kjm161 Posted July 5, 2020 The Haunted House 10273, is an great new set. I love the drop tower feature, which is reminiscent of Disney’s Tower of Terror. While I appreciate all of the references to previous Adventurers sets I did not like look of the interior of the Haunted House. The interior play value seemed small and the colours disjointed so I decided to MOD my own version. I added to the front to include a larger front lounge area with the set’s wonderful organ and add an upper level room/study for Baron von Barron. I eliminated some of the many windows on the back of the tower. I moved the cemetery to the back and added some extra details. There are now working elevator doors and a larger fireplace that is complete around when opened. A hinge mechanism is used to include the fireplace feature and still let the house close easily like a dollhouse. I was inspired by Disney’s Society of Adventurers and Explorers and how the Lego Haunted House and the Adventurers sets contain some of the same themes. I have tried to add details from all of these. I have tried to get the feel of Hotel Hightower in Tokyo’s DisneySea and Mystic Manor in Disney Hong Kong and have added easter eggs from the alteration of the Tower of Terror to the new Guardians of the Galaxy ride in Disneyland.
