The Answerth family"s mansion seems to deserve its nickname of "Venom House". Perhaps that"s because of its forbidding setting, an island in the centre of a man-made lake, the treacherous waters studded by the skeletons of long-dead trees. Perhaps it"s because of the unquiet ghosts of the Aborigines slaughtered by Answerth ancestors. Or perhaps it"s just because the Answerth household is such a strange one.
