Hubris
This is the fourth image in my Halloween mini-series. (this was taken in the lobby of Disneysea's Tower of Terror).
On the account of Lord Henry Mystic, the only accomplice of Mr. Hightower that we were able to get ahold of; He was a man who simply could not outrun his brash ambitions. He allowed the public to see his antiquities for just a day or two before locking them away somewhere in the hotel where they will never be seen again. He does not confirm nor deny the rumors of Mr. Hightower's theft, and expresses concern over the idol that was found in the elevator and encourages the city to shut the place down until the mystery can be solved.
As the New York Preservation Society continues to attempt to buyout the long abandoned archival hotel, we took it upon ourselves to send one of our own out to examine the property. The garden and the lobby are the only spots we had legal access to at the time. At our request, they temporarily restored power to the lobby for our column shot, on condition we stay away from the shaft at the end of the room.
Henry Mystic's words may have been entirely true, and worse. The room was still plenty dark that evening, and it's ornate beauty was misleading. Upon further inspection around the room, multiple murals in the room depicted him stealing artifacts from the locals of various regions. It's almost as if he was bragging that he was a criminal, surely he didn't line Governor Roosevelt's pockets how did this all go over our heads?
The eeriness didn't end. The power struggled to stay on, the concierge was covered in cobwebs and the plants (not just this one, all of them) were dying and not tended to. Which is odd considering the city put stanchions everywhere preparing for the upcoming buyout (daily tours are expected to come out of this deal). We asked if we could have access to the study, but management refused, claiming they sealed the idol (known only as Shiriki Utundu) in there until further investigation. You ask me these men are fools and similar in regard to Hightower. Something is definitely going on in this hotel and no amount of intuition will convince them otherwise. Hightower is still remembered by most as a villain who was in over his head, all the things he thought he could get away with, his hubris was his undoing.
I hate Disney.
