 It features a style of music that bears a similarity to Joseph Vargo's earlier work on the album "Born of the Night" with Midnight Syndicate, a group that he helped to establish in 1998 prior to his founding of Nox Arcana.The music on "Darklore Manor" consists of piano, violin, pipe organ, harpsichord, with vocal choirs and brief ghostly narrations that invite the listener to "embark on a musical journey throughout the haunted halls of a Victorian mansion".The accompanying booklet features a history about the Darklore family and their "stark and grim abode" of which its "former splendor was lost to the ravages of time" and where "spirits of the dead do not rest easy."
