Major fail for fortnite player who takes creativity too far

At the end of 2018, Fortnite devs showed off a new initiative that allows players creations to be featured on a small area of the official island map called The Block. This area is rotated regularly to shows off fan creativity. 

On April 2, a mansion showed up on the block. 

The Mysterious Mansion was the creation of Fortnite player FuryLeaks, and it provided players with an abandoned and overgrown house to explore.

Players became concerned when it was discovered that the Mysterious Mansion appeared to depict a suicide scene in one of the rooms. In FuryLeak’s tour of the map, the creator walks through the spooky mansion only to arrive at a room where a character hangs from the ceiling, with a chair tipped off to the side. It appears to depict a suicide scene. 

And... So the mysterious mansion was replaced with an older submission, Tropical Treetops.

The Block area is no longer accessible as a result if the mansion, Polygon decided to use a map code to see the area in Creative Mode, confirming the chair and rope scene.

FuryLeaks, says it’s all a misunderstanding — the Fortnite fan told Polygon that, despite his showcase video where a character hangs from the ceiling, the house was supposed to depict the aftermath of an earthquake that destroyed the interior.

“The chair was supposed to hang on the rope, but it fell down,” FuryLeaks said. “I made a joke on a little cinematic with someone hanging their self... but... yeah. Actually it wasn’t supposed to look like that."
