*********************************
Okay, I know it's after Halloween, but I think something scary is going on here in my entry.
Look at these walls! How scary is this? What is happening here?
Even the furniture is covered up with old sheets in the dining room. This is pretty scary - like an old horror movie!
***********************
Please stay tuned for the next espisode...
I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~
In Our Haunted House
Please come in
You're welcome here
Mind the the cobwebs and the bones
May we invite you to spend the night?
Make yourself at home.
Step this way...
Here's the living room,
Though dead room is actually more correct
Cause there hasn't been a living soul here
Since grandpa broke his neck.
In our haunted house,
we'll treat you like one of us.
But in our haunted house,
That could be hazardous.
Browse around the kitchen,
Have a spoon, a fork, a knife.
You must excuse those ketchup stains,
we ate someone last night.
Here is your big bedroom, dears,
You'll love the creaky bed.
You'll sleep just fine, but when you wake,
You may still feel half dead.
In our haunted house,
the butler is a ghost.
The upstairs maid's been buried for years,
And the chauffeur's comatose.
In our haunted house,
our hospitality,
is something of which we're very proud...
Oh, do you take poison in your tea?
Don't let the spiderwebs mess up your hair,
Don't mind the piano playing with no one there.
The crumbling bookshelves covered with dust,
One or two headless bodies...what's all the fuss?
The dreadful pounding,
the screams and moans,
It's just a typical
night at home.
In our haunted house,
Things float through the wall
You might see sights that chill the soul,
Be sure to wear a shawl.
We'd love you to come in,
Stay awhile and play.
Once you finally settle in,
You'll never go away...
We'll make sure of that.
In our haunted house
~Sung by Andrew Gold

Morning Sheila,
ReplyDeleteI'm always up for a little scare! When you're finished I could use a little help up here in Minnesota at my house, it looks like you know what you're doing! :)
A great day to you!
Hugs,
Kathi :)
Now that's either going to take a lot of paint or a lot of wallpaper. And a TALL ladder!! Can't wait to see which it is.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to come to the Somewhere In Time party. I was in high school when that movie came out. I remember absolutely bawling!
Wow, a makeover in progress! Can't wait to see what you're going to do!
ReplyDeleteI'm right behind you (never in front!).
ReplyDeleteOh NO!!!
ReplyDeleteI keep thinking about how scarey Chloe Dawn was on Halloween...I keep expecting her to "POP OUT" from under one of those sheets!!!
*nudging you up the steps and down the hall ~ and ready to run!*
~Blessings,
Jan

ReplyDeleteOh, have you seen the current Southern Accents (Christmas issue)? I got one at Lowe's yesterday and it has a feature of a mansion on Galveston Island. ...beautiful home! I thought of you when I read it! :) ~hugs, Rhonda

Well it looks like the ghost of a wallpaper stripper came to your home and took all the paper off the walls. I wish I was haunted by a painter ghost that would come in and do the job.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what that ghost has been up to, at least its a thoughtful one that covers the furniture up.
CIao
Sheila, all that dry wall, did your home get wet from IKE? You poor thing. It does look very ghosty in your home. Boo! Lets scare them away.
