Q: Creepiest villain headquarters ever?
A: Check out this old-world-style skyscraper from Russia -- twelve stories high and constructed from wood.
"There is not elevator," says English Russia in its perfectest English, "and you can reach the top of the building climbing by a carved wooden stairs."
The perfect refuge for the discerning nineteenth century mad scientist Carpathian in your life, the structure is the controversial centerpiece of the town of Arkhangelsk (or "Archangel"), jewel of medieval Russian naval commerce.
If you don't think it looks creepy enough in the daylight, check back on a foggy night...
