These are previous posts that have been dusted off, updated, and
freshly presented to an audience that’s never seen them. These limited posts
originate from the companion blogs I’ve written for the first two installments
of the Eternal Curse Series (40 Days and Nights of Eternal Curse & EC:
Battleground a Survival Guide).
*******************************************************************************************
The
majority of the story occurs at the secluded country home of Abraham and
Giovanni, but there are a few other places worth mentioning. In the beginning,
Mira starts out at her home in Chicago. Later in the story we learn that
Abraham his from New Jersey and that he and Giovanni lived there for a short
while together. Part of the story also takes place back in time, to a
non-specific village in the ‘old world’. Then on top of all that, the reader
even gets to visit the edge of heaven.
Abraham
and Giovanni’s secluded country home exists in a made up Virginian town called
Whitteltown. Whitteltown is the epitome of small town America, complete with
superstitious and nosy neighbors. Their home is actually a large estate
located that the end of town, off into the wilderness. The house and the
surrounding acres of land where they live is called, Sinclair Manor. While this
name is not something I made up, I used it simply because I liked the sound of
it.
Sinclair
Manor beckons to the image of an English aristocratic estate, complete with
several beautiful lavish gardens and a large stately house at the center of it
all. It is a very quiet, secretive, and almost magical place. The house itself
is almost another character, on its own.
The
reader learns that the house has quite a unique history and that it has been
renovated many times to ultimately become a place that Giovanni would never
want to leave, unless he just wanted to. The house serves as refuge or
semi-utopia for the difficult and complicated lives that Giovanni and Abraham
have lived.
