Hauted House and yard haunt stories

[Jack Reaper]

This is to get some stories out of you gouls.

First of all, the name Jack Reaper is not only my online name. It is my professional H.H. name. Go to any haunt in Denver and mention that name, there will be at least one that will Know.

The story starts in 1986 when I was working at The Dungeon of Terror for the March of Dimes.*note* This predates Jack Skelington and BeatleJuice. I had gotten into costume for the night and had dressed as a Reaper. The mask was an early version of the popular glue on ones. It had a seperate jaw piece so one could eat, drink, smoke without taking it off.
They needed someone to play the part of Jack the Ripper in the alley and had asked me. Rather than put on another costume, I stayed as is. Since noone really knew what the Ripper looked like, it didn't really matter.
While playing the part, a patron had asked if I was Jack The Ripper. I turned around and flatly stated "No!! I'm Jack The Reaper!!"
From that point on, I started playing up on that charactor, saying that I was the Brother of Grim. He was to busy to be here with all the drunk drivers and all.
I also chaged his look. I soon sported a "posser" wig and spandex looking like an undead hair band member.(Guns and Roses) My act was a lot like you'd remember from Beatlejuice except I did it first!
No, I don't think Michael Keaton stole it from me, but Tim Burton did both Beatlejuice and a Nightmare Before Christmas.hmmmmmmm!
These days I wear middle age type armor and garb, looking alot like something from the movie Army of Darkness.
I also did this charactor wearing Japaneese Armor with Hakama and Kamono.
I don't do this charactor much unless the temp. allows for it.
This year I'm trying to create something close to the Wish Master.

Heres my story about the worst Haunt ever. I wont mention the name Ruby Tree farms because I dont want people to know where it is...he he. Anyways, this place gets worse every year. I actually had to apologize once to my friends for bringing them there. It starts off where you walk through Draculas den. Theres lots of maniquinns with masks on and other things in glass cases. A guy in a white sheet will jump out about 20 yards in front of you and scream. Since hes so far away it doesnt scare you at all. When you leave the den, a buzzer goes off. Now its time for the "spooky ride". You get in a wagon and a tractor pulls you through the haunted forest. First you come up to a fog machine by a tree. The tractor slows down and then drives away. Yeah, thats the scariest fog machine you'll ever see. Then it drives through a completely dark forest. You go around twists and turns, but nothing happens. This takes about 15-20 minutes. Now you come up to a pond and the tractor stops. OK, now somethings gonna jump out. You can feel the long awaited excitement begin to brew. After about a minute, the tractor drives away. Still nothing! Finally you drive through this dirt area with hills and wooden sheds. Here come the people with the chainsaws. A few of them start but a couple people are standing there pulling and praying to get theirs started. By now the riders are laughing at them. You can see them as you drive away, holding there now rrunning chainsaw in the air as if showing a sign of victory. But wait! Someone has lit a pack of firecrackers and you can hear them popping in the distance. Oh I'm scared now! So thats my story of the worst haunt ever. I didnt go last year because for 5 years in a row I went thinking it cant be worse then the last year and it always is. [V]

The worst experience at a Haunted House was not because of its' content but what they said at the beginning. The door man would look at everyone and say,"Are you prepared to die?" I thought to myself this was his way of preparing us for the scare. Then he says," Because Jesus died for you........" and from that point on I was not in a good mood because if I wanted to hear a sermon, I would have gone to Church.[V]

[mr.sasquatch]

I feel your pain Mr. Reaper!

[Jack Reaper]

Anyhow, I'm working the front door at a Haunted house and some smart*** kid walks up and tells me that I can't scare him.

I just looked at him and said that I could and it would be real easy.

He said there was no way I could do it.

"What do you want to bet?"

"A million dollars!"

"are you sure?"

"yes!"

"O.K. you are on! Where do you live?"

:D:D:D

;)True story.

There was a haunted house where a contest to see how many places there were to have sex. Occasionally the actor and actress would see if they could do it while patrons were coming through and not get caught.

Needless to say that, at tear down time, interesting items were found.[|)]

Wow, about the Religious Experience...
Yes, in some places, Halloween is considered evil and no one who enjoys it can do so without general public censure, so they try to find a way to sanitize it with an injection of references to Christ.

Considering that the thrill of the thundering voice of the minister calling down fire and brimstone in some traditional Baptist churches is very similar to the thrill of seeing ourselves in all our mortal vulnerability at a great haunt, it makes a lot of sense to blend the two!

But when the two are blended blandly, God save us all!

One of my friends lives in a religious family. Her dad is a minister and they were never allowed to trick or treat or anything. Halloween, they would leave the house and go to a movie or something. Now I tease him saying "Thats so nice of you to take your family out to celebrate Halloween." He usually replies in an angry voice that they are not celebrating. I feel so bad for those people. He wont even watch horror movies because he claims he doesnt like them.

"I spent eight years trying to reach him and another seven trying to keep him locked up,
because I knew what was behind his eyes is purely and simply evil...
He became an obsession with me until I realized there wasn’t anything within him neither
conscience nor reason. He wasn't even remotely human!" -Dr Loomis, Halloween

Ok, I had this dream once, I think it like.. I mean it was so realistic, here I was, depressed as always, & I could FEEL my feet walking, I could feel the things that I touched... My family went to this... twisted farm as an outing. There were anamals (as always) but... There were tuttles, snapping ones. BIG ones too, as big as a tortoise,. There were baby ones there also, so I picked one up (twoo inches, how cute) & It tried to snap at my finger, so I threw it in a soft pile of turtles just laying there... There were pigs & sheep & cows, dogs, anything you could imagine... but the people fed the new boorn pigs to the dogs & grown pigs!! I saw a pile of them, interistingly enough, they werent all bloody.. they looked hallow.. So I walked away from all that to a barn. It wasnt a notmal barn, it was a ****ing stair well down. Not down that far, about 15 feet er so. There was this strange noise.. kinda like gurgling, & I looked down to see this small wooden box with smoky black water in it. The box was about hmmn.. about a foot & 6 inches wide er so. So I polked in the water with like a 10 ft. stick, & I saw a splash of like.. an eel, a black one & it started making this freakishly weird LOUD noise, it started talking to me i dunno what it said, dont remember, but enough for me to bloody run outta there, so I told the keepers of the farm, & they said "oh no.. she disturbed it" & one of the married two (the woman)turned to me, & said, "Never get into this.. We are permantly burdened with this creature" & they ran to the barn to.. calm it down er sumptin & I was just like "DAMN!!!"
