Grimly!!!!! Here you will find a ride that takes you literally into a movie. This is a scary movie and I am not going to tell you any more. You need to go for the experience.

 Keep your hands in the traveling cart. Do not stand up - it is a long fall! This region has other rides if you live through this one go back and take a tour. I noticed there is a hunt going on as I entered a nearby haunted house after I survived the rides.

 Across the way is another ride called The Screaming Goat . Do it over and over again  with a different experience each time for a choice of 9. And don’t miss Borley Haunted Mansion . The entrance is down the road. And .. there is more! Keep walking . Bye. I got a notice after I left that there is another new ride there now too. I have not had a chance to check it out but I am sure it fits the name.

Nance Clowes has been so busy with Second Life events. However she has set up her wonderful Haunted Mansion tour. While you wait for the door to open, notice the tombstone. Read the signs too. Be careful when you enter, don’t click by accident, you might find yourself outside again. The voice of experience!

 This all takes a while so plan your time. It is a cool ride. I take it every year.

 Many ghosts inhabit this retirement home , all invited by Nance to move in. Some love it , though I think there are a few reluctant that  I found. Inhabitants  have their entertainment inside and out  and good meals. The sights and sounds in the house add to the experience. I recommend taking a friend on this ride. There is so much to see and discuss and scream at. The ghosts may invite you to stay as you pass through. That is up to you. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/GEL%20Community%2038/67/42/24

As you visit Halloween event places there is a sign at each and you can get a list of many other places to visit so click .

It was nice to get an invitation from Prof. Grey of the Arcadia Library to come visit his house. I headed over only to find myself at a very scary place! It looks like he has opened a hangout for skeletons, and a few other questionable creatures. The pirate ship had a “skeleton”  skeleton crew on board.

To reach the house itself I had to walk along through an interactive graveyard and I almost did not make it ! One open grave was waiting for me! There was a group of not very friendly skeleton pirates playing cards outside the house and a very unfriendly ghoul lurking inn an open vault... Finally  I did get to the stairs to the door and entered a house hosting more skeletons .Watch every step!!!!

In the dining room I sat down at the table for a few minutes to collect myself and see what was on the menu of the day... some of the choices which was floating above the table. I walked into the kitchen which was not in much better shape and decided not to stay there too long for fear of being hit by a flying frying pan, or worse yet , ending up in it! 

As I progressed through the house opening doors , each room presented more and more horrors. The nursery was most disconcerting.

On the upper floor I found a secret. This house is part of the Hunt  and the hint is on the dock, don’t miss it. There is much to see here so make a stop.

Looking for real bargains for decorating? If you visit the Haunted House at Creations Park you will be able to pick up some wonderful Halloween items each for less than 95L and every cent goes to the Parkinson’s Research.

The entire house is filled with spooky scary items you will love! One room has  with portraits and paintings that will only add to your spooky decor. There are freebies hidden among the sale items.. Have fun touching everything you see.

Outside the house there is an array of more fun decor for sale at a little higher price for some. I could not resist the little pumpkin globes and did get several at a price of only 50L each and some are great for Thanksgiving too! There is also a pumpkin hunt in the stores and this location is also in the Hunt.. get the hint. I almost forgot to get my prize!! 

When you arrive follow the signs to the Halloween Emporium..

“Welcome to Dark Dharma Haunted Manor, they've been waiting... Built in the 1880's, this haunted Victorian manor is an imposing structure, never mind the broken windows and wandering souls. It might even be charming, if it wasn't for what happened. What happened to the last occupants? Come visit, if you dare!”

The house is frightening from the time the maid opens the door. I passed through the sitting room into the dining room where ghouls are still eating amid the spider webs enveloping them and the dinner. The kitchen was most frightening with the cook holding a bloody carving knife while arms begged for help from the oven. I made my way through the doorway into a parlor made ready for games with wispy spirits. Perhaps later. The next room was filled with books floating about through the air. I passed on to climb the stairway with a wall that was filled with family pictures, one more frightful than the other. I believe I recognized some of this family. Entering the room to the left I encountered some of the family spirits sitting around a table having tea. I will leave the description of the powder room to your discovery. 

 

Every door leads to a new discovery, so knock on all of them. In the attic I made a mistake and ended up in some kind of electricution table and so. I never found the reasons for the missing occupants. It is up to you to go find out. Good luck!  Now I remember ... I was here before!! Maybe I was part of the family!!

My next visit was to a place that promised four scary venues, NC's Halloween 9th year HAUNTED Mansion RIDES, ZOMBIES and Asylum. A guided ride sounded good so I headed for the Haunted Mansion . The wait at the station for the ride was 10 minutes so I entered the grounds and roamed around a bit.  The Haunted House itself is also a wait while the spirits awaken. 

 

Once inside there is ghostly ride with a voice guided story to chill you. Best to bring a friend to share it with but I faced it alone and survived. Mouse look works well for this and the sounds are scary too. There is a wonderful spirit party with food and dance and music taking place in the dining room.Listen to the story for thrills and warnings. I was wondering if the heart beat was mine or.... There is more to enjoy! I smashed some pumpkins on the way out . not a good idea!!! And Lucien Asylum is 6 stories so be prepared for more visits!!! I had to skip the zombie battle area and the Abandoned Thrill ride. It is a good thing it is a while until Halloween . I will be going back to all these marvelous places.
