Lyrics:
“The year is 1884. These are dark, troubled times, fraught with greed, envy and prejudice. It’s two worlds divided: rich and poor, black and white, master and servant, the living and... well... the not quite dead. Oh yes, that’s right: the spirit world plays a large part in this story that you are about to hear.
Allow me to present Abby and Daniel. A happy couple, obviously. Head-over-heels and completely smitten with each other. Aren’t they adorable? They could not know of course that their love was doomed even as it started. And that fate was about to deal them the cruelest hand imaginable...
I feel I should warn you, this tale is not for the faint of heart. Things go dreadfully wrong for our young lovers. The terrible, horrific sequence of events that’s about to unfold here will surely be too much for the tender-hearted. There... ha! My duty to you is fulfilled, and you may now proceed... but at your own risk.”
