In this HELLECTION, your vote will determine the fate of humanity. Good VS. Evil. Choose Evil and name the destroyer of worlds. Choose Good and fight the Four Horsemen of The Apocalypse. The choice is yours…Choose Thy Fate.
...Or so says the narration on this Halloween season's theme for the Mortuary...NOLA's Haunted Mansion. In 1872 this Grand Victorian Mansion first opened its doors.
One hundred and thirty five years later, the mansion opened its doors as a haunted attraction in 2007 and they're taking this season's theme way too seriously. They've combined it with this years presidential election and its unquestionable importance. Casting the outcome as some sort of Orwellian composite, complete with text like: Gather Patriots within the hallowed halls of The Mortuary and cast your Final Vote. This is no ordinary HELLECTION, your vote will determine the fate of humanity.
These days 'ya gotta do what ya gotta do' to stay afloat and to eventually (all things being equal) thrive! Thematic attractions, while being already an attraction, do have their up side... especially if you want to extend the length of your season. Last year was kinda neat. The folks over at the Mort chose to go with a wedding theme...as in "Blood Weddings". People were getting hitched (deep faked in goth) or with actual paper work. It extended the season far into November.
The HELLECTION thematic (as a noun) for this year...is taking a chance with the customer base marketing model. Or, could it be a shrewd piece of prescient maneuvering. They're counting on a swell of election fervor, now that the Dem's Harris/Walz ticket has got cred.
Will you choose to unleash the darkness or fight against it?
