Welcome back to 1001 Ghost, Chiller, and Lovecraft Stories!  Today we go deeper into the atmospheric gloom and ancestral secrets of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s masterful Gothic “romance,” The House of the Seven Gables, featuring Chapter VI, “Maule’s Well”.  In this unsettling episode, the bright, cheerful Phœbe ventures into the old Pyncheon garden—a place of rank decay and strange order—where she encounters the mysterious daguerreotypist, Holgrave, whose conversation reveals chilling insights into the family’s dark inheritance.  Phœbe is given an ominous caution concerning the moss-rimmed fountain at the garden’s center, known as Maule’s Well, which Holgrave warns is "water bewitched".  As the young girl grapples with this deep history, she senses an unfamiliar, vague murmur and an unseen presence lurking in Hepzibah's dark parlor, hinting that the past is finally making itself known in the present.  Tune in to discover what terrifying truths lie submerged within the cursed depths of Maule's Well.
