Mary Katherine “Merricat” Blackwood lives in the grand but crumbling Blackwood estate with her sister Constance and their ailing uncle. The rest of their family? Poisoned at dinner years ago. The town whispers, the villagers sneer, but Merricat knows how to keep their world safe—rituals, rules, and isolation.
Then cousin Charles arrives. Charming, scheming, and hungry for control, he threatens the fragile balance of their home. Merricat senses danger, but no one believes her. As tensions rise and secrets claw their way to the surface, the line between innocence and guilt blurs.
A masterpiece of gothic horror, We Have Always Lived in the Castle is a haunting, unsettling tale of family, madness, and the darkness that lingers just beyond the door. Step inside—if you dare.
