In the comments, leave a description of a room or area in our haunted house. What does it look like? What kind of eerie stuff is there?
Two starters:
Butler's Pantry: a small narrow room dominated by a huge desk built in along one wall. There are two oil lamps on the back wall, and a dusty, decrepit wooden chair before the desktop. On shelves above the desk are the old volumes of ledgers used by the butler as he managed household affairs, and dozens of small drawers and cubbyholes. One drawer is conspicuous by the large padlock holding it closed. The hasp looks hastily added and was clumsily installed.
Root Cellar: only accessable from outside the house, just by the kitchen door, opening the door reveals narrow stone steps leading down into darkness. The air inside is damp and cool.
So come on, put on your imagination caps and join in the fun.

A large and airy space, dominated by tall windows on two sides, all shrouded by the tattered scraps of velvet drapes. Cobwebs abound over everything, yet fail to conceal the once-bright grandeur of the instruments carefully arranged around the room. Faded rugs, once lavish, are scattered across the wooden floor. A Grand piano sits at the center, kept company by a graceful harp of rich mahogany whose strings still gently hum in the slightest of breezes, and the curvaceous figure of a cello leaning against its stand like a waiting femme-fatale. A dusty music stand commands the scene like a waiting conductor, its sheet music covered with dust and the captured notes of a forgotten symphony...

The large globe dominates the room -- sitting just beside a leather reading chair.
The outside wall is mostly window, and the whispy white curtains flutter gently from the gentle breeze coming through the opened portion of the vertical window sections as the sound of the rustling of leaves on branches fades in and out.
While the remaining walla are obscured by bookcases, the wall on the right is a swinging door bookcase that is teetering, half-openned, like a slow pendulum as if it were just passed through and has yet to settle.
In the far left corner of the room is a stuffed tiger in a pouncing position. Eyes focused, pupils dialated, claws extended, mouth agape with fangs forward and it's looking straight at the doorway where we stand.
In the near right corner of the room (diagonally across from the stuffed tiger) is a stuffed child posed with a slingshot aimed at the tiger.
There's a TV on with a DVD playing that's stuck in a continuous loop of Woody Woodpecker laughing maniacly.
The room smells like sawdust and cocoa puffs.
