Just to save you from a series of rabbit holes, yes, I used available images as a base for some of my drawings. But no, none of the actual places have anything to do with the hunt. Finding the originals will not help you solve the hunt. I'm just not that great an artist, so I used existing images for ideas :-) Thanks. Now I can at least stop looking for that lake...

I've been looking at the haunted house and it is not a real location, or at least, it's not meant to be.
The image was created in October 2017 by Amanda Wells from Melbourne, Australië.
"But couldn't it be the photo that's flipped?" Not if you zoom in on the house number (1321 I believe).
"But couldn't this be the house we're supposed to be looking for?" Doubtfull. Why would FHH complicate the search by flipping the image? Also, while I found this image on several sites, I never came across an address.
So I conclude it's supposed to represent the idea of a haunted house, not a real world location.
Another fun little rabbit hole to go down is the number of ghosts...
I counted the ghosts immediately and then wanted to watch one of my favorite horror movies, ever! I also thought the wishing well looked like it was out of “The Ring”…regardless, this all screams circus or carnival to me, but what’s with the basketball court in the middle?

Finding the originals will not help you solve the hunt. I'm just not that great an artist, so I used existing images for ideas! After reading what I wrote yesterday, I do want to clarify. If you find a picture that looks like one of my numbered images, it is not a clue to the solution. Each image represents something relevant to the hunt, but the source of each image does not.
Good luck!

Ok, so let's dissect this!
IMO, for FHH to post a disclaimer says to me there was something about her first statement that could be taken as misleading when the final solution is known.
So...I personally think it's "none of the actual places have anything to do with the hunt" which may mean that the places are related, like Performance Stage but not the real-world picture she used to depict the performance stage.
Any thoughts?

That could certainly be the takeaway! Anyone found a body of water that looks like Swan Lake yet??

Or maybe the thing to note is "one of my numbered images" meaning the path itself matches a real-world location and is important.

I don’t really understand what we are trying to achieve with this puzzle. Is it a location or answer to a riddle? Solving part 1 as a clue to solve part 2 is vague. I am enjoying the image in the clue with many ideas, but really no direction.

I don’t really understand what we are trying to achieve with this puzzle. Is it a location or answer to a riddle? Solving part 1 as a clue to solve part 2 is vague. I am enjoying the image in the clue with many ideas, but really no direction. There are two parts to the solution & either part can be solved first. Once you've figured out one part, it will help direct the other. I will be posting clues a little later, but wanted to allow time for people to try it without any hints. If you think you have one part, you can submit it to me and I will confirm if it is correct.

I grew up near the Asheboro zoo and remember this. Their polar bear exhibit has always been wonderful and the bear was super playful.

Clue time - and no, this is not an April Fool's joke :-)

Neat puzzle. Only 1 thing shows up on google after solving this and I don't see it being the thing I need. So I'll be patiently waiting for a clue to explain how to use this clue.

When I look at this clue puzzle I feel overwhelmed. But I worked on it yesterday and did solve "something". Now whether it's the intended solution or not I don't know. I ended up with 15 words total, if anyone wants to to corroborate.
