What would you do if rejection transformed you into something monstrous?
In 1847, Victor Ashford was a gentleman suitor whose marriage proposal was coldly dismissed by the woman he loved. By Christmas Eve of that same year, he had become something far more dangerous-an immortal predator who would spend the next 177 years systematically destroying the Blackwood family line, one generation at a time.
From the gas-lit ballrooms of Victorian London to the digital age of modern Seattle, Victor chronicles his masterpiece of revenge with chilling precision. He orchestrates "accidents" during the Industrial Revolution, feasts on despair during two World Wars, exploits suburban dreams in the 1950s, and adapts his ancient hunger to the connected world of social media and smartphones.
But Victor is no ordinary monster. He is an artist of suffering, a composer of family destruction, a predator who has learned to turn love itself into a weapon. He doesn't simply kill-he manipulates, corrupts, and psychologically tortures his victims across decades, ensuring that each death feeds his supernatural existence while maximizing the anguish of those left behind.
When the last Blackwood descendant, Catherine, discovers her family's cursed history and attempts to travel back in time to prevent the original massacre, she walks directly into Victor's ultimate trap. Her noble sacrifice becomes the final, exquisite course in a century-spanning feast of revenge.
But with the Blackwood line extinct, Victor's hunger remains eternal. The Henderson family has no idea that their trusted therapist is already orchestrating their destruction, that their perfect suburban life is about to become the foundation for his next masterpiece of suffering.
A Gothic horror epic that spans centuries, "The Curse of the Blackwood Bloodline" explores the monstrous lengths to which obsession can drive us, and asks the terrifying question: What happens when the predator never stops hunting?
