"Your family was never supposed to be here." A year after Zayd Hasan's miraculous return, the dust has barely settled. But Blackwood Manor-ancient, crooked, and very much alive-has other plans. When sisters Aiofe and Mandy Westmore move into the estate following the death of their parents, they don't just inherit a crumbling manor... they inherit a legacy soaked in blood and silence. What begins as strange dreams and vanishing rooms quickly spirals into something darker: mirrors that don't reflect, voices that speak in forgotten tongues, and a curse that dates back to the very first Eliza Blackwood-a woman whose name was never hers, and whose pact still echoes through the walls. As Zayd, Leah Slamvar, and a group of former student-historians scramble to decode Blackwood's past, Aiofe is pulled into a nightmare of ancestral memory, haunted bloodlines, and time loops that demand sacrifice. And Mandy? She might be the key... or the cost. But some truths were never meant to be unearthed. And in Blackwood, remembering can be more dangerous than forgetting. In this thrilling third instalment of the Once Upon Historians series, Danika Prasad weaves a haunting, high-stakes mystery where time fractures, identities shift, and history refuses to stay in the past. The house is awake. The loop has reopened. And this time, it's personal.
