Christmas Village Displays Come to Second Life: Annie's Costumes Creates a Virtual Christmas Village Where Second Life Avatars Can Explore Santa

DANIA BEACH, Fla. (Business Wire EON) December 12, 2007 -- When first arriving to the virtual Christmas village, avatars are greeted with snowflakes falling overhead. Santa's elves move about the village, doing some last minute Christmas decorating. An ice covered pond with a Christmas tree in the middle has free ice skates for ice skating. Santa's home sits in between two workshops where Second Life avatars can drop in for some milk and cookies before shopping for Christmas trees and decorations. At the center of this Winter Wonderland is the holiday Second Life clothing line that features a life-like Santa suit, a sexy Mrs. Claus, and Male and Female Elf costumes.

"After the success of our virtual haunted house and Halloween costume line, we wanted to take it up a notch for Christmas by creating virtual Christmas village displays that not only showcases our new holiday clothing line but also creates a Winter Wonderland experience for Second Life avatars," states Shari McConahay, Marketing Director for Annie's Costumes. "Ten Golden Rules and LeftBank Studios were instrumental in helping us expand our Second Life Store for Christmas. Additionally, we were able to partner with ChristmasTreeforMe.com so we could offer virtual Christmas trees for avatars looking for holiday decorating ideas."
