Chapter 3: The Black House

 The next stop on our BDO was The Black House.

Unique on this tour in being neither blue or white, it's the brainchild of a Thai artist called Thawan Duchanee, who died in 2014.

(Despite evidence to the contrary, I actually do research these bits)

Anyway.   Thawan's big idea was to put together a collection of (black) houses and fill them with "interesting" objects. 

There are about 40 (black) buildings around the site. They're in what's known over here as Lanna style, and I must say they're rather splendid.

Certainly more photogenic than Accrington on a rainy Tuesday. 

And much blacker.....

Embracing our inner Goths, we entered the first building.

Readers of a nervous disposition may want to look away now. (Although what are you doing on here in the first place?)

Yes. That's a dead wolf masquerading as a tablecloth 

 

This my friends is a dining 

 chair.

 

Dead wolf not to your taste?  No problem.  We have a dead crocodile. 

Each building brought fresh horror:

 

A pole covered in shark jaws.
(Don't look at me, I only took the picture)

Culminating in this:

I don't honestly know what they are.

I mean, I know what they look like, but they were in an outside lav, so.....

Get yourself a nice cup of horlicks and try to forget what you've seen. 

Then join me tomorrow for Chapter 4....
