The home of Josephine Anwhistle is featured in The Wide Window, the third novel of the A Series of Unfortunate Events series by Lemony Snicket. The structure is built off the edge of a cliff, being held up by a series of stilts and struts. The main feature of the house is the wide window, the scene of a faked suicide, which provides a view of Lake Lachrymose. Although the building has electricity, gas, central heating and a telephone line, none of these are used due to Josephine's many phobias.
The house was later blown right off the cliff during Hurricane Herman.
It also mentions in The Unauthorized Autobiography that the second half of a recorded conversation between Mr. Poe and his sister Eleanora at the Anxious Clown Restaurant is hidden in Ivan Lachrymose: Lake Explorer, under someone's bed. In The Wide Window, when the Baudelaire orphans are looking for an atlas under a bed in Aunt Josephine's house, one of the books under there is Ivan Lachrymose: Lake Explorer. This suggests that the tape is indeed hidden here.
