"Welcome... We have been dying for you to join us. We thought you would never come. Oh, the 'things and stuff' we have gone through making preparations for your arrival. I hope you realize how truly happy we are that you have chosen to join us!"
"Please follow us. We will give you a tour before we join the others inside. Stay close to the lanterns.... the graveyard can be treacherous!

Please enter.. if you dare. There is no reason to be afraid of the dark... it is only what's in the dark that you should be afraid of! BWWAHAHAHAHA! Just kidding!

'Keep calm and 'SCARY' on'.
'La FLEUR A rose by any other name...
