Gothic horror murder mystery stories

Portrait aged. He didn't. She died.

Mansion locked. Music played upstairs nightly.

Bride buried. Groom danced alone forever.

Bloodline cursed. Twins born; only one.

Attic mirror whispered. Governess obeyed. Once.

Candles lit themselves. Shadows did not.

She married him. Tombstone said otherwise.

Clock struck thirteen. Coffin lid creaked.

Priest exhumed. Bible screamed. Eyes gone.

Rain fell. House sighed. Earth opened.
