Sister, Sister

In the tangled heart of the Louisiana bayou stands an old family mansion, its weather‑worn porches and creaking hallways now serving as a boarding house called the Willows. The heat hangs heavy over the moss‑draped trees, and the slow, humid night seems to carry whispers of the past. This isolated refuge attracts a handful of travelers seeking shelter, but the real focus is the house itself—its relentless atmosphere of memory, decay, and the faint promise of something unseen lurking just beyond the fog.

The inn is tended by two sisters whose bond is as close‑knit as it is strained. Charlotte, the older sibling, bears the weight of responsibility, trying to keep the business afloat while holding together the fragile world of her younger sister. Lucy is tender‑hearted yet haunted by a fragile mental state, her quiet desperation for stability echoing through the rooms she tends. Their shared history is a tapestry of love, loss, and unspoken sins that linger in the shadows of the plantation, making every interaction feel charged with the tension of things left unresolved.

When an enigmatic young stranger arrives—quiet, observant, and oddly out of place—the delicate equilibrium of the Willows begins to shift. His presence draws Lucy and Charlotte into a subtle dance of curiosity and unease, stirring memories the sisters have tried to keep buried. The house, already thick with atmospheric dread, seems to pulse with renewed questions about the past, suggesting that the true haunting may come not from the bayou outside, but from the secrets that have long lived inside its walls.
