Looks great and very creepy! Can't wait to see more pictures.
Sugar Creek Plantation (2014 Indoor Display)
6
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the bayou.
The year is 1938. The current owner of a (now-defunct) Sugar Creek Plantation has invited several prominent members of New Orleans society to the mansion for a Hallowe'en Ball. After the Civil War, the house and its grounds fell into a state of disrepair, compounded by the financial crisis of The Great Depression.
Once a grand estate, a sinister presence now resides within the plantation and over the surrounding bayou. Talk of hoodoo rituals, ghostly apparitions, and the howls of a strange beast whenever the moon is full have fueled rumors of the mansion's curse.
The New Orleans socialites are eager to unlock the plantation's secrets. Unbeknownst to them, however, their host has a secret of his own, one which may put their very lives in jeopardy.
With setup finished I couldn't resist posting a few photos for your enjoyment!! Plenty more to follow in the days leading up to and following my annual party on the 25th. Please, let me know what you think! And stop by again soon for an update! Your tour of the plantation is not nearly finished.

I cannot thank you all enough for the compliments! I promise more photos are coming, including wide shots to give you a sense of the entire display.
Hah! Thank you very much, unorthodox! I actually found this little guy in the attic, totally skeletonized already. Bones are a big part of the voodoo theme, but so are birds for their symbolic value. I have a lot of bird related stuff--claws, and jarred fetal specimens. Only view this thread during the daylight hours from now on; it only gets worse from here!!
Disembodiedvoice, the dummy isn't as old as I'd like (one day I'll get my hands on an antique ventriloquist dummy) but he does his job for now! People are freaked out by dolls, period. So sit yours anywhere and I can almost guarantee some adverse reactions
