In preparation for the upcoming spooky season, the folks at the Seanchai Library are going to try a Real Life meets Virtual Worlds experiment.

This Friday night, September 23rd, one of their professional storytellers, Mr. Shandon Loring, will be presenting several selections from me, Edgar Allan Poe – and the intriguing part is he will actually be presenting from a real 1800’s graveyard, sitting amongst the gravestones with a RL audience, using portable and wireless technology.

Seanchai Library has branches in Second Life, Kitely, and Inworldz (and maybe a few other secret locations!). Normally our presentations take place with full immersion at the virtual world they are presented in.
i.e. The storyteller is inworld at the presentation and able to fully interact with the audience. However, since this one is just in the experimental phase the presentation will take place in Second Life.

You are most welcome to join us at the Second Life branch of the Seanchai Library of course.
(Premium Seating for Kitely Guests!)

AND.. so as not to leave our Kitely friends & family out of the fun entirely, the audio of the presentation will also be streamed live to OCTOBERWORLD in Kitely.

So if you’d like to be part of the experiment, and see what kinda spooks and haunts may happen to Shandon, we’d love for you to join us either in Second Life, or pop in to the graveyard on OCTOBERWORLD in Kitely.

We’d also love to hear your feedback on this idea… Do you think it stinks? Do you think it might be fun? Would you like to see more fully live and immersive presentations in Kitely?

So come help us kick off the Spooky Season!! October is nearly here!!!

If you have any questions about this experiment please email them to Shandon at:
