I have absolutely nothing to say about this strip itself. It’s pretty much filler. So a little background info instead. Grimstone Manor is an old Victorian house that once belonged to Lord Marmaduke Grimstone. Lord Grimstone is, naturally, the town founder. He created the town as a supernatural safehaven where monsters and creatures of the night could live in peace and harmony and not be persecuted by the rest of the world. In the town square, which we saw an aerial shot of earlier in the sotry, there is a statue of him. He lived in the Manor until the day he died (he died in the house) and rumor has it his ghost haunts it still. I haven’t decided yet if the Ghost of Grimstone will show up, as I have a few ghost characters already, but he’s likely to pop up sooner or later. Behind the Manor is a fairly large graveyard, the very same one that was featured in several comics of the old strip that was home to Krulor’s ghouls and later, Ribcage & Cyanide. Lord Grimstone is entombed in a crypt in the graveyard. The Manor had been abandoned for years. No one disturbed it for fear of angering or upsetting Lord Grimstone’s spirit. He is respected very much by the town’s inhabitants, at least the supernatural portion, and most would not disturb what is still considered to be his home. Most, that is, but not all.
