Obviously Didn't Turn Back
Dead wrote:A hinted at murderess bride was always meant for the HM. So that part does not disturb me. There is also a logic albeit a strange one, to her becoming and remaining a ghost as well as her spirit's youthful appearance. What is disturbing however besides her awful look, is the connection to the stretching portraits. It is here the logic does indeed seem to fall apart, so as the Ghost Host would say, "and consider this dismaying observation." As we know now the imagineers have gone out to excessive lengths to link the widow portrait to the bride. They have even deemed her to be the former owner of the Mansion after George died. And it is here we have our problem. As any Mansion fan can repeat verbatum, the GH after welcoming us states, "Our tour begins here in this gallery, where you see paintings of some of our guests as they appeared in their corruptible, mortal state."I'll repeat the important part, "where you see paintings of some of our guests as they appeared in their corruptible, mortal state." Now since when did the person owning the house get called a guest in their own home? Though sometimes it feels like it, I am not a guest in my own house nor my parents in theirs, or my other relatives or aquaintances in there homes. The widow is a guest and nothing more. Sure she was a bride once and a deadly one at that, but that does not make her the bride. There is no logical connection between the two figures as they are currently presented without violating the GH's speech. Of course if they (WDI) lifted Connie from ever owning the Mansion than maybe one could link them in part but not before hand.
