I Love Halloween!

I Love Halloween!

 

I like to watch all the spooky movies, my all-time favorite being The Changeling with George C. Scott.  I love carving pumpkins, and I am going to try to talk my sick hubby into doing this tonight but he tends to be a bit of a spoil-sport when he's full of snot. And I am SO excited for the live Ghost Hunters marathon episode on Friday!

 

Last weekend we joined hubby's friend Nick and Nick's LTGF Kate to a Halloween haunted-house thing called "Scream Town."  I learned that I don't do any better with these now than I did as a child.  Even though it was pretty hokey I still had my hubby's hand in a vice grip and I even peed myself a little.  I'm sure Nick and Kate think I'm lame now, but I guess having creepy costumed people jumping out of the dark isn't for everyone.   

 

There were four features but I begged out of the third because it was just too much for me even watching from afar this chainsaw-wielding maniac chasing each group out of the exit.  Really I was done after the second one (where I peed), but got talked into going through the fourth attraction that was, for me, the worst of them.  Partially because my nerves were shot and I had a wet spot in my undies, but mostly because of the strobe lights and the narrow, 8-foot high, day-glo orange hazard fence maze full of horrible clowns that I had to squeeze past.  One of them wouldn't leave me alone even after I pushed his rubber nose in (I was warned earlier, "No touching ma'am").  Then I started to get dizzy and nauseated from the lights so Hubby escorted me out of the emergency exit with mister clingy-clown right on his heels.  Good times...

 

I always thought it would be the coolest thing ever to go ghost hunting with all the cameras and gadgets, but now after this weekend...  Although, real ghosts are less likely to wield chainsaws or wear rubber masks, so I still really want to try it! I'll just wear a leak guard.
