Ah, there they were again. That strange fork in the road. Feared letting go of her hand. But children needed to be able to make their own choices, as much as they needed guidance. ❝ ....

random thoughts re: THE HOUSE ( 91/93 adaptation )

the paintings in the first movie are all recreations of existing works( eg: a homage to Whistler's Symphony in White, No.1 is visible in the scene where Tully enters the house in the beginning of the movie ) that is a very funny gag. But while I do think the Addamses aren't above paying an obscene amount of of money to an artist to do something like that, they would value originality in their home too much to actually go through with it. So for the purposes of this portrayal I'm going to say that the works hanging in the house ARE the original art, the artists then went on to recreate the work for a more commercial audience. No, the Addamses do not mind at all, in fact it's become expected.

The layout of the house changes drastically between movies. The most obvious example is that the Bifurcated staircase we see in the 91 adaptation becomes a split one in the 93 version. The new layout definitely resembles the og house that Charles Addams created and while I love the vision, I also adore the way the house is set out into he first movie, it has that 90's vibe that the nostalgic in me can't look past. So I'm going to merge the two and say, the house had to be redesigned after the events of the first movie ie: the hurricane

Concern showed on her pallid features, pupils widening with alarm. ❝ .... darling... what's troubling you? ❞ She had never seen Wednesday turn down the offer to electrocute her brother before. Ah, those games of theirs. Such diabolical geniuses, the pair of them.

There was a saying that this reminded her of. A phrase stirred in the back of her mind. ❝ A bien petite occasion, Se saisit le loup du mouton ... the wolf will find a reason to take the sheep.... ❞

All morning, the thought had occupied a small corner of her mind, like the delicate silk of a spider's web on the side of a windowpane, growing and growing the more the spider weaved until at least, it filled the glass from top to bottom, and she could ignore it no longer. Her first instinct had been to seek out Mama and have her consult the books for advice...and what she had found there only confirmed the growing fear. Something was wrong.

❝.... Gomez, ❞ She chided gently, dark eyes widening as she slid into the study, a dark void from which the only relief was the glittering of the many rings on her fingers. ❝ Nevermore is a fine institution .... they say half the alumni is on death-row. ❞ And yet, she had to agree with him. Perhaps they should have delayed for a year or so, home schooled instead. Her eyes narrowed as she went on, not at her husband, no. Never.

The Addams matriarch was as ever, only half present in the moment. The rest of her, somewhere else entirely. It seemed everyone else was too, as the days went by and the house sat empty like a mausoleum, devoid of the children's presence. Could see on his face, how much he missed them. Her husband had always worn his emotions openly. A hand settled on his cheek.

❝ the town, is different, of course.... ❞ Jericho. The name alone.

“Cara mia, what is it that troubles you?” Had seen her reflection in the dagger he had been polishing; turning around with the blade still in one hand and the blood-red cloth in the other. A look on her face that worried him. Something on her mind – and she hadn’t shared it with him yet? Furrowed brows for a moment, before he placed the cloth down on his desk, the dagger as well – and stepped closer to this wife.

“– did something happen to the children? I knew we should never have sent them to this school…” High school. What a waste of time! And the house was so empty without them. No screaming. No attempted murders. Poor Thing had been bored enough to reorganize the collection of obituaries by death dates! | @n1teshade LIKED.

Parasol tilted back a little, casting him a thoughtful glance, free hand tucked neatly under one of his. Quiet hum escaped her, her thoughts somewhere between the here and now and the days of gardens past. ❝ Of course... I'll ask Lurch to have the car ready. How about we stop at St Ambrose's? Hallowed soil is best for the ragwort and Father Gallagher was so hospitable on our last visit ... Do you remember darling? .. even said he'd see us off, if it was the last thing he ever did! ❞

A pause there. Turning her attentions back to the garden, casting her watchful eye over the rather barren, dreary looking land. Gnarled and twisted old tree branches that bore no leaves or fruit contrasted heavily with the only real foliage in the form of the many dark leaved, sinister looking shrubs. The only spot of colour, came from the dying lawn. Small shoots were pushing their way stubbornly through the soil, sporting very unaddams-like petals in shades of white and soft pink. The matriarch's eyes narrowed at the sight.

❝ The garden could use a de-weeding, as well. All those daises...❞ An elegant shudder. ❝ A bouquet for Ophelia perhaps, you know she adores them. ❞
