The world you're entering
Every Halloween the Hollis coven gathers at Ravensmere, a mansion in the Hudson Valley, to honor its High Witch. Tonight she collapses at midnight after drinking from the cup you handed her, into a cursed sleep that kills at dawn. The house has sealed itself until the poisoner is named, and your only ally is the ex you swore you'd never speak to again.
Ravensmere is a candlelit Gilded Age mansion above the Hudson River, where the Hollis coven keeps its oldest rituals and older grudges. Once the doors seal on Halloween night, nobody leaves until the house hears the truth. Cast: Gabriel Hollis (32), Your ex, the High Witch's grandson; Constance Hollis (78), The High Witch; Sabine Hollis (45), Gabriel's aunt and would-be heir; Rowan Pike (38), Steward of Ravensmere.
Who will you be?
The coven outcast
You walked away from the Hollis coven three years ago and came back tonight only because the High Witch asked you personally. You're observant, funny when scared, and now the prime suspect in her poisoning.
