It looks like the Lecture Hall from a Thomas Ligotti story. It's lovely.

Vine Room

Boo! Bad pun! no biscuit.

Her Eyes

Vastarien

Give it a minute, her eyes will focus on you....
man that's amazing. Maybe it was there just that once, and was re-absorbed into the walls.

They do look nice and cheery. Too bad you have no idea what's nesting in them.

Activities

Vastarien

Sheltered Workshops are supposed to be a way for the disabled and challenged to make money and learn a trade, such as sewing, repair, product assembly, etc. What many of them have become is a dirty little secret for many in these communities. They are often used as a tax-free (sheltered) way to exploit the voiceless. Many of those who work in them are doing do under dangerous and unsanitary conditions, doing tasks that no one else wants to, such as removing the needles from medical waste syringes. They are paid virtually nothing, since the workshop charges "Transportation fees" for taking the workers there and back. There are many places where few, if any staff understand and can deal with special-needs persons and neglect is the norm.

Cataract

There IS something looking back.....it seems to be a evil clown. Look for the round nose right in the middle, and you'll see him.

Glow

Vastarien

If you look closely, the pattern on the door looks like a monster tree eating children who are sitting on the edge of a cliff, while a Shoggoth lurks above them all.

Float Away

Vastarien

For a minute, I thought those were waffles that had been thrown by an angry inmate and never rescued! Sorry, I've been awake for 32 hours....

Sinister Sun

Vastarien

I don't see a tropical picture....it looks more like an angry twisted monster face with beady red eyes. Does anyone else see it?

Stairwell

Vastarien

The dread Priests ascend this stair, howling praises with mouths seared shut and eyes long burned away by the most dire of revelations.

Rotunda

Vastarien

The Black Cathedral waits for a new supplicant, draped in the echoes of bloody devotion and the fever-dreams of need.
