Moochie’s All Hallows

 

By Gemma Cleanslate

 

October has arrived with all its colorful or dark fun. Orange is the most outstanding color not only for decorations but the sign of Halloween. Pumpkins abound, no matter where one goes it seems. You will find at least one little pumpkin in place.

 

I have started visiting some venues that are Halloween personified. My first stop is to a regular for me every year and that is Moochie’s All Hallows.

"Did you know sometimes it frightens me

when you say my name and I can't see you

will you ever learn to materialize before you speak…"

The greeter says, “Welcome to All Hallows! Please respect the no nudity policy and have fun exploring. There are nooks and crannies to be found throughout, if you are willing to step into the darkness…”

Take the advice. If you bring a sweetie or a friend try the couples walk rezzer and take the step into darkness together. Grab a notecard before you leave that will guide you on your way to some of the sites. Oh, don’t forget to get the postcards from Moochie too!

Follow the various paths and see the sights. Cressida Wretched was serving Corn Dogs that were advertised as sometimes delicious so I skipped that and settled for a large cider given to me my Henrietta Hogwort that seemed a little safer.

There are many nooks to sit and relax just enjoying the shimmering lights in the darkness of the night. Listen to the spooky Halloween tunes like "I’m a Vampire Baby." Don’t miss the Theatrer on the Hill where there are classic horror films of the past showing or the “Campfire Stories' at All Hallows this year. A dedicated little parcel right at the end of the pumpkin patch will play old time radio tales 24/7 from now right through until the end of October”. Try to relax and enjoy (laughing out loud).

Before I forget there are new Healthinfo Island for October you may like to  visit. They are appropriate for the season. Objectophilia is a new one on me but check it out above the site on Dying.

Nearby there is a whole section on Microplastics which I find is scarier than any Halloween  creature! Learn about it!  There is so much more on the Virtual Ability island.. take a walk.

Halloween Town And Moochies

By Gemma Cleanslate

Laura Liberty has opened her Halloween Town until the end of October. This is one of my creepy favorites. Her little town is full of quaint facades of shops and inside there are everything you can think of for decor from pumpkins to skeletons, food,  to fun outfits . It is all so enticing too.
Take a walk through all the rooms of the huge shops and look .

The skeleton area is terrific. The mask offerings are great for the variety that are offered for different personalities. The wonderful Pumpkin contest with a total of 3000L  prizes is there again. Click the display area for the rules. You can use your creative juices to fashion your pumpkins or start with some help. .

I found my friend Tina  who is an assistant to Laura and land manager dancing among the gachas. Why she was wearing her Santa cap? I don’t know but may have been practicing for for her role at the Christmas town.

And , at the bottom of the road is one of the best scary houses in Second Life. It is a good idea to bring along a friend to hang onto as you progress through the house. What you are going to experience is a stroll through popular horror movies etched in your memory . Get ready!!! I have gone through at least four times in the past and still find new experiences .

Have fun! You need time to do it all.. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Townies/120/104/100

After leaving Halloween Town I stopped over at Moochies. Get the notecard and map at the entrance. This was a new place to me and I enjoyed walking among the trees finding little private relaxing areas for friends to sit and relax.......“Among the treacherous trees, the mouldering mist, the rattling ruins and the wretched wailing winds, there are creepy corners and secluded shadows waiting for those who dare to venture into the darkness.  Halloween has arrived...”

 If you use the windlight of the region  you will really feel the shadows.....and more. I suggest using both region and another windlight because the woods and paths are gorgeous with the autumn colors and to find the little corners in the woods to sit and relax with your friends.

If you love fingernails there is a hunt going on for nails. Pick up the notecard with the hints on it to find all the items you are looking for along the route shown on the map.

I stopped for a corndog at the riverside. It is well worth the visit .. follow the firelights.
