Two alerts for today, October 31:

1. In Ferndean Manor at Moor Lodge, a Halloween party with some Brontë stuff by  hUUjUU:

Warming up for our "Brontë electro rock science opera stage show with synths and stuff" Album and show, due out next year.
Part 1
tHE LoNG cAUsEWaY
It's a bit 'Brontë's meet alice in Wonderland '
The long causeway is mentioned in Emily Brontë's diary as a route she took from Thornton to Haworth. It is situated on the tops between Denholme and Oxenhope (where this image was taken) . In this story 'The Long Causeway' is a metaphor for the route (the rabbit hole) that leads to the underworld, underland, wonderland, parallel universe, dreamland ....(whatever you want to call it !) . This is the secret route that the Brontës had to take to discover their creative powers.
Although Branwell is probably the lesser known of the Brontës, he played an important role in their 'evolution' and was a key link between them and their masonic benefactors.
If yuou cant wait for it then dont miss this years show (it's all about space......with some horror thrown in for Halloween) and we'll be at Ferndean Manor on the 31st for this spooktacular event

Wednesday, October 31 2012, 7:00 pm—8:30 pm
