Nox Arcana invites you to embark on a musical journey throughout
a legendary haunted mansion with a dark and sinister history...
Darklore Manor, a place where creatures of the night lurk in
shadows and ghostly sounds echo through its unhallowed halls.
The concept of the album, which
is based on the tales of a real haunted Victorian mansion near
Salem, Mass., centers around the mysterious deaths of its original
owners, the Darklore family,
and the curse that yet lingers there among the ruins---and the later
disappearance of three teenagers who set out to hold a séance
in the house on Halloween night several years ago. The story
itself is somewhere between Edgar Allan Poe's "The Fall
of the House of Usher" and H.P. Lovecraft's "The Case
of Charles Dexter Ward," with an atmosphere like Shirley
Jackson's "The Haunting of Hill House."
This real-life ghost story, along
with the ominous music, has all the elements of a classic horror
film---an
old mansion with a dark history, a cursed bloodline, tales of
black magic, murder, and vengeful ghosts.
