Friday, March 24, 2006 - 2006 Trail Ideas (To be edited along the way...)

Ideas for Names for this year's haunt: Undecided at this time but leaning towards   Dark Hollow

Dark Hollow

ScareCrow Hollow

Pinson's Haunted Hollow

Mansfield's Haunted Hollow

The Haunted Woods

The Woods

Site Ideas (order undecided at this time)

Need to create something as the wagon starts up the trail at the log pile. Old Indian? Solider stopping the wagon with warning and then sending them on?

Have red LED eyes to appear in the woods throughout the walk...

Create beside the trail a pile of heads, arms, legs...goes where?

1.  Drummer Boy: corpsed Bart dressed in rotten Confederate outfit. Will be holding a sign at the beginning of the trail. A drum will be near. Michelle H. to make sign.

2.  Monster Dining: Vampire Child mask to be bought from Cheap Creeps. Create body of Union soldier for this site. Group is emersed in total darkness, a horrible smell hits them first (get Audra to get few parts from slauterhouse). They keep walking and come upon dim lit area, monster has his back to them, bent over the bloodied body of Union soldier--eating. It turns to look at them, then jumps...

3.  "Help Me!": Create area that looks like storage of body parts. On some part take plastic and create "Help Me" backwards, in red paint, also hand prints and "bloody" smears on plastic. Someone suddenly shake plastic and scream!

4.  Hosptial/Mad Surgeon:  Would be near the Help Me site, This is an idea at this time, have someone dressed in bloody surgeon gown wielding bloody instruments. Tents constructed everywhere with body parts and occasional scream.

5.  Dark Hollow Cemetary: On side of the trail or down a path of trail, create cemetary (walk through)

6.  SouthernBelle: (can be close to the cemetary?) Lady in rocking chair, dressed as Southern Belle, cover completely in black sheers, rocking back and forth. Looks up, red LED eyes stare back? only rock?????

7.  Haunted Pumpkin Patch: Carve and light many pumpkins, fix scarecrows in and around patch, Pumpkin King (need to find mask, Death Studio one below interests me greatly) comes from somewhere out of the dark for the scare, bloody some pumpkins and area and have wedding prop head and ball gown to be bloodied for sacrifice

8.  Spider:  Buy Spider Thrifty from Buckey's Boneyard and corpse in mahagony gel stain, find a large, ugly spider? do victims wrapped in inside of comforter, soliders, spider webs bloodied (like this idea?)

9.  Battle Scene: take Blue's air cannon and Tim set charges union and confed soliders that are Zombies/ Ghosts are engaged in final battle or do I only want sounds of a battle?

10. Cornfield Maze:

Things I have to be used: small old green trunk, Creeper Mask, 5'7 Bucky skeleton
