Equipped with headsets and guided by a trail of lights, we make our way carefully through the maze-like set. Despite descriptions and visuals that paint “Princess Viola’s” life in her castle like a fairytale, the set of Viola’s bedroom is endearingly familiar, full of nostalgic 1990s touches that hold endless significance for what lies ahead. Each room and each turn of the hall is full of detail and meaning.  You are lucky to get just a portion of it as you amble through.  I really felt a bit too rushed by the light and had trouble keeping the simple framework of the story.  I wanted a basic sense of a beginning, middle, and end so I could enjoy all of the detail along the way.  It is hard to be in the present when you are always looking out for the next light cue to get moving.  A wonderful gothic tone and mood were created.  All the senses were activated.  I just wanted a more clear story to come out at the end.  And, I must say, I missed having actors. But it is the very best of haunted houses – a thinking man’s haunted house.
