Suburban in Witley

This is like something out of Lovecraft:

A particularly prolific forum that deals with Urban and Underground exploration carried a post from a new member giving details from a book in their possession. The book contained a description of a glass ballroom constructed by a Victorian Millionaire, quite special in itself no doubt, but this particular ballroom supposedly resides at the bottom of a lake on the Millionaire’s former estate. The author goes on to describe a visit he took to the ballroom and how it is reached through fantastic underground tunnels, cavernous rooms and waterways. It seemed perhaps a little exaggerated to say the least, but as more and more information was posted it seemed increasingly likely that it actually did exist.

Not only did it exist, but there are photographs, and a map.

Cthulu LARPing anyone?

Pickleodeon!?

I never buy pickled onions. No need to - I make my own. Crisp, luscious, sweet and spicy, pickled onions fit for the gods
