It is flanked by twin graveyards (West Yard, and East Yard). Known to many simply as the haunted house; it is a large house in central Tamir surrounded by a graveyard on two sides. It's known to some as Whateley Manor, and it is said to have been transported to Daventry when its inhabitants and others--strange others--withdrew from the Other World. Rosella had to pacify five ghosts who haunted the mansion, including the spirit of a former lord of the manor from before the days of old, dark Wilbur Whateley. The house also contains a hidden tower, the door which can only be discovered by looking at a portrait above the fireplace in the parlor.

  • It is flanked by twin graveyards (West Yard, and East Yard). Known to many simply as the haunted house; it is a large house in central Tamir surrounded by a graveyard on two sides. It's known to some as Whateley Manor, and it is said to have been transported to Daventry when its inhabitants and others--strange others--withdrew from the Other World. Rosella had to pacify five ghosts who haunted the mansion, including the spirit of a former lord of the manor from before the days of old, dark Wilbur Whateley. The house also contains a hidden tower, the door which can only be discovered by looking at a portrait above the fireplace in the parlor. The old Whateley Manor, broods over and dominates the entire neighborhood. The massive edifice was not built in Tamir; it and the two adjacent graveyards were transported to their present location complete and entire--exactly in the decayed state one may see them in--from the Other World. They somehow were carried along when certain inhabitants of the town of Innsmouth withdrew to the universe of Daventry. Not often do inanimate objects make the transition to the universe, thus the folk of Innsmouth were powerful sorcerers. They ran into the sea and disappeared immediately upon arriving in Tamir. They spoke little; they left no tales. The ones who stayed on land gurgled what little information that had been passed down, and then locked themselves inside the mansion. They disappeared from sight, and soon the eerie glows and rays which stabbed from the house at night vanished also. In time the haunting began. No living creature inhabits the house, and the spirits who haunt it speak of little except their own torments. Nighttime visitors have been known to occasionally be rewarded for listening to the ghostly pleas and performing some slight service to aid in putting the creatures' souls to rest. The attic has long been hidden to visitors, as the entrance would only appear after someone helped the family that had been haunting the house.
