The Nightmare Before Xmas?
As one might expect, decoration of the White House by the Trumps has proven…controversial. While most of the rooms show traditional Xmas decor, one long hallway in particular has been termed eerie, spooky, and right out of a horror movie. It’s presented here for your perusal…you decide!
“Darkness falls upon the land. The midnight hour is close at hand.”* With enormous white skeletal branches clawing at you and emitting a preternatural light reflected by the cold, ice-like floor as you traverse the enormous length of the darkened hallway, you can almost feel the warmth being sucked out of your body. It’s an “abandon all hope, ye who enter here” moment. And wait…do you hear something? Is the wind rattling those towering branches against one another like dried bones? Or is something unspeakable about to rush up at you from behind?! Could it be Jack Torrance wielding a knife, a dire wolf, or perhaps an especially nasty witch? Has the Dark Side awakened? Wanna go for a slay ride along this dark road? You can enter these woods, but you can’t check out, so “…stand and face the Hounds of Hell, or rot inside a corpse’s shell.”* Little Red Riding Hood, you sure are lookin’ good…*
At any rate, there’s no escaping…how strangely appropriate! Alright, cue the Vincent Price Thriller* narration…

Hmmmm! Would one call it “Dickensian?” Or “Burtonesque?”

Watch for the movie, “The House on Trump Hill!” A nurse will be in attendance to revive those who faint…
