The Merry Widow

After twelve hours of grueling pub-making, I present to you The Merry Widow, a pub in the English style. More picspam and commentary.....















A few exterior shots. The pub was established in the sixteenth century and ran smoothly until 1656, at which time the French relations of the publican's family took over. At that time, Madame, wishing to sell the establishment and return to her dandy life in Paris, brutally stabbed her husband to death, blaming the crime on one of the girls who served there. However, investigators soon found her much bloodied dress. A few months after the death of her husband, Plutard, Madame was taken to the gallows. Their ghosts still haunt the pub and though I have no pictures of them, I offer up their graves, still preserved at the establishment. It was renamed The Merry Widow in the nineteenth century.



First floor entrance.



Same room from the opposite side.



Foyer of the first floor.



A peak at the kitchen and brewery.



Second floor.












These are all shots of the Poe Room, the more private (and creepier) area used for gatherings and paranormal tours/seances.






The upstairs offers two rooms for let, for any aspiring paranormal investigators. There are also two bathrooms, one for each room.

Notes: I left out the bathroom on the first floor. I think bathrooms are generally boring and they tend to be too small to get clear shots. I attempted to get the exterior to look as though it were part of a mountain of sorts because I had read of a pub that was actually built into a mountain. The effect is meh.

That's it! Hope it wasn't too tl;dr!
