There was 4 of 'em, one about 10, and the rest about 14. Not even dressed up.

I said to them, 'Why aren't you dressed up?' One of them said; 'My mum said, I can't have a mask, because 1), I'm an a**hole, and 2), I'm ugly enough' :-O

I have a 'Scream' mask on, and a matching witches hat. Plus a giant toy spider and a real live (co-operative) black cat, it adds to the 'atmosphere' a bit. I guess I never grew up, lol :-))

We've just frightened a group off by laughing through an electronic voice changer (Hawkins Bazaar is wonderful!)

Paul Report 31 Oct 2006 19:17

I've just been watching 'Scarey Movie 4' That was quite good, but not as good as the others. Mosh Haunted is on @ 9pm.

Kris - love it!! Well done, you! We have my microphone wired up, upstairs which overlooks the front where they're calling. I open the window, dressed in my mask and hat, and the vocal effect emits an eerie echo when I say 'You rang?' x (The cat got fed-up, lol)
