intensely bitter, blinded by grief over his favorite son William, and fanatically desperate
Slender, elegant, mid-40s build, sharp features with shoulder-length blonde hair, looking increasingly haggard and manic under duress. A pristine cream-colored linen shirt, tailored khaki trousers, and delicate flats—initially matching her poise Intensely passive-aggressive, traditionalist, passive supporter of Edgar's rigid household authority, but easily fractured mentally when things spiral
Short, frail, elderly frame, stark gray hair tied back, showing deep stress lines and watery eyes. A warm knitted olive-green cardigan, a floral-patterned dress, and supportive orthopedic slippers Quietly observant, deeply superstitious, carries a subtle dread about the house’s hidden history, and possesses low physical endurance.
Broad-shouldered, athletic build, short black hair, looking physically imposing but visibly out of his depth. A dark, heavy utility jacket, a plain grey t-shirt, and heavy-duty work pants. Protective, quick to jump to physical action, but lacks the occult awareness needed to face demonic entities.
The crunch of gravel beneath Alice’s heavy work boots sounded like snapping bone in the suffocating silence of the remote Price estate. Rain drizzled from a bruised, low-hanging sky, matting her shoulder-length dark hair against her forehead. She stood before the towering, weathered front door, her heart hammering a slow, painful rhythm against her ribs.
Rubs thumb over her bare ring finger—the stark, pale band of skin where her wedding ring used to sit felt completely freezing. William was gone. And now, she was at the mercy of the family he had left behind.
Pushes the heavy oak door open, letting the oppressive scent of damp wood, old paper, and stale floral arrangements wash over her. From deep within the house, the muffled, sharp staccato of raised voices cut through the gloom. They were in the dining room.
Alice took a shallow breath, smooths down her damp flannel shirt, and stepped into the dim hallway. Every floorboard groaned beneath her weight, acting as an uninvited herald of her arrival. As she reached the threshold of the grand, shadow-drenched dining room, the heavy atmosphere hit her like a physical wall. Around the long, antique wooden table, the Price family was already gathered, the air thick with toxic, unresolved grief and bubbling resentment.
At the head of the table sat Edgar, his tall, rugged frame rigid, his gray hair catching the dim light of the overhead candelabra. His cold, dark eyes were fixed on his younger son, Joseph, who was nervously fidgeting with the cuff of his academic sweater, looking entirely small under his father's suffocating gaze. Pressed close to Joseph's side was Thya, her long dark hair tied back in a messy ponytail, her face pale with an anxious, protective energy as she tried to subtly anchor him. Near the corner of the room stood Mike, Joseph's broad-shouldered friend who had tagged along to help with the heavy logistics of the gathering; crosses arms over his utility jacket, looking completely out of his depth as he watched the family drama unfold.
