The Burkins

By Maxine Stockton

Welcome to a house with a dark and bloody history. Despite the gruesome string of murders that occurred within its walls, Lucy has embraced the macabre past, turning the property into a thriving bed and breakfast with a chilling supernatural theme. Visitors have flocked to experience the eerie atmosphere and the grisly details of the building’s history.

When a renowned historian of the Burkin family checks in, the guests are drawn into the haunting tale of Dr. Timothy Burkin’s horrific crimes, the tragic drownings of Kathryn Burkin, the ruthless axe murders and hanging of Priest Gregory Burkin, and the shocking poisoning spree committed by his niece Hannah. But the most infamous mystery dates back to 1990, when the entire Burkin family was discovered in the manor, posed as if playing a game of Monopoly – each victim bearing wounds reminiscent of the previous Burkin murders. The killer was never found.

Now, as new clues begin to emerge, the question remains; will they finally uncover the truth behind the Burkin family murders, or will this cursed house claim more victims?
