Summary
I often believe that John Wick should never have returned to the large white mansion he had rebuilt following the death of his dead wife Helen...
Nor should he have brought me there, his plump and socially awkward second wife, whom lives in the shadow of the spectre of the beautiful and treasured first Mrs. Wick...
When a warning from John not to take a path close to the house or go into the basement is soon followed by unearthly noises, I come to believe that Helen Wick's spirit is haunting the image of the house where she lived with her husband.
Little do I realize, however, that the truth is far more horrifying...
And that it also bites.
A Smutty, Gothic Romance, Horror, Comedy, Parody just in time for the month of Halloween...
Please forgive me.
