Haunted Mansion - the disappearing nursery (Patreon)

Most of you might remember this piece. I did it a year ago. 

What people don't know is that there was a secret part to this commission. The person commissioning it (who prefers to remain anonymous) wanted to imagine themselves in the shoes of someone close to Daisy, the main character of this piece. They wanted a letter written from the perspective of Daisy, written to them! And they wanted this part to be private. 

I didn't mind. I don't consider myself a writer, and this extra bit was surprising to me, but could be fun! So I wrote the 'letter'.
And funny thing is, this world seemed to come alive to me! I felt like I was able to hint at a far bigger world than the image alone conveyed.
In the end, I asked if I could make the letter public, but they really preferred it to be private. So I ended up posting ONLY the image. 

FLASH FORWARD to recently, when they contacted me again, asking me if I wanted to do a sequel! And I would! I felt there was much to explore in this particular Haunted Mansion with its disappearing nursery.
But what I did NOT want was to continue making the letters private. I thought you guys would get a kick out of reading more about the background of this story! So my condition for doing a sequel was that I could make this part one public as well.

So I hereby give you part 1 of this fun commissioned series. Part 2 will soon follow!
