- Roman died on the night of his coronation, poisoned by a servant he thought loyal. It’s been almost three hundred years, and his castle is now nothing but the cottage of a young singer. He finds himself enamored with him, but at the same time, terrified to speak to someone in fear he’ll be betrayed again. Most of his time is spent staring in the mirror, trying in vein to wipe away the trail of blood dribbling from the corner of his mouth.

- In the mid eighties, Patton and his two children were murdered inside their home. The killer’s never been caught, and every evening, the children scream in fear that he’s come back, blissfully unaware that they’re dead. Pat even goes so far as to do chores and make them meals and home school them with dusty books to make up for the lives they’ll never lead.

- The attic has been closed off since Logan died in it in 2011. Nothing could quite dispel the chill of what was his little sanctuary for writing until he hung himself. Beneath his collared shirt and tie is a ring of dark red and purple bruising from the rope digging into his delicate skin. No one knows how he died, and he refuses to tell.

- Really, Virgil just wanted somewhere peaceful to write his music and record. On his first night, when he meets the other inhabitants of his cottage, he freaks out and winds up hyperventilating and locked in the closet. Pat is the one who coaxes him out and tells him not to be afraid. Over time, Virgil comes to love the family he’s made.
