Anybody going to any haunted houses this year? I went to a local one recently: NETHERWORLDThere were three houses to go through. CURSED was a traditional haunted house, the storyline being that some magus unleashed a heck-load of demons to terrorize the earth. It wqas effective, in that they used sound to disorient you will going through, and there were quite spots between scares so it didn't just hit you as being all the same kind of scares (BOO-type jump scares). I liked the mirror maze probably the best. The second house was based around EC Comics-type banned 50's comic book, and it used 3-D glow in the dark painting to create scenarios as divers as an alien autopsy to swirling tunnels that disorient the viewer. There was an amazing effect in a spinning tunnel where these 3-D dots are spinning in front of your face, and you feel like some force is pushing you towards the ground. THe final was a freak house that has some interesting physical chanllegens (like being force to crawl through elements to going through a dark maze). Didn't care for the fetid air that was pumped in for one bit, and there was a lame truck-attack scare, but it was fun too.

I suppose I am a Haunted House wuss. I wasn't a huge fan per say but they could be fun. Now that my heart is being a snot I prolly shouldn't be going to any seriously scary ones. And I am 36 Dante, and I am trying to work out a costume. So if it's wrong, I'm right there with ya. However being a former Wiccan the day feels a wee bit different.
