Crazy people with money

Pictures from House On The Rock.
There are some under the cut, and even more at my gallery.

Ooh, maybe it's just because I've consumed half a bottle of wine tonight, but I'm really digging that last photo of the carousel in motion. But I think I'd like it even if I wasn't tipsy.

I took a few motion pictures of it and that was the one that seemed to come out best. I was really regretting not bringing my monopod for my camera with how dark it was through the whole place...

*is sober now*
Oh yeah, House On The Rock is not well lit. Which just makes it creepier. I remember the room with the red lamps in the second photo. I believe my exact words when I walked in were, "Holy Fuck!"

The red room is where Cajones snapped.

I think the lions/clock one is my favorite. We'll have to go one of these days -- we've driven past it a jillion times (hubby's parents live on the other side of Wisconsin) and wondered what it was....

It's definitely a weird trip. Expensive though to see the whole thing. We only did 1/3 of it.

Having gone and looked at your gallery, we may wait a bit before we take the girls there. The flower-heads are not the most freakish things there.

Those flower-heads were in one of the women's restrooms. The taxidermied animals in the gallery are in the men's restroom.
It was near the end of the day on a weekday when we were there, so we didn't see many people. Since the restrooms were empty I checked out the men's and Hellbob checked out the women's.

What the hell is that?

And why is it scary to me?

It's a house in Wisconsin where a crazy man collected stuff.
Rich + crazy = FUCKED UP!

And it is scary to you because there are dolls. And creepy flower head people.

Whoa. Dude. These are beyond cool.

Is it wrong that I want to wear the flower-headed thing's outfit?

As long as you don't want to have a flower-head!
Those were in the women's restroom!

I especially love the Carousel one!

DOLLLS ...eeee

[identity profile] mattmn.livejournal.com 2008-06-04 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I really want to go there sometime.

Oh, I want to go see the kitch!!! You make it look so good.

[identity profile] chebutykin.livejournal.com 2008-06-05 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
It's not kitsch. It's crazy.

[identity profile] hellziggy.livejournal.com 2008-06-05 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's the perfect example of what you get when you mix rich + crazy!

[identity profile] whimsywinx.livejournal.com 2008-06-05 02:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Crazy's good, too.

I love the house on the rock! Great pictures of that freaky place! I loved the infinity room - except when it was windy and moving up and down...
