Last Updated : 2023-08-19The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances Preface and warnings
This book is a serial book of supernatural mystery stories so If you like to read monster stories or monster hunter stories, with a touch of mystery and romance you are reading the right book. You don't need to read all of them to understand a single story, I do recommend reading them all since characters will have ongoing arcs. But you can skip a story if it's not that exciting to you and don't mind losing some character development. The book has a stable cast of characters and some others will be recurring. this book takes place in Victorian England and the work won't ignore the time period, so expect some time-period problems like racism, bigotry, etc, they exist in this universe. But characters from all walks of life will be present in the book (LGBTQ+ and BIPOC can appear is what I mean). This book does try to stay as truthful to the time period as possible and the legends and folk tales of the places it tackles, however, some historical anachronisms may happen, and sometimes

London, 1863 A new morning in London, as cold as foggy as only the British Isles could be, the smell of baked goods, wet pavement, carriages making their rounds and the children screaming in the streets trying to sell the morning paper. And did they ever have the most intriguing of headlines to keep the readers interested "Lord Reginald found dead under mysterious circumstances" What a hook for readers that was, apparently one of the Queen's richest of friends was found dead it was impossible not to grab a copy. A young blonde noblewoman by the name of Elizabeth certainly thought so, quickly buying her paper and sitting at 'Mrs Marcy's tea shop' near one of the booths against the windows (the place where she and her mother would sit and where she was to meet her that afternoon) she quickly opened the designated page where all the information about this heinous crime happened. "Today at 5:30 the police found the body of Lord Reginald of Lincolnshire, at the night house establishmen

The day had not improved and still cloudy skies ruled over the firmament and dawned over the city.But no bad weather was going to slow Elizabeth down as she reached the steps of the Night Rose with nothing more than sheer will, smiling to herself as her skirt ruffled gently in the wind as she ascended towards the door.While she moved towards her goal she could see the metropolitan police guardian at the perimeter, apparently, the commotion had drawn people around the city to gather near the place hoping to get a glimpse of the body or a simple piece of information that would make for great gossip"Elizabeth" a voice called her making her stop at the steps, it was familiar and friendly, she turned to the owner of that warm brassy baritone voice and was greeted by the charming smile of Henry Lewis.He was a handsome brunette gentleman, with brown eyes and a considerably tall stature, a slender yet athletic physique. But most importantly a friend from childhood.They walked to each oth

Kent guided Elizabeth through the complex, it was a three story building with a terrace included on top. They walked up to the second floor where they found a lounge area and then a large corridor that had separate rooms like a hotel would, but this where clearly for other types of adult needs. He didn’t stop until the reached the room where the murder happened and he opened the door for her, letting her walk in first. "Thank you, Mister Kent, you are very kind" she said as she stepped into the room "let us see what we have here". She looked at the room and took it in as if it was a picture, she studied the room: there was an outline on the floor around Lord Reginald's body, there was a vase knocked out on the floor smashed into small fragments and flowers around it, a painting slightly moved from its position; in addition to that a bed with the sheets taken off of it and bathtub that was not used. It was clear that this was a room used for discreet callings and Lord Reginald was

Elizabeth and Trainee Kent were now on the opposite side of the Night Rose, waiting for their 'accomplice' to join them.The English lady fixed her gaze at the door as she softly spoke to her companion "thanks for indulging my curiosity Mr Kent"."I am much obliged to do so Miss Carter, I am too of a curious nature and not always appreciated when I try to give my opinion." he answered as he placed himself at her right."How many years have you been in the police force Mr Kent?" She said finally facing him."Five years, almost six Miss." He folded his arms and laid back against the wall behind him."And you are still in training?" "That's correct, apparently I am not ready to face real police work." The tone of his answer was one of frustration, years of dedication and nothing to show for them, always trying to prove himself but never being recognized for his effort."I imagine" she shared the sentiment "people tend to side-eye to people who won't do what's expected of them…waiting fo

The young aristocratic woman sat in her usual booth at 'Mrs Marcy's tea shop', where she had been hours earlier.She gestured at the waitress and asked for her usual, as soon as she was gone she looked out the window seeing a thousand people going on with their day and as she looked she lost herself in thought.Her mind wandered to the crime scene and Lord Reignalds body, and how two sharp holes in his neck were vexing her, as to the nature of their existence.Her train of thought would be stopped by someone sitting in front of her, it was none other than her mother: Lady Diane.Well...I take it you have read the papers?!" Her mother said as he set her purse to the side, she then swiftly looked at the server and gestured to her to bring her usual as well."And I take you have also embarrassed your brother and me, by poking your nose at that den of damnation…the chief of police was kind enough to let me know." Lady Diane took a good look at her child, her dark green eyes fixed on the w

Everyone in the room was silent, she was giving a solution that didn’t make sense to them and it was certainly not amusing the mayor Sawyer.Thomas was surprised by her words but on a quick inspection, she was right. Mayor Swayer held his daughter close “I think you better explain yourself at once'' the idea was not at all appealing to him in the slightest.His only living child eloped with the grandson of a witch, he was not going to allow that in any shape or form. Not without a very, very, very good explanation. Elizabeth extended her hands forward signalling everyone to stay in place and give her time to explain, her breath was heavy after that horse ride but she was determined to save Maggie “Thanks to Thomas's brave efforts…'' she said acknowledging her companion “we found out that Hellhounds are given a name to destroy, they can't harm innocents only the person whose name was given to him. The answer then is to change her name'' She was starting to make sense to everyone e
The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances The Hellhounds of Crawley: Racing against the sun
Elizabeth had waited for hours and the sun was threatening to completely disappear, she was worried and alone. She had paced back in forth for hours and had sat on a nearby rock too.She was scared for Thomas and the mission he had embarked on alone, he could be dead or been fragged to hell, and everything her mind could come up with was unnerving but luckily a familiar purr was heard down her leg helped her ease her down a bit, it was Claudia Martins's calico cat, Missy. She picked her up and held her in her arms and petted her holding her close to her chest.“How are you feeling miss Kitty?”. the cat meows at her as it starts moving her head in circles against her chest “You must have been very scared and alone, don’t worry I’ll take care of you so you don't have to be alone anymore''.They kept each other company until she heard the steps of someone running out of the cave and from the dark and shadowy cave Thomas Kent's image appeared, he was breathing fast and with an extremely
The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances The Hellhounds of Crawley: The cave from Hell
Elizabeth and Thomas were determined to find this cave and they decided to go prepared, crosses, holy water and anything resembling faith. If this truly was going to be a walk through the caves that lead to the pits of hell they wanted to be as close to heaven as possible.They walked up to Clauida’s house since they thought that there might be a chance that the gate to hell would be nearby.The once peaceful place was now destroyed and torn open by an angry swarm of people, in their fear-mongering minds there can be no traces of a person that called on the devil.Thomas and Elizabeth searched for hours, the grounds near the house and had even gone as far as to return to the home itself to see if the cavern was inside of it.But there was no trace of it so they started walking from it outwards to expand their search and in a couple of yards, Thomas found the dreaded entrance.There was a sombre aspect to it, while they found what they needed deep down they didn’t want to believe that
The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances The Hellhounds of Crawley: Looking for a way forward
A quick envoy to Murrey would alert The Society to the most basic of information about the events of the last night and urged them to go directly to the mayor's house.The pair of detectives walked to the Sawyer house to find a congregation of familiar faces as soon as they crossed the threshold of the house.Sitting on the Sofa you could see Genysys Crisco with a cup of tea in hand looking both angry and upset, Rory Thompson resting against the wall in the corner, his body language was one of not wanting to draw attention. Lucas Sawyer was standing behind his daughter in a protective stance with a concerned look in his eyes, Maggie had a tired and pained expression this was waying on her heavily. The Reverend of Crawley was also there, bible in hand in his full attire, with holy water in one of his pockets pacing around the room.Elizabeth and Thomas took steps closer to them and when they finally found the courage they finally spoke “What happened? Tell us, and spare no detail”Th
The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances The Hellhounds of Crawley: The Hunt beigns
Maggie was walking down the streets in the early night accompanied by Rory Thompson, they shouldn’t be walking together but they just couldn’t be that far away from each other. Rory was a little more protective now of her, while her father believe danger had passed the Thompson boy was not that at ease since he heard the events of the death of Claudia Martin. He made sure that Maggie knew some of the details of what happened there, as least graphic as possible but he avoided the alleged curse that she left before giving herself to the dark one. Maggie was happily being led by Rory as she was latching onto his arm, she felt happy, she hoped that this was a thing they could do in daylight, going on picnics and strolling down the streets like men and wife. There was a small almost imperceptive sound reminiscent of a hound that got Maggie to stop and turn her head back to the road they were walking “Did you hear that?” Rory looks back to where she is facing but he shrugs his shoulders
The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances The Hellhounds of Crawley: Aftermath
Elizabeth sat comfortably at Alan Murray's kitchen table. A cup of tea was resting near her with toasted bread and slices of cheese as the house owner was taking off her bandages to clean her burn. Alan took a soft wet cloth and started to clean the wound gently, even tho his movements were slow and careful she still winched in pain ever so often “Do you think it will leave a mark?” “I am afraid it will Lass, this is going to be with you for life…” He says completely sure but smiles at her “But it will be a reminder that you saved someone's life once, a person that was dear to me” Elizabeth hissed as the burned flesh on her palm was being cared for but tried to keep high spirits “It was my pleasure, I know that Michael is very dear to you…and the type of attachment you made with him after your wife died.” Alan was silent for a couple of seconds, that was a secret he didn’t want anyone to know about there was something about this London girl who knows more than a Lady should that ma
The Victorian Society of Strange Ocurrances The Hellhounds of Crawley: The burning of the witch
After the events that transpired at the mayor's Lucas Saweyer’s house where an undead attacked the only living child of the town’s leader, Maggie, by moving corpses commanded by the town's doctor Claudia Martin. The residents of Crawley had been shaken that night and the whole affair was aggravated by the days of fear that they had experienced with the fog and the horrible images it could be holding, the imagination was an enemy to the people of this town. When this type of tension, feelings of unsafety and fear collide in people's lives for this long it pushes people to their most primal selves…and the residents of this town had enough of all three and qualified their actions after the events transpired as primal would be too kind. The burning of a Witch had not been a thing in civilised England in a long time, even the late Queen Anne had pardoned one Jane Wenhamw from hanging a century ago out of the out barbarity of the whole affair, and probably due to her innocence. But the c
