Welcome to the haunted palace

Welcome to the haunted palace.   The name is inspired by the immortal Edgar Allan Poe and his poem of the same name.  Especially its evocative final lines –

“Through the red-litten windows see
Vast forms, that move fantastically
To a discordant melody,
While, like a ghastly rapid river,
Through the pale door
A hideous throng rush out forever
And laugh-but smile no more.”

In general I want to share my love of history, poetry and literature and of course the supernatural . In particular, I want to celebrate the times and places where these elements interweave and produce that special kind of magic.
