The Haunting of Bly Manor

Narrator:
Toward the middle of the 17th century, there lived in the province of Hampshire, a widowed gentleman. His name is of little account. I shall take the liberty of calling him Mr. Willoughby. A name, like his own, of a highly respectable sound. He'd being left a widower after some six years of marriage, and had devoted himself to the care of his progeny. Two daughters born at an interval of five years apart. The elder, Viola, the younger Perdita, in memory of a little girl born between them who had lived but a few weeks.
