Originally Posted By Disney_or_bust DlandDug, I thank you for clarifying that for me. It was making my brain hurt trying to understand the WHY of having a churro in the HM.

And it does appear that the Bride's lips are moving. Actually, I asked a lip reader what she was saying, and they told me it was this: "Mirror, mirror on the wall/ With this disguise I'll fool them all!" Then again, maybe I am confusing this with Snow White's Scary Adventure...)

Originally Posted By DlandDug NO changes today, either. No talking Bride, no portraits of dead husbands, no hatboxes full of heads. CONFIRMED.
Originally Posted By lesmisfan this is getting frustrating, first all this stuff just started happening and now nothing! i can't wait until all the new effects are up and running.
Originally Posted By BrnardM Everybody talks about the bride, and it's become clear that the attic could be up and running any day now. But supprisingly I haven't heard anything more about the said snazzing up of the hitchhiking ghosts.
Originally Posted By Sweeper Nothing today either. The piano music was really loud in the attic playing "Here comes the bride" in a creepy off-tune way. But the attic is VERY full of stuff now. Covered portraits everywhere.
Originally Posted By DlandDug >>But supprisingly I haven't heard anything more about the said snazzing up of the hitchhiking ghosts.<< That's right. And I note that all the confident predictions about Madame Leota's seance room getting a major makeover haven't panned out, either. That's the problem with these breathless internet "reporters." They may hear something perfectly valid, but as plans change or schedules are delayed, they look a bit foolish. All these things may well happen-- but they certainly haven't according to the CONFIRMED timeline that some so confidently claimed.
Originally Posted By englishboy Well, today, one of the portraits has been uncovered. Actually a double portrait--the bride and a husband. (Assuming that there are more husbands to be revealed in the coming days.)
Originally Posted By englishboy This one is a soldier--probably a civil war soldier. Anyone want to take a guess as to the occupations of the other soldiers. Also: the dates on the photo fix the mansion right about the time of the civil war. This wedding aparently was ten years after the war. Now are the others later? Or earlier?
