Plot Synopsis

Based on Stephen King's short story, "Jerusalem's Lot," CHAPELWAITE is set in the 1850s, where Captain Charles Boone relocates his family of three children to his ancestral home in the small, seemingly sleepy town of Preacher's Corners, Maine after his wife dies at sea. However, Charles will soon have to confront the secrets of his family's sordid history and fight to end the darkness that has plagued the Boones for generations.

Rebecca Morgan is an ambitious young woman who left Preacher's Corners to attend Mount Holyoke College, and she has returned home with an advance to write a story for the new and prestigious Atlantic Magazine. Her writer's block lifts when Boone arrives in town with his children, and despite her mother's protests, Rebecca applies to be governess of the infamous Chapelwaite manor and the Boone family in order to write about them. In doing so, Rebecca will not only craft the next great gothic novel, she'll unravel a mystery that has plagued her own family for years.
