Synopsis
Excerpt from Moated Houses
What story can this great, old, half-disman'tled house have to tell! What irony of fate has brought it from a mansion down to a piggery! What ominous voi'ces have been re-echoed in days gone by from rafters now laid bare and resounding only to the chorus of the stye! A certain banned look which the house wears; the porcine purpose to Which it has been put; suggest the work of that slow punish ment which sometimes overtakes crime. Retribution seems to have fallen here upon some dark secret. The house is haunted by some memory or presence strangely wicked or dark!
