I'd settle for the smallest little fucking place and you can't even get that in this economy. Fucks sake.

Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.
No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

Apparently a modest home, usable kitchen, and a yard for the dog is very, very fancy these days.
Could I have all that with a cantankerous ape librarian instead?
Ook?
Hmm, I’d settle for just the first two, but also, do cantankerous ghost librarians even exist on the west coast? I feel like those would be few and far between if they do.
It's an extra premium for import
Joking aside and wild tangent, but it's insane how much you guys(assuming you're in the US) pay for antique (European) furniture. I bought myself a wardrobe cupboard for 100 Euros. Probably from the 17th century. Don't sell, because they're bulky, not fashionable, dark wood, and take up a lot of space. Thing has lasted a few hundred years, will last a few hundred more. Easier to dissassemble than ikea crap too.
Similar cupboards cost thousands in the US. Company buys them up over here, advertising, transport, fumigation, customs, transport, import documents, etc. etc.
Something that's a status symbol in some rich guys house, can be found in many a barn over here.
I would enjoy a hidden door to a secret room, but not sure I would enjoy a house with so much more space than I need that I feel I can dedicate an entire room to be secret...
