The field/heath/farm represents the outer world or industry filled with social structures and norms that she feels confined to — or “the public” perception. The haunted house of drag represents an inner world or community that is a safe place to be yourself or discover, explore, experiment. 🕺🏾🪩🧟♀️🎃🌈
Sabrina is thrust out of the dreamy fun house (🎶House Tour🎶) back into the “real world” only to find herself dressed to conform again. From my lens this is a metaphor for feeling constrained by comphet, the patriarchy, and/or other social norms in the outer world.
If we link this video back to the song “House Tour” you might see that this metaphor is layered and about more than just foreplay… but about inviting the muse (whether A Man or the audience) to step into her inner world, see her perspective on life, or even explore the fun house together.
Alt option- if we dig into the Patriarchy of it all, Sab could be embodying “Barbie”—“my house is on pretty girl Ave, my house was especially built for you, SOME SAY it’s a place where dreams come true.” could be a commentary on how the house she’s built is not real but a response to the patriarchy

barbie book at the bottom prob accidental but there was an Opry book on the top shelf close to the TSS book, and today was the anniversary of taylor’s first opry performance (that basically launched her career) chappell by barbie too!
Her hair was very Barbie for the release party
and all the emphasis on barbie's dream house where she is having a continual sleepover where kens arent allowed vs the mojo dojo casa dream house the patriarchy infiltrates!
Exactlyyyyyy what I’m getting at!!
the weather beaten farm house containing a rainbow wonderland also reminds me of dorothys house!!
