**Comic Cover Set: Velvet & Vespers — The House That Remembers**
Six mysterious women are drawn toward Vesper House by invitations, reflections, forgotten books and melodies that should no longer exist. Lady Evangeline approaches its locked gates, Ophelia Veil searches for a bride who never arrived, Amara Rose discovers familiar faces hidden in stained glass, Countess Carmilla encounters a guest who knows her darkest secret, Isadora Ink opens a book containing their unfinished histories, and Celeste Noir performs the nocturne destined to bring them together. Across six lavish Gothic comic-book covers, separate mysteries become one haunting question: does Vesper House remember these women—or has it been waiting for them?
