This week on Haunt Weekly, we're taking a look at the (now expanding) public domain and what in there might be of good use for haunted houses.
Due to a copyright extension, no new works entered into the public domain from 1999-2019. However, now things are lapsing every year including early versions of Winnie the Pooh, Mickey Mouse and the rest of the Sherlock Holmes stories.
So what's in the public domain that may be good for haunters to use? It turns out a lot. There's even some weird quirks that caused much newer works to lapse way before their time.
