“Jay Ghoul’s House of Curiosities” introduces a cast of crazy family and servants stationed throughout the Lyndhurst mansion that make most families look sane. Visitors will be guided through the eerily lit and decorated mansion by a staff of spooky servants. They will be introduced to an undead uncle whose breath betrays a taste for the unspeakable, a wacky aunt whose crystal ball has a short-circuit to the netherworld, the strange son who can’t stop playing dirges on his harpsichord, the miserly father who is still counting his pound of flesh even though he’s become a complete skeleton. The mansion’s spectacular dining room will be set for Halloween dinner but with fingers in the finger bowls and Mrs. Lovett doing the cooking. Visitors are warned not to go into the basement kitchen unless they want to risk ending up on the dinner menu. The mansion will be specially lighted and with the music and live actors throughout the house. Visitors will be able to experience the spectacular gothic castle at night and in a way rarely seen.
