The Boars are Having a Wallow...
The results are in for the Boars of Baskerville Mudhole room competition! After a fun week of investigating the whereabouts of my pig Penelope, we came to find out she was only taken by the Boar of Baskerville (Barnibus) because he was lonely after his master passed away and wanted some new friends to celebrate his birthday with him. Over the weekend you were asked to build a new home for Barnibus and his Baskerville family. Below are the results. Winners:

The Mystery of Baskerville Hall
What's lurking behind the shadows? After clearing up the boxes that littered one of the unused hallway yesterday, we discovered an entranceway to another portion of the hotel. We could clearly hear the call of a raven, and the swishing of trees in the wind. Emerging from the hall, we came upon an abandoned garden. There was nothing in the garden to indicate life, except for the strong scent of mint tea brewing somewhere in the vicinity. Gathering up our courage, we entered the mansion. A tall man in black and grey greeted us at the door and offered us some tea. However, it seemed that they were quite hesitant to answer our questions about the Comment & Read More... |

The Tuesday Ten
Apparently, their hearts didn't go on... and on... and on... True love in Hollywood? Pshaw! Stars have been known to love 'em and leave 'em as quickly as last year's trends. Whether you're a star actress or a wannabe actor, love in Tinseltown is as rare and mythical as a winged horse — and even that, you can get with some nifty CGI. But then again, nobody expected power couple Sam Mendes, Academy Award-winning director of American Beauty, and Kate Winslet, Academy Award-winning actress, to split up so suddenly over the weekend. Seems like that much star quality in one household isn't all that conducive to a marriage. The Titanic star and Revolutionary Road director both said (through their publicist, natch) that the split was amicable (read: they're still friends) and that they're both still going to continue ...

Magical Mystery Beans
It appears that not all fairytales are completely made of fiction. In fact, I saw a witch just the other day. No, it wasn't Mother's Day. That's not funny OR clever. Anyway, the witch story is for another day as we have something else far more exciting in store... Getting rich quick is always a challenge, despite the enormous amount of opportunity. Our latest fairytale may lead you to try a few obscure techniques, if you take the story in its literal form, but you'll find more success with the new Rare. The Beanstalk is available direct from the Catalogue, so you cut out the bean selling middle man, for a great price of just 25 Credits. It's a great price as we've thrown in a free Badge, so you can show off your purchase to all your magic bean trading friends. They'll be feeling more... By on 15th March 2010 12:52pm

Feral Furni
Even furni can go over to the dark side... When we discovered the Boar of Baskerville in one of the unused wings of Habbo Hotel, we did a bit of snooping on our own. With Kitty and a flashlight by our side, we ventured into the darkened corridors, where boxes loomed over our heads, draped with cobwebs and old sheets. With a bang, DoeLee knocked into one of the stacks and sent the contents scattering across the floor. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be Habboween furni pieces, so we decided to dust them, polish them, and put them back on display. You find our selection of stately, spooky pieces in the Habboween section of the Catalogue for a limited time only. Just be careful with ... By on 15th March 2010 08:57am

The Boar of Baskerville
Have you heard the rumours? They say that every year, on the spring equinox, a frightening creature appears in the shadows of the hotel hallways. They say that this creature is responsible for the disappearance of several pets every season — one minute, your beloved pet is snoozing in their snuggie, and the next minute, BAM! They're gone. Some say the bots on night patrol have seen this creature, and that it has 8 legs and 4 arms and razor-sharp teeth that can cut through reinforced glass. Whether it's real or just a rumour, the name is always uttered in a frightened whisper: the Boar of Baskerville. So get your sleuthing hats on 'cos we need to get to the bottom of the mystery of the Boar of Baskerville this week before more pets disappear!

Pigging Out
Is your pigsty good enough for the Boar of Baskerville?
