Halloween Events

I'm excited with this new idea I had for a film. It revolved around the popular silent film style that has shown up around the globe. (Like Amanda's video that recently went viral following her death. I don't know if that link will always work, but you can youtube search "Amanda Todd Video" and probably find it.) Using flash cards/paper etc. to tell a story. However I plan on combining this with a narrative, for a more enhanced experience. I hope it goes well. Also, It's a love story. :)

For the moment however I thought I would mention a bit about what I do in my personal life. I love haunted houses. I recently had the opportunity this month to see a few haunted attractions, and enjoyed basically all of them. The four I've seen this month include:

• Frightmares (Lagoon Amusement Park)
• The Haunted Village (This is the Place, Heritage Park)
• Nightmare on 13th (I actually went here twice.)
• The Haunted Forest 

Frightmares was only funny because we had an interesting situation in which some of us had dates and some of us didn't. However we weren't half boy half girl. The one guy that commented that it looked like we all had dates, didn't have a date. Unless he was insinuating that he was his friend Nick's date... which is only entirely awkward. The reason being because he was married to a woman, and Nick is straight. He seemed to have a little fit when he didn't get to go through the haunted house with his friend Nick, and Nick went through with one of the ladies present instead.

The Haunted Village was fun, and we got quite a group to go. I think the funnest part about that was probably seeing my friend Ashley get scared out of her mind. She's young, about 13 years old. 

Nightmare on 13th was voted Best-In-Utah last year I believe? Their animatronics are pretty good. I was startled a few times. The date I brought with me was terrified of clowns, so she got scared pretty good. Also, if you keep the wristband they give you, you get to come back for one forth the cost on their last 3 days of operation.

The Haunted Forest however was by far the best. It was longer, more clever in almost every way, and way more unexpected. Hands down the best one I went to this season. 

I also was invited to about 5 different Halloween parties, my favorite was a Once Upon A Murder Mystery Party, Hosted by my friend Alli. We all dress up as certain people, and are given clues. Throughout the night we talked with people learning about stories and motives. As the night progresses Snow White is found dead! And we try to find out who is the murderer. It was a lot of fun.
