Title: This is driving me nuts-The SOMETHING House
Post by: Alasdair5000 on March 15, 2008, 11:30:06 PM

Hi:)

   A little while ago, I read an amazing online story.  Presented as a series of letters it opened with a correspondence between two friends discovering that a third went on a shooting spree, repeating the phrase 'The Door is Open' over and over.  The investigation leads to an incredibly strange house, a livejournal kept by the only person to survive living there and the realisation that something very odd appears to have evolved just next to humanity.

It is quite, quite brilliant.  It's apparently being made into a movie.  It's called The SOMETHING (Sounds like Dionysus or Dionaceas) House and I cannot find it.  Anywhere.

Sound familiar to anyone?

The Dionaea house (http://www.dionaea-house.com/)

It's named after Dionaea Muscipula a.k.a. the venus flytrap.

Which town?  It might not be that great of a reward.

Given that this is Alisdair's thread I'm trying to come up with a clever line incorporating 'Pseudopod' and 'Pseudo Echo.'

Nope, I've got nothin'.
