Come into my Parlour

The wall box, “Come Into My Parlor”, references a childhood poem that begins with the phrase -"Come Into My Parlour" "Come into my parlor, said the spider to the fly.” The inference being that the invitation is an enticement that may well be as dangerous as it is beguiling. The inclusion of the aged photographs overlaid with a trapped figure further illustrate the concept.
