We're back! Pandora's Parlor is finally back at The Old Barn Antique Mall in haunted downtown San Juan Capistrano. The new booth is in the second room, just past the cash register area. Please come down and take a look! And for those that are out of town, here is a virtual stroll through the new space. Many thanks to my sisters for all of the help and especially to Nancy for doing all the work in setting everything up!</div>

I put together a little clip showing the part I was on which featured a death mask. There is more to the show including a fun part about antique hearses. At the end of the show the Death Dealers have a forensic expert take a look at the death mask I sold them and the expert confirms that it is indeed a death mask and that it is quite old as I suspected - at least 150 years old! He also goes into interesting details about how the person likely died. Enjoy!<br />

I have a tiny table set up in a corner of my room full of odd things and this is where I take the pictures for my website. It is a very small space and I have the table covered with black fabric and keep several props around, books and old photos, things to use in the photos. I have an old 1920s poseable desk lamp for lighting and that's about it - very bare bones. Well guess who likes to see what's going on with whatever I'm doing, especially when I'm back in the room full of mysterious things? Morticia! So of course one must put the pictures on hold and let her explore ...</div>

Very old, probably dates from the 1930s. This creepy doll is made from some kind of organic material, maybe dried apples? If you lean in close (if you dare!) he has the faint scent of apples. Or maybe that is just a left-over smell from the last curse that he was used for.</div>

Really superb antique Victorian articulated medical skeleton. Mr Boney
is really an outstanding antique skeleton with wonderful patina to his
bones. He is a full-height (approx. 5 feet 5 inch) Victorian man - very
hard to find as most old medical skeletons tend to be from Asia or
India and are much shorter. With an un-cut calvarium and really elegant
long finger bones, Mr Boney is a real Victorian gentleman. He does
have a few flaws, such as a cracked rib and two missing teeth, but
overall you will be hard pressed to find another skeleton with the
presence that Mr Boney has. He started out his afterlife career as an
Odd Fellows skeleton and was discovered in a dusty old basement in San
Francisco with several other Odd Fellows skeletons, all in their
original coffins. I have since sold Mr Boney's coffin (purported to be
haunted!), so Mr Boney is now looking for a new resting place - perhaps
at your house? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have posted Mr Boney for sale on my website <a href="http://www.pandorasparlor.com/catalog.php?item=162" target="_blank">here</a> </div>

On a recent trip to San Francisco with my sister Barbara, we had fun visiting all the macabre places we could find. Of course a stop in "<a href="http://www.lovedtodeath.net/" target="_blank">Loved to Death</a>" in the Haight Ashbury section of town was on our list!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I saw an promo ad on the Science Channel last night whilst watching Oddities and <a href="http://www.lovedtodeath.net/" target="_blank">Loved to Death</a> is going to have a new show! Called Oddities San Francisco, it is by the same producers as the original Oddities show. Can't wait to see it!</div>

The shop doesn't allow you to take any photos of the inside, but I did snap a few shots of the amazing old building it is in. </div>

Next, we went to see the Columbarium - a very spooky place! It was originally the Odd Fellows Columbarium and used to be surrounded by acres and acres of graves, which were later dug up and moved.</div>

Barbara and I loved the Coumbarium and were given a tour by the caretaker, Emmitt Watson. Emmitt told us amazing stories about the history of the place and the resident ghosts.</div>

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Not
a lot of things scare me that much anymore, but one thing that still has the
power to send shivers down my spine is an evil clown. I have sold several
disturbing clown dolls in the past and couldn't wait to take them down to the
booth to get them out of my house : - )</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">There
is even a word for the fear of clowns, Coulrophobia. And fueling the fire
is that creepy urban legend about the clown and the babysitter ...</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Clowns Like Babysitters, I
Guess (by Mythbusters)</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> <br />
<br />
</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">A teen female was
babysitting for a wealthy family with a very large house, location - Newport
Beach, California. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">The parents planned on
dinner out and a late movie. Wanting to ease the babysitter's concerns about
being in such a large house, the father directs that the babysitter use a
certain TV room after putting the kids to bed, so she can hear the kids easily
should they awaken before the parents' return.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">After the parents leave,
the babysitter visits with the children, and they all share a nice supper that
was prepared ahead of time by the kids' mother. Afterward, the babysitter
spends time with the kids doing various activities before their bedtime.
Nothing is amiss and all are having a pretty good time and enjoying each other.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">After the babysitter puts
the kids to bed, she goes downstairs to the room mentioned by the father of the
household. She understands that this is the best room to be in so that she can
hear the children should they stir in their sleep and need her to come and
comfort them, but she is bothered by the clown statue in the corner of the
room. To her, it is very unnerving!</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">She tries to ignore the
clown statue and watches a little television, but finally, her nerves get the
better of her and she dials the father's cell number. She knows she shouldn't
disturb the couple she is babysitting for, but under the circumstance, she felt
it best to phone and ask permission to go against the prior directions to stay
in the father's room of choice. Perhaps he would be able to suggest a similarly
convenient place in the home for listening for noise from the children. Of
course, she also wouldn't want to get in trouble for directly disobeying,
either.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">When the father answers his
cell phone, the babysitter asks, "Would it be alright with you if I find a
different place in the house to sit - or if I go read quietly with the little
lamp in one of the kids' rooms while I wait for you to get home?"</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">When the father asks if it
might not be better for her to just read from the TV room, she admits, "I
know this sounds very silly, but I'd rather read upstairs and don't mind not
watching TV until you get home because this big clown statue in the tv room is
really creepy!"</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Immediately, the father
says, "Go upstairs, get the kids - quickly - " and he outlines a
quick route through the large house to the back door. "Go directly to the
neighbor's house - phone me once you're there - go do this now!"</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Alarmed, the babysitter
asks, "Wow, what's going on?" The father just repeats, "Go now,
follow my instructions exactly - go!" </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">The babysitter does exactly
as instructed, and once she gets the kids to the neighbor's house, she calls
the father back. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">"What was all that
about" the babysitter asked.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: lime; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">"We do not own any
kind of clown statue!" the father replied. "I have already phoned the
police and they are on their way over to the house...you stay put with the kids
- we are on our way to meet you at the neighbors."</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: red;">And there was even a movie made with a bit of that killer clown urban legend in it, "Amusement."</span> </span></span></div>

The marriage globe would be prominently displayed in a couple's home and typically held the bride's crown as well as her bouquet (usually made from wax orange blossoms as the one here). The surrounding mirrors and gold ormolu leaves all have special symbolic meanings and tell the story of the couple.<br />

<br />
Rectangular mirrors were related to the number of years between the couple's meeting and the promised marriage.<br />
<br />
The oval mirrors were good luck gifts offered by the bridesmaids.<br />
<br />
The number of small diamond-shaped mirrors represented the number of children the couple wished for.<br />
<br />
The trapezoidal mirror symbolized the perfect agreement.<br />

<br />
The rose for eternal love.<br />
<br />
The daisy for innocence or purity.<br />
<br />
Ivy leaves symbolized commitment.<br />
<br />
Lime leaves symbolized fidelity.<br />
<br />
The tree was a symbol of strength and love.<br />
<br />
Ears of wheat were symbols of fertility or referred to the resurrection of life. They often represented the number 7 to recall the 7 days of the week.<br />
