Duck created the lore behind Fairbrook Manor, based on a real Long Beach resident named Victoria Fairbrook. For the sake of the haunted house, the story goes that James Fairbrook and his two children drowned in the lake behind the mansion, leaving Victoria in a delusional craze, luring local children into her home. Entry to the mansion is free, but visitors are encouraged to bring canned goods, toiletries or a $5 cash donation to benefit the <a href=\"https:\/\/lbrm.org\/?form=FUNQVZVUUEP&amp;utm_source=google_paid&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=WGAP&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=21332631553&amp;gbraid=0AAAAA9xNyt9p4eJct-zPbZOuaclyI6au4&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjw_9bWBhBGEiwAomyTItllmDLdELdeCu0nc3Aj4OgrGtsUj_fzu5BI24Y1EwQy-UE5Pxa0tBoCOdUQAvD_BwE\">Long Beach Rescue Mission<\/a>.
