The Silent Companions

Inspired by the work of Shirley Jackson and Susan Hill and set in a crumbling country mansion, The Silent Companions is an unsettling gothic ghost story to send a shiver down the spine...Newly married, newly widowed Elsie is sent to see out her pregnancy at her late husband s crumbling country estate, The Bridge.With her new servants resentful and the local villagers actively hostile, Elsie only has her husband s awkward cousin for company. Or so she thinks. But inside her new home lies a locked room, and beyond that door lies a two hundred year old diary and a deeply unsettling painted wooden figure - a Silent Companion - that bears a striking resemblance to Elsie herself...
