At the far side of the platform (which is lit by eerie lamps glowing a ghostly green) is a facade of sorts. A large garishly painted wooden structure seems to indicate the entrance of some tunnel, which is shaped like a huge gaping mouth, horribly distended and possessing bulging red eyes. Sitting in front and just to one side of the mouth is a cart, not unlike the Mining carts back in Whisltle, or similar to a carriage, though it is open-faced and horseless. Three seats stand open and exposed and each seems capable of sitting two man-sized persons, so you all should have no trouble, if you so choose to ride.The Carriage seems poised to enter the Tunnel.A general Motif of Death and Morbidity prevades the whole, with coffins of all shapes and sizes lining the front of the Facade. Jack moves forward, followed by a very impatient band, fanning out defensively.Without any pomp or great showy entrance, one of the smaller Coffins opens, and a diminuative figure moves out, approaching your group. A Doll-like Midge, the little fellow is about the size of Kaz, some 3 feet tall. Looking up with button-eyes, the Manikin says in a hollow Voice 'The House of Spooky Thrills costs one shiny Silver per person...well worth it, as such fun cannot be had anywhere else, such delicious fun...' The little Manikin holds out a coffin-like box,whch opens, showing several severed heads..very real heads. One of the mouths opens, awaiting the forthcoming coins...</blockquote>
