WEBS AND WHITE ROSES; CHARACTER INTRODUCTIONS
_
THE HOUSE HAUNTED JEREMIAH long before he haunted it. Growing up as the boy next door, he was obsessed with the mysteries of the home, particularly the girl he’d see peeking through the windows. At nineteen, he enlisted to become one of the carpenters that worked on the house, day and night, hoping to catch a closer glimpse. She remained elusive, only a glimpse of a blue dress around a corner, a flash of brown hair before he blinks. A distant laugh that might’ve been her, or might’ve been his imagination.
A gunshot ended it all, as it always did. When he woke, he thought he’d survived, until he noticed that the house was... wrong. Parallel. Almost wonderful, in a sick, twisted way. And filled with others. But not her.
He died like them, they said. But he was the only one who had died on the grounds. This made him special. This made him chosen.
Resentment now clouds his love for the house, chokes him like a bitter fog. He was the Red King, and he would have his revenge.
