Raven Hall Mysteries: 1931 Carter Cycle
A mystery centered on an old hotel in 1931 inspired by Celtic and Nordic myths. more info (link to interest check)
There is a town in North Yorkshire (United Kingdom), Ravenscar, that was destined to become the biggest holiday resort on the eastcoast of England. Plans were made, roads were laid out, some houses were built and sewers were laid. Somewhere it went wrong. Ravenscar never achieved popularity, and the development was left unfinished – a sort of ghosttown with sewers and streets but little houses remained.
This is story about Raven Hall, the local hotel/castle. It was built on the foundations of an old roman fort (from the 5th century, but already completely destroyed when the hotel was built) in 1774. The owners treated brittish royalty and invested a lot in the local alumindustry. Other owners were known as prominent local benefactors, expanding the cluster of farms to the village it is now. In 1890 it was sold to become a holiday resort. However, in 1911 the Ravenscar Estate Company went bankrupt. After that there is little known about what happened. Somewhere in 1928 a mysterious man bought it, Arthur Carter.
Since his arrival, strange things began to occur: disappearances, inexplicable accidents and strange natural phenomenons. Some local people even believe that the creatures from old myths have returned. A range of different people have tried to unravel the mystery, but failed. It's now 1931 and still noone has figured it out. Are you up for it? Are you quallified to solve the puzzles?
