Wacky Castle House

wacky castle house

Originally uploaded by inkblurt.

Last time I visited my folks, on my drive between their place up around Canton, GA, and the Atlanta airport, I ran across this strange castle-like house, tucked in the midst of semi-rural suburbs.
I’m dying to know what the heck this thing is.
It appears to have a moat around it, because in the front there’s a railing that looks like it goes into a pool (from my vantage point outside the gate, it was hard to tell).
Out back, it has a weird little smaller castle house like a pool house, maybe? And some creepy cartoonish character sculptures.
It must not be a very new house, because it has a gigantic TV antenna sprouting from one of the conical roofs. (I forgot the word for those things.)
There are a few more pics in the flickr stream, linked from the picture.
(Edit: See the new info on the house in this post)

    Wacky, yes. Creepy, yes. But the word that comes to my mind is disturbing. What the hell is going on there?

    Now, you are going to have to find out. Or employ another. You can’t throw something like this at us and hand an indefinite question mark off of it.

    Inkblurt is a very cool blog and I love it!

    I have seen the castle house. Isn’t it kinda near Roswell? I forget where, exactly. I’ve only been by it once, when I first moved here.

    Googlemap that thing!

    My hubby is from Roswell and took me to see this place. Our kids LOVE it. It’s cool as a fan!
