The Paper Bride

Lillian Drake, the Paper Immortal, came to Shadowbrook. Rumor had it that if you brought an old heirloom from home, you could trade it for a living Paper Bride. Marty Milton traded a bronze mirror dug from his ancestral grave for a stunning Paper Bride, which made Brian Dalton’s heart stir too. But Brian Dalton passed off an iron basin as an old heirloom and ended up with an old, ugly, lame woman. Unwilling to accept it, he dressed his own sister Alice Dalton up as an old heirloom and offered her to Lillian Drake. But she fell into a hidden passage beneath the Altar and uncovered the shocking secret behind the Papercraft Shop—Victor Hobbes had conspired with Lillian Drake and Steven Wade to use the “Paper Bride” legend to swindle villagers’ antiques and “Immortal Water” to control the abducted women and villagers. Brian Dalton and Alice Dalton went into the Tomb to rescue trapped women, but Victor Hobbes turned the tables and framed them. Lillian Drake’s conscience awoke; she sacrificed herself to help the siblings escape. After Alice Dalton called the police, the police cast an iron net and wiped out the entire criminal gang.
