While children may be off trick or treating and teenagers are busy throwing barely-even-seasonal parties, some adults prefer a more sophisticated way of celebrating Haunted Hallows. What could be more fancy than a large mansion, tiny little canapes that require at least a dozen to be eaten for any satisfaction, champagne towers that are completely impractical and... murder. That's right, for the first time in recent history, the mysterious old woman who owns that creepy mansion, you know the one (often rumoured as haunted) has opened her doors for a quaint little party. Dress up and enjoy! It will be a night... to die for.

Welcome to the Parlour The guests have been slowly arriving for an hour now, mingling in the parlour where they receive a seemingly endless supply of canapes and drinks. A tangible tension is building in the air as everyone awaits for their host; not much is known about the owner of the mansion, save that she is a solitary old woman who rarely leaves her home. It seems that the room is ready to explode from the pressure when the grand clock strikes 6, and the booming of the bells rings through the foyer.
You swear you hear a cackling as the bell rings that ceases as the clock goes silent once more, a soft susurration being the only noise floating over the hall. Finally, a voice breaks the silence; it seems both soft and commanding, a voice of a person who is used to being listened to.
"Please, step into my parlour..."
It seems impossible to resist the beckoning, and the large double doors of the entrance hall swing open to reveal a grand parlour with offensively expensive architecture and decorating. Two grand staircases flank a marble fountain, leading to what seems like an endless amount of hallways and rooms. To either side of the parlour are now-open doors leading to more sitting rooms to the right, and dining rooms to the left. With no further instructions given by the host who is yet to reveal herself, it seems there is nothing more to do now than to entertain yourselves.
Nothing like killing time...

RP Response:
This was nothing like Fenris had ever imagined. Even when dressed the best he could, having gone out and bought himself a perfectly tailored-suit, the grimm felt exceptionally out of place. Between the other guests, the grand architechture of the mansion itself, and the snacks set out for them...Fenris really wondered why lil' ol' him was worthy of an invite.
When the double doors opened, he almost dropped his cracker topped with goat cheese and mango bits. So grand. So intimidating, so...mysterious.
"Well. That's one way to start the party." He quipped, grinning to the person to his immediate right before popping the last of his cracker into his mouth.

RP Response:Adalina wasnt exactly impressed with the mansion on first appearance, it seemed to be lacking. She wouldnt ofcourse insult her host by making her thoguhts verbal but she couldnt help but think it. However when the double doors swung open revealing the parlour room, she couldnt help but eat her thoughts. Perhaps she had been too hasty. Waiting for the host to arrive Ada tapped her foot, it seemed quite rude to not immediately greet your guests upon arival. She would never stand for such a thing at one of her parties.
Looking around the room she wondered if her husband had arrived yet, surely he wouldnt have shown up late. She supposed she could mingle around the room and find him. Albert couldn't be too far, arfter all the room wasnt that big.

RP Response: Freya stuffed the last of the yellow pepper dipped in ranch into her mouth and then walked through the now open doors. The extravagant decorations dazzled her and invigorated her imagination. Whoever had invited everyone must be at the very top of the ladder, elite of elites. Freya smoothed her dress carefully, the chiffon was delicate and she didn’t want it to rip accidentally. The seats in the parlor looked inviting and so she decided to sit down and watch the others as they trickled in.

Higher or Lower?: Higher than the host's RP Response: Zazie was dressed for business, because what else did you wear to one of these things? Most of the other outfits she saw looked nice at least, but she wasn't sure how comfy they were, given that she never really dressed up like this. She was busy contemplating what food and drink combination to try next when the host made their appearance, or at least their voice did. Attention seemed to be focused on the giant doors that opened, and as she had no issues with investigating further, she followed the rest of the attendees for the time. Though it wasn't quite apparent what they were doing beyond that, the host still wasn't here? Curious.

Higher or Lower?: Higher RP Response:Alon grinned at everyone who was gathering, his eyes glittering curiously as he looked around. There were a LOT of good lookin' folks around, and he was enjoying the eye candy. For once, he was dressed up in clothing that covered most of him, since it was appropriate for the event he'd been invited to. Heck, it was even a nice suit he was wearing.
Then the door opened and the voice spoke. He gave a soft 'ooooh' and his grin got wider. This was exciting indeed! He headed straight for the door, curious as to what their host was like.

Higher or Lower?: Lower RP Response: Anaiise felt a little out of place amidst the grandeur of the mansion; she felt very small by comparison. Still, such a formal invitation had prompted her to dress accordingly, an appropriately floral gown that stopped just below her ankles. Her hair was in a lovely style compared to her usual simple ponytail and, given the season, she wore a mask for the dress and occasion (for once wearing contacts instead of her glasses.) The snacks were delicious and she took a moment to settle in with a couple of them along with a glass of champagne. Taking in the other invitees, she felt a little apprehensive when she recognized none of them; she was so used to being familiar with everyone that this was off putting. The sudden opening of the doors startled her, the neko stepping back a bit only to end up bumping back into a solid figure. "Ah! Oh, I'm so sorry!" She turned to look at the person she had bumped into and blinked s few times. "Excuse me...but would you happen to be the owner of the coffee house in Rosebud?" Anaiise felt a bit relieved to have found a semi-familiar face, smiling up at the Grimm. "I didn't think that I'd see anyone else from home at a place like this." There was the forever first present soft country drawl to her voice.

Higher or Lower?: Higher RP Response: Blitz whistled low as they looked about the place. "Fancy." Well, not like that was very surprising. The letter was pretty ornate. It wasn't like they weren't used to these junctions either. The grimm's parents were always one to take him to events like this. Nonetheless, "Eti, we should have a house like this." he breathed. Maybe his parents would help pay for it...The idea excited him, enthralled him. To have a microphone system to where he didn't have to leave his bed and could talk to Eti whenever he wanted. That, was bliss.

RP Response:
Etienne didn't mind this part of the season. It wasn't scary. It was safe. Sure, the invitation was sketchy and had him hesitate, but with so many people gathered in one place, it didn't feel dangerous or scary.
At least... he thought so. But who in the world used an intercom at an event? Was it the voice's event or were they simply like... the coordinator? Were they still going to wait for the host?
Questions running through his head were hard to figure out answers to. Especially with Blitz next to him, spouting absolute nonsense. The naiad gave the grimm a deadpanned look. "You don't work. My income is just enough for my own day-to-day needs. How do you expect to afford a place like this?" he snorted before his eyes narrowed further. This was Blitz that was talking... which meant... He scowled, very tempted to elbow him. "If you're talking about your parent's money again, I swear I'm going to-" he cut off, biting his own tongue. No, he wasn't going to make threats. He was going to be the adult in this relationship. Deities, why was he with this manchild? Well, he knew why, but nearly every time Blitz opened his mouth, it did make him question his poor decision. Maybe age was getting to him. Sure, he wasn't old but that had to be the explanation. Or love was making him dumb. "Listen to me, Blitz. I am not going to rely on your parents' money," he added.

 Higher or Lower?: I think my roll will be higher than the hosts! RP Response:December Matthews was giggling profusely as she click-clacked across the marble floors of the fancy old mansion in her fancy-a** shoes. Man, this party was so pretentious! The booming clock, the fancy themed foods, the creepy voice, it was bougie sure, but the grimm loved it! Haunted Hallows was easily the best holiday ever, if you asked her. The pale periwinkle young woman made a bee-line for the snack table, the black silk of her wispy dress flowing around her ankles. She loved her costume. She couldn't wait until someone asked what she was dressed as, she thought as she straightened the sash that draped over her from shoulder to hip. In bold black letters, it read "My Apologies." Her blue eyes flicked over the spread as she piled up her tiny plate, shoving the occasional h'orderve between her painted lips. With a full mouth, she grinned, her tail wagging happily behind her as the doors opened ominously. She swallowed loudly, "Man, this is so cool!"

Higher or Lower?: lower RP Response:
A large yawn escaped the petite Viper, arms stretching up and over his head, tail curving upward as well as his muscles extended before relaxing again. Hands smoothed down his strapless, form fitting black dress that was both risque and littered with peek slits here and there. A choker hugged around his neck, a skull dangling to rest below his adams apple, and thigh high boots adorned his long legs. He was feeling good, and looking good, more than excited to see what this mystery invitation was all about. As a fan of all things that could pose mischievous, and trouble inducing, he helped himself to wandering around to snoop.
He would pull out books in bookcases to peer behind them, pick up vases and surely other expensive items to inspect without concern or regard for manners.
The sounds were an amusing touch, a smirk gracing his rarely unveiled pretty face, as doll eyes flickered to see the double doors open. Sauntering on through, a soft hum came from him as he considered the two options presented. Rooms, rooms, and more rooms. Hmm~ which way to take?

Fenris had made it a point to cram as many of the crackers-goat cheese-mango offerings in his mouth as he could, so when no one other than the mayor of Rosebud bumped into him and recognized him, the poor guynearly spat out a mouthful of cracker. "Mayor! Man, those invitations were far-reaching though, weren't they? Look at all these..." He wanted to say 'hoity-toities'. But that would be rude. "...people."

Higher or Lower?: My roll is higher!
RP Response:
Sundara strode into the event, extravagantly decorated and more than ready to mingle with the rest of the guests. Being invited to a party like this was exciting and gave her an excuse to bust out all the stops. Fine make-up delicately applied, hair teased into an elegant waterfall, an array of accessories draped about their figure. All of it resulting in an over the top display of feminine allure and mystery.
Seeing as the host of the event was such a mystery, Dara had seen fit to wear a mask to the ball as well. Not that it was likely that anyone would recognize her anyway, since her boy wasn't going. Ah well, at least this was an event fit to see and be seen at. Dara had arrived a smidgen late, but with ample time to collect her fair share of canapes and champagne before draping herself on a couch right before they were ushered into the next room.
It was all as over the top and spooky as she'd been hoping for. Delighted, Dara moved right along into the next room to have a look around there as well.
