Twas a sad day today when I unpacked all my props from my suitcases (used at HFW) & put them away. Had been putting it off because I didn't want it to be really over.
Also I had learned recently that the bigger of the 2 Haunted Attractions in my area is closed for the 2nd yr in a row. Meadowbrook Stables- Haunted Hayrides & Haunted Stables will be closed once again due to family matters. They are hoping to resolve it & return in 08. The other haunt is DarkShadows Manor & located in town. It consists of a large farmhouse & several shed buildings. For the past years as well as this year, they are only open 6 days in October. 
Looks like I'll be going to the Twin Cities for my haunting entertainment. I only have time to visit one haunted attraction a year, due to building my Maze of Terror.
