Quote context

[...]

- About one hundred years ago, a stranger lost his way on such a night.

- Freezing, blinded and stumbling, he saw at last the fitful lights of an old manor house, aged and crumbling on the hillside.

- He knocked desperately at the door... It was opened by a doddering old butler who stood staring at him.

- Then, without a word, he led the stranger into the musty living room, where in the dim candlelight, a man and two women sat without moving.

- The man was tall and dark-skinned, like a gypsy. On his face, the stamp of years of bitter suffering.

- At his feet, a great dog growled ominously.

- At last the man turned and spoke.

- Who are you? And what do you want?

- My name's Lockwood. I've lost my way on the moors.

- Down, Wolf, down.

- Strangers have no business on the moors at this time of the year. And no business here at any time.
