SPOOK ALLEY

We decided to do our spook alley again this year. We had a fun time doing it and I thought we had a lot of great ideas for it...
This is the entrance to the spook alley. The haunted forest!












This is a picture of the "Mad Labratory". I made up a bunch of specimin jars to display everywhere. That was fun, but it got a little gross at times as I scrounged around in my kitchen for interesting mixtures and concoctions.




 

This is the lab when it was lit up with lights. We had some cool effects that are hard to capture on camera












Starring Jamie Kite as "The Mad Scientist"

Kaitlyn Hayes as "The Hunchback Assistant"
(Libby was not part of the spook alley, but just dropped by for moral support ;-)




Rylee as "The Zombie"





This is our bloody Mary mirror. My sister stood behind and when people walked by, she would flick on a light under her face and scream and you could see her through the mirror
This is our skeleton in the coffin. He was a last minute addition, but I thought he turned out great


These are our zombies playing poker. We had Rylee dressed up as one and sitting at the table with them, so when people walked past, she would grab them. This wasn't the best place for her to be, though because she got a lot of haggling from kids. Some little girls decided to beat up on the "zombie" as they walked past and then there was a group of boys (we know who you are!) who were harrassing her into telling them who she was. She got so mad, she finally ripped her mask off and went inside.

This was our skeleton room that we used a blacklight in to make it really glow!















The haunted cemetary was the last thing you went through before escaping out the gate. It was fun, but I think we need an age limit because it's hard to do it for the different age groups. The younger kids get too scared and the older kids don't get scared at all. We are thinking of keeping it for ages 12 and under, since they seem the easiest to please. See you next year!!
