The Dark Rotunda

Ralph and Leonie were made for each other; both lived a nine to five routine and had positive plans for the future and seemed destined for a happy life. Then an opportunity to buy an old mansion in their village came up which looked as if it would put them way up on the property ladder. But the auctioneer said there were problems with it which needed attending to.

It had to be modernised, and it was apparently cursed, or so people in the area claimed. However, oddly, when the couple went to visit the property, they found it in fine fettle, but it appeared to already have a tenant in it. In fact it only needed exterior repairs and could be lived-in straight away.

Obviously, the presence of another tenant was not what they bargained for, and so they decided to give the tenant his notice, except he or she couldn't be found. However, the house was full of beautiful Victorian and reproduction furniture which clearly belonged to the tenant. Frustrated by this, Ralph and Leonie decided to get rid of it and complain to the solicitor who had finalised the sale. And this was were things got decidedly weird. The solicitor was clearly trying to avoid them, which raised the obvious question as to why?

After doing some extensive digging, it became apparent that all was not how it initially appeared. It seemed that silly local rumour had a basis in fact. There was a possibility that Kindlewood really was cursed, and the appearance of apparitions and phantoms soon made themselves felt. To sensible people like Ralph and Leonie there had to be a logical and down-to-earth explanation for these spooky events, but the minister who lived next door at the rectory only compounded the mystery. To their discomfort they discovered that he was really a Satanist who had a very wide and evil influence in the area. But worse than all that, was the fact that he appeared to be trying to kill them and was coincidently in league with Ralph's own boss in London who had the same objective!

Ralph and Leonie needed to get to the bottom of it all, or abandon the property before disaster struck. But it turned out there was a very strange reason for all this which staggered their imaginations and soon became clear. Apparently they had been chosen for a strange special mission!
