Peculiar Occurrences in the 18th Century Town of Sillyshire

Set in the windswept coastal town of Goodwood, Peculiar Occurrences in the 18th Century Town of Sillyshire begins with a romance that was never meant to survive.

 

Henrietta, dreamy and misunderstood, falls for the troubled and obsessive Burton. In 1742, their story ends in horror when she plunges from a cliff into the roaring sea—her body never recovered, her death transforming instantly into myth.

 

A year later, Henrietta returns. Alive. Unchanged. And yet entirely other.

 

Drawn from the ocean with an eerie calm and impossible beauty, she mesmerizes the townspeople who once pitied or mocked her. Soon, fear gives way to devotion. Whispers of miracles spread. Offerings are made. And then the sacrifices begin. Those given to the sea do not simply die—they transform, joining Henrietta in a strange underwater kingdom that grows stronger with each passing week.

 

As Goodwood empties and the line between hysteria and faith dissolves, the town must confront an unsettling truth: is Henrietta a monster born of tragedy, or a queen forged by collective guilt and longing?

 

Blending gothic folklore, dark humour, and creeping cosmic horror, this novel explores how easily communities surrender to legend—and how quickly love can evolve into worship.

 

Gather round. This is a story worth hearing.
