fast-paced and enjoyable trip into a realm that, for a brief moment, made you feel as if you had actually stepped into another place entirely. \u00a0 The props and atmosphere of the <a title=\"IMDB page for Crimson Peake\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2554274\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Crimson Peake<\/em><\/a> exhibit was so complete that as the curtain fell shut behind you, sounds of the hall floor were muffled and the small group I stood with fell silent as they simply absorbed their new environment.<\/p>\n<p>While it was obvious this was not some happy-go-lucky film, there was nothing disgusting or jarring about the exhibit&#8230; instead it was full of character, delight and intrigue, pulling you into another world and enticing its visitors to stay a while in this oasis from a bustling hall floor. \u00a0When some people behind them were done looking around and wanted to leave, the people by the exit were disappointed, sighing and bemoaning the fact it was time to step away from all the wonderful eye-candy, and return to reality.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_305\" style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
