About Saint's Rest

Teddy Lilburn never expected that inheriting Saint’s Rest, his family’s ancient and sprawling manor, would plunge him and his wife Betty into a nightmare beyond imagination. Nestled deep in the fog-shrouded countryside, Saint’s Rest is a house heavy with history—and darker secrets. From the moment they cross its threshold, unsettling whispers echo through the halls, shadows move just out of sight, and an oppressive chill settles in their bones.

As Teddy and Betty try to unravel the mysteries of the manor, they uncover a sinister family curse: for generations, one half of every married couple living in Saint’s Rest dies mysteriously on the eve of their first wedding anniversary. There is no rest for any Lilburn at Saint’s Rest.

Desperation and paranoia take hold as the couple confronts the creeping horror within the house—and within themselves.

Saint’s Rest is a haunting journey into the heart of fear, where the boundaries between reality and madness blur. In this gothic tale of psychological torment and supernatural dread, love is both a sanctuary and a sentence. As the cursed anniversary draws near, Teddy and Betty must face the horrifying question: can they escape a fate sealed by blood and time, or are they doomed to repeat the tragic legacy of Saint’s Rest?
