Please understand whence* Lady Lauree speaketh. Here, at
The Haunted Yard, we are well accustomed to commanding the light, the sound, the moving, the dead, the undead, the lightning, the thunder, the hot, the cold, the fun and the fear. We are the masters of the night, allowing or denying the eerie or creepy or fantastic... at our whims.
We present the spirit, the witches' spell, the boiling cauldron, the cold smoke across the field. We summon the darkness, we call for the light. We can deny the curious, or sate the hungry. We dictate the fire, the brimstone, the very essence of fear itself.
And we present the levity. We offer laughter and merriment. We offer a caring hand to the children. We cater to the needs of the sad, and mend their sadness.
Yes, we are the puppeteers - we decide whether to emote horror or happiness. We dictate our will upon the masses.
We fear not the hand of Kings nor Queens. We are available for consult.
So, it is a far too simple concept for any of us to understand the harmony of the day and the night, the hot and the cold, the
Yin and the
Yang. We acknowledge the need for balance, and balance must be maintained. It is a universal necessity.
Are we evil? Are we good? Yes. No. We are all these things. But we surpass all these things. We are
DISNEY PIN COLLECTORS.
If your neck isn't comfy in a Boa, drop by
The Haunted Yard one October, and we'll adorn it with a noose. Many a corpse has been cut down in early November here at the 'Yard, having fulfilled their purpose. It's not exactly a
No-Prize, but we'll make allowances.
We'll all meet at Animal Kingdom. We'll all be appropriately ill-behaved. We'll all assist one another, embarrass one another, laugh at one another, and learn a lot about each other and ourselves. Wanna play? We'll be here.
Our throng is open to all who would apply. We are Pin Traders. Get a lanyard. Come and enjoy.
Rather keep your kingdoms separate? Cool. Wanna trade? OK. Wanna meet at AK?
I'll be there.
-Ya'll play nice, now... ya' hear?
(Oh, and if you turn my beloved "
Mother-In-Law of the West" into a dog, I'll bet you brimstone to biscuit-bones that Kerberos will soil your carpet and chew your leg for repayment of your deed. You have been warned.)

*For those that would prematurely condemn the YardHaunter for atrocious grammar, please understand that whence literally means "from which", and as such, includes an implied 'from'. Consequently, "from whence" is redundant - "whence" is correct. - my Mother taught High School English for thousands of years. Trust me.
