I hope so too. I'm wondering if it would be better if the monster's origin could be of a more recent time like WWII when the evacuation was going on rather than something that was lurking in a long-deserted mansion. The locals might think it was a monster from an infamous haunted house because of the legends that were already established about the place when in actuality, the entity spent most of its life posing as a little British kid and had people adopt it, with the goal of consuming them and others in the same vicinity. Maybe it has to periodically change host bodies, due to it presence causing the host's body to stop growing and begin deteriorating. Also, unlike a vampire, it can't process the host memories so it must move on to some other place or be found out.
