    That's Regan's bedpost. In the movie, cushions were wrapped around the bedpost so that she wouldn't hurt herself. That is still the scariest flick.😳

    When you were using the laser Harp, made me remember the slot machines they used to have at the old Las Vegas Hilton when they had the Star Trek Experience. It included special slot machines that had an option to swipe your hand through what was supposedly a laser sensor to start the slot machine spinning.

I visited "Carousel Mall" to experience the carousel again and I found the horses no longer have horsehair tails. Either the horses were replaced, redone, or I am remembering wrong. Do you know anything about it?
