Very well done! You sure looked and sounded the part. Maybe a good video production of the former residents of Oak Hill would be something people could view before, during or after a tour of the house.
I've heard many people say they'd like to do it again next year, and the organizers seemed to be considering it. It needs a firmer commitment to short, 5 minute presentations as originally planned. Average ran over 8 minutes and 2 1/2 hours for the total tour which, is a little too long for some people to complete. If we don't do it again, I don't know what I'll use this fake mustache for.

I attended the ghost tour and it was quite good. Do you or anyone know if another tour is being planned for next year?
