The Gilded Poltergeist of Blackwood Manor

# Supernatural Fake-out

The sudden, dramatic 'levitation' of a priceless silver candlestick during a tense family gathering at a remote country house throws the Blackwood clan into a panic, forcing a visiting investigator to untangle a web of inherited shame, financial desperation, and accidental contamination of the scene that makes a simple theft look like a curse.

Anachronistic blend of late 19th-century frontier tools (hand-forged iron, oil lamps, hand-cranked phonographs, telegraph wires) and isolated pockets of early 20th-century luxury (primitive electrical wiring in the main house, a manually-operated dumbwaiter, a mechanical lockbox). No digital or advanced electronic systems.
