Valleyfair adventures....
Whew, another awesome year as season pass holders again at Valleyfair. My wife and I actually found time and sitters for the children last Friday and had a great time at Valleyscare-a Halloween adult only amusement park. It was like being a kid again 100%. At the end of the night after every scare attraction and ride as we were walking out we were going by an attraction called Carnevil and we asked if they were closed being the park closed at midnight and it was 11:57. "Oh no" they said and they welcomed us in. Last year I went through it alone and it was so so for a little scary. My wife is scared of the dark almost and hates scary stuff. I revel in it. As we headed in right away I noticed it was not the same as the year before. And as we passed through each point where somehow they would scare the you know what out of you, they all continued to follow us through this dark, freaky maze. Finally after them some how separating us and hearing my wife scream like hell we were in a real deal horror flick and being reunited we end up in a hallway so to speak. Well, they shut our only exit and about 20 or so ghoulish creatures cornered us and uttered horrible things and sent us through some sort of claustrophobia causing inflatable thingy and we were genuinely scared. They held us for only a minute or so but it seemed like an eternity. I said I don't scare easy but I was losing it a little. They were saying, this way and that way and were cackling and laughing at us. Finally they allowed us to pass through a door we had idea how we couldn't find and we ran through the rest as much as we could. All night going through the other attractions I joked and said wouldn't it be messed up if we were really going to experience that crazy, slaughterhouse sort of movie reality in one of these. My wife was not amused and then this happened. What an evening. The guy who doesn't scare was freaking like a little girl inside. Good stuff I must say. If you haven't experienced it and like a little thrill ride action mixed in, I HIGHLY recommend going.

Hmmmm, I think I'll pass. I jump when my furnace kicks in, so I can only imagine what an evening in a house of horror would cause.
ReplyDeleteHaha, that is funny. Sounds like horror flicks are not your cup of tea. I would honestly say Halloween is my favorite holiday. Personal, family issues affecting the other two big ones and ever since I was but a pup, Micheal Myers from the Halloween movies has scared the yes, that word out of me. My older sister made me watch it at a very young age and I peed myself and the works. But, I love them now. After a good spooky movie, that I watch alone, I will go to the bathroom and notice a shower curtain moving with the heat or something and I rip that thing open and breath a sigh of relief. And when I travel down the backwoods roads which I find myself on, alone, often, I imagine Jason from Friday the 13th movies popping out from the woods with an obscenely large machete kind of stuff. Yeah, a little wierd and freaky but it keeps the blood pumping.
