Halloween 2008 - Haunted House Party

If you have any pictures please send them to Ghost@HalloweenPartyZone.com
We are very short on pictures this year!

The biggest thanks this year once again goes to Frankie (I think he did more than me again)
he actually took off work two days to help - if it wasn't for him, we would have never been ready on time!

to Bill for lending me a bunch of Halloween items
He couldn't make it because of babysitting problems

to Zorro Joey (left) for helping set up the garage
to Vampire Doug (center) for video & front room setup
And to Jack Sparrow Ron (right) for cemetery setup and handing out candy

last but not least - Lauren, Liz, Renee, Mallory & Frankie once again for sending pictures.
And yet another thanks to Keystone Karaoke

Awesome Costumes - If only they could have gotten a picture all together
so I wouldn't have to photocrop one.
If they had a Vizzini I probably would have had to break the rules and give them the Academy Award!

Ah! Lemon(s), a favorite trotter & original and different costume (i don't think he had a fro tho)
The Mad Hatter - Fantastic costume 2nd in peoples choice, and I ask,
is it seriously that hard to get your picture taken for the web site and award photo?
I had to find & crop this one also! What is wrong with you people?

More Costumes
and my guesses as to what they are.
Once again I think were missing pictures of costumes! (We tried our best)
I was missing two of my best photographers this year - Tammy & Joan!

Judge Judy, Green Person with football paint under the eyes? Priest - Bad Catholic Boy

Richard Simmons & Biggest Loser (I know u 2 didn't come together) Cat in the Hat, Zombie? & Clue-less (again)

Quail-Man from Doug Cartoon Joel Goodson (if you don't know, look it up) & WT (again)

Football Player (maybe Joe the Plumber?) Robber (shown without mask) & Urban Sombrero Girl - Tennis Player
The robber won the Least Effort award, he took his mask off after 2 minutes.
He brought a case of beer though so we're not complaining that much.

I know there was a bunch more costumes not shown - I could still use more pictures!

I thought they were both left handed & I don't remember the fight ending this way.

Was it Mr. Green with a wrench or Mrs. White with a rope in the x-Billiards Room?

Was it Mrs. Peacock with a candlestick or Colonel Mustard with a lead pipe in the Dining Room
Ah, kids these days.

Was it Professor Plum with a Knife or Miss Scarlett with a gun in the Kareoke room?
the answer is below!

If you guessed Mrs. Peacock with a candlestick in the Kareoke room - you win!
The winner of tonight's mystery clue contest is Jeffrey Corbin... who guessed "some kind of person"
Congratulations, Jeffrey. You just won a brand-new Chrysler Cordoba. You can pick it up at Morty's office.

This years Extra Effort award
goes to Inigo Montoya who ended up slaying the 6 fingered guy
at 5 in the morning with his rendition of "That's Amore"!

Winner of the Fastest Finish "Broken Tombstone Award"

Not really a fastest finish as much as a "BTA"
for his exceptional work with the men in blue prop later in the evening.
