~ A Swinging Wake ~

[Thorn]

"When the crypt doors creak and the tombstones quake, spooks come out for a swinging wake."

Cross over the bridge to the "other side" and join Leota for a swinging wake

Spoiler

The room is supposed to be similar to one of the stories of the Haunted Mansion: that you die while inside and the end scene is a graveyard full of ghosts throwing you a party.

Here, you're on the Haunted Mansion property and fall into the water as you cross the bridge- to be greeted with a party on the other side

The Happy Haunts and I are having a swinging wake right now![DOUBLEPOST=1428872645][/DOUBLEPOST]Got to add @hogie's Faciliegg! You can see the spirits partying in the firewall's window if anyone visits

Your room looks a little "dead"...

It's pretty hard to liven up this kind of party

Without "live entertainment" the party's a "bust."

We'll have to look into hiring a better ghost

I've got a friend who's kinda stuck in a "dead" end job at the moment, but if the pay is good I'll let him know. I'm sure he'd love to make a "killing!"

That would be great!!! I hope he's well-equipped with humility! We do hate to see our entertainers lose their heads!

The party is shaking to 6 feet under the ground! Come and join us and see a few renovations!

I just want to gush about the cool details in this room to those who may not have noticed...

* The Swinging Wake is all taking place on one side of the bridge. All the "active" spirits--the glowing statues, fireworks, Leota, etc.--are on that side. But there's a bottle and lantern on the ground on the other side--the Caretaker saw the goings-on, dropped what he was holding, and beat it!
* The deactivated firewall with a Faciliegg behind it represents an open crypt with spirits flying around inside.
* The fireworks cones send up sparks in much the same fashion as the ghosts flying up out of the ground on the ride.
* Maleficent thrones, briarstones, and troll eggs stand in for ornate, overgrown, or moss-covered gravestones.
* It's not visible in the screencap, but there's another troll egg perched up on top of the night sky flats--it's the moon!

Let's all give Thorn a round of applause for this exceptional creative item use!

Oh my gosh you are so sweet
It's exciting to know someone actually analyzed the room when they visited as much as I did when I was making it
