It tells the story of a girl that on her wedding day initiate a game of hide and seek on her wedding feast and is never seen again. Years goes by without a trace of her before she is found in a chest where she hid so many years ago with claw marks on the lid. The story is often set on Christmas day and it was certainly a tale they used to tell during Christmas times.
A great hall during Christmas times with good food, merry guests and an unmistakable sound of a harp playing a love song. Scared yet? No? Sounds like the right vibe for a cozy Christmas time perhaps.

This is what festive guests might hear echoing through the halls every Christmas Eve at Stubley Hall, reminiscing about the tragedy of war and love.
