Tonight was the first Halloween meeting...ideals needed?

[redhen]

I wish i could go see your haunted maze, Spook! It sounds awesome!!!
*except the spider part... *

 

[Spookwriter]

Spook does not like being touched by other people.

Spiderwebs are almost better, even.

But Ferrerr is so right, if you work a haunted house there
is a really good chance you'll get punched, mauled or something.
Teenagers are the WORST.

I'm the undertaker.

Last year one older lady simply insisted on my dancing with her.
A waltz among the weathered headstones.

She hummed time as I whispered in her ear...

You're mine now, you know.
I'll never let you go.

So young you are, to be with me tonight.

So full of life, yet you dance in the arms of death tonight.

Stay...stay with me tonight, as the bells toll.


That was really quite interesting, dancing with her. She hummed
and I uttered complete nonsense. She was in a group of other ladies,
who stood and watched, took pictures. Quite a few others watched
also.

There was a moon that night, it wasn't quite dark were we were dancing,
almost to the edge of of the corn. Misty, fog machine was laying it low on
the ground, just about as high as the headstones.

We danced, and I was going for the next thrill past me...it was the narrowing
tunnel, with it's own thick fog...small strobe light.

I let her slip from my arms, as I dissappeared backwards into the tunnel, calling
to her...

"Come to me my darling...it is our time forever."

"Do not be afraid, my love."

"Follow me into the darkness...we will dance for all eternity."


But the dance only happened the one time. No ideal who the lady
was. Did she perhaps know me? No ideal.

Someone posted my picture on their local facebook, along with a few
other monsters...attendance that weekend was beyond belief. We
were supposed to quit at 11:00, but it just wouldn't quit. We ran to
a little after midnight a few times.

A true, and sad part of the story that we've been hit a few times. Props
destroyed, corn broke. Hard to leave some props out. Take an hour after
closing to gather the better props, take them back to the barn at night.

Building the horse drawn hearse this year, and I know better than to leave
it out. But I also know it will be a pain to bring home every night.

I hope you'll take pictures for those of us who can't come.

 

[Spookwriter]

Just close your eyes and dream, my sweet Em.

The Spook is there, always...


Em's Special Spook


**Once again, we're also talking of doing another local calendar.
Halloween Haunting would be there for sure. Along with all our other
escapades.

that sounds good but instead of just showing the way out it also shows a bunch of creepy clowns surrounding you on all sides and the light flashes for just a second and it flashes a couple of times a few moments apart and each time it flashes the clowns have moved

i was also thinking, mabye if there was a kid who would volunteer he/she could be huddled up in the corner crying when people come to see whats wrong he/she could be muttering how something wanted to change him/her and he/she didnt want to be changed he/she would then slowly turn starting out crying then crying with a hint of laughter then crying with even more laughter and so on until there laughing hysterically and finishes turning relieving the face of a clown.

i scare myself sometimes

does one of the maze paths lead to the creek?

do you know anyone that can play a banjo?

there is a reason for bumper stickers that say : Run Faster I Hear a Banjo

I've been working at the nearby park for probably around 10 years or more.

Been hit,kicked,slaped, tripped, bit you name it.... Even got hit straight in the face with a blown up basketball once by an ADULT that worked there even. When I pulled my mask off infront of her I think I scared her more because my face was all bloodied because of a broken nose. But the show must go on

I think I'm going to save up and one year take a Fall vacation just to have a heart attack in your Haunted House, Spook.

It sounds awesome.

A FYI for y'all. This is what our volunteer Fire Dept dealt with just today (oops, I guess yesterday since it's now after midnight).

This occurred less than a mile from my home.
