It’s amazing what you can find if you just keep your eyes open or notice where your dog is heading to cock his leg…..
Last night I went with Hawklad to a large Halloween Fair which is held every year just outside the local city. Music, dancing, rides and 5 huge, live action haunted house like mazes. Well over 100 actors, theme dressed, all with the purpose of jump scaring you. All great fun. Even when you try to be prepared, they do get you…. On two separate occasions a poor woman behind me screamed and she involuntarily grabbed on to the nearest thing to her, ME… Through the giggles both said sorry and one said that she won’t mention that to the husband. 😂😂😂.
Another maze section has a room where the floor is heavily tilted (with disorienting lighting), it makes it feel like gravity is heaving pulling you in completely the wrong direction. One young actress dressed as a vampire lost balance there and crashed into me, with the immortal line ‘you will have to marry me now’. Clearly I would be a big hit in Transylvania…. Clearly disorientating lighting works for me as well 😂😂😂😂
But to balance things out, that yin and yang thing. One actress dressed as a mad scientist, with a manic laugh took one look at me and said ‘wow that’s some amazing Halloween Makeup you’re wearing, it makes you look a couple of hundred years old… oh wait, your not wearing makeup’. Or one middle aged actor, dressed I think as a female Ogre bride, gingerly climbed over a barrier next to me to scare some people in our queue. As he got over he looked me in the eyes and said ‘ I’m getting too old for this, everything hurts, I feel like rigor mortis is setting in…. But wow you’re really ancient, I dread to think how much you will be hurting, try not to dance too much tonight …’. Now that’s a proper chat up line 😂😂😂😂😂
The main thing was that Hawklad enjoyed himself. Life can get a bit too serious at times, too stressful. It’s so good to see him laugh.

Wonderful that he enjoyed it! I wouldn’t have thought he would react well to the crowd situation but it’s great that he did. Happy weekend!

I think because it was dark and lots had masks and hoods on, he felt anonymous

That makes sense.

It is surprising sometimes when Hawklad enjoys a crowd -e.g. the concerts. Can you explain it?

this time it was dark, with lots having masks and hoods up. I think feeling anonymous really helps him.
