Description Lord Edgar Hillcrest's bosomy new bride is having a perfectly ghastly time adjusting to life on the manor. The portrait of Edgar's previous wife is watching her every move, as is the randy, peg-legged stable boy, and the starchy, high and mighty maid with her beady little eyes. As supernatural forces encircle the foggy moors which surround Mandacrest Mansion, one question keeps returning to Lady Enid's terrified, quivering lips… Who – or what – is IRMA VEP?
