a yr aft dear brought me to my 1st halloween event at d night safari, ytd, he bought me to d 1 at sentosa. fr wat i read, it was suppose to b d biggest event in sg so was kinda lookin forward to it esp when my friend told me tt it's scary for her. furthermore, fr d video snapshot of d advert online, it seemed to b reasonable ba...
when reached, d organizer had smoke & d floral fragrance to build up d atmosphere. however, thr weren't s many 'ghosts' floating around when we were thr. den, we went queuin for d merlion station. d gd thing is tt they also ctrl d no of ppl gg in at a time. thus, it wont b over crowded inside.
i was expectin more, like can go up d merlion & thr would be many ghost or monster ard to scare ppl but it was jus d bottom lvl. haiz... again, d organizer make use of smoke to build d atmosphere & oso d lighting but i find it overly done. too much smoke & too dark but can scare ppl who was not prep to have something jumpin out to scare u. but den... not gd for those w night blindness like me. in dark place i alrdy got prob seein well & d smoke made it worst.
can u imagine, i almost step on a ghost? if not cos d ghost make noise suddenly beside my leg wantin to probably pound on me, i guess i would ve step on him & instead of scared by him, i actually laughed cos i almost step prob on his hand since he was crawlin on d floor. den prob not i scream but d ghost scream. wahahaaa....
den, thr was a pt whr thr is some sort of beaded curtain kinda drop & behind was a ghost wantin to jump out to scare ppl. aft knowin tt, we slowed down to see those behind us got scared by d ghost. oh. for tt merlion trail, dear & i was d 1st to move. seein d ppl behind got scare, we kept laughin. anw, it was too dark for me to see how those ghost looked like. i only noe some got more eyes at d side of their face but other than tt, cant see at all. haiz
for d 2nd stn, it was in an aslyum. this time, we were in d middle & d gp of 4 behind got only a lady who kept tellin her friends tt she was scared & wanted to b in d middle. so i guess she was right behind me & she must ve followed me too closely tt she kept steppin on my slipper till it dropped. which made me v embarassed but soon i felt angry cos they nvr did they apologize but they refused to let me go back to take my slipper & kept blockin my path. so in d end, dear & i become d last of d gp. anw, prob cos behind oso got a ghost tryin to catch them so they kept wantin to move forward & thus blcokin me & oso cos they scare till duno they cos my slipper to drop.
but thanks to them. i oso had a great laugh. dear & i was lag behind by prob 1.5 to 2 m & s we were tryin to catch up, a ghost jump out of a cell & creep behind tt gp to scare them & seein them gettin scare make me laugh. to make things more hesterical, dear go & scare d ghost. prob due to d lag in distance, d ghost prob tot no one was behind & came out. needless did d ghost noe tt thr were 2 of us thr & so we caught it by surprised & when dear go & scare it, i could see tt it actually jumped when dear scare it. i ended up laughin v loudly for quite some time even aft we caught up w d gp. it must ve been d most embarassin moment for d ghost. lol... anw, d gp in front did turned to see wat i laugh & i don care if they think i laugh at them. hee...
anw, cos of tt, for d end of d trail & even at d 3rd & last trails, we wld slowed down at times to see other ppl's reaction & laugh when they jumped or run & scream. we r bad. we even siam for space for d ghost to move fr behind to scare those in front.
d last station was at d wax museum so some r real while some r fake. not easy to tell & they seemed well-trained to stand like statue tt s ppl r wonderin if they r real ppl or wax statue, d ghost will move & pound on them esp since it was dark & hard to tell fr real human.
for d 3 stations, i was also lookin ard since i nvr been into those place b4 but sad to say. it was too dark to really see well but i don think i will spend $$ to go in to see those places again s thr seemed nothing much inside.
frankly to say, i was expectin more so i was pretty disappointed. it was too dark & smokey & so cant even tell wat ghost is ard & their looks. every ghost like looked d same in d dark. face white white, panda eyes, blood stains & prob decomposed skin but cant really see. d trail was oso pretty short so d queue was longer than d actual scares.
& s compared to d night safari, sentosa only seemed to ve only ghost & no monsters & all d ghost look pretty much similar but dressed differently. d jap ghost seeemd scare of takin pic. ran away when we wanna take pic w it & it ran to scare ppl instead. haiz... & oso, thr were many indian ghost ard. d funny thing is tt thr is oso a ghost of a chinese taoist priest. seemed like he can cao du other ghost but not himself. lol...
well, thr r oso some ghost tt will come into d queue & scare ppl. it will suddenly stand behind u s u chat w ur friends, etc. some ppl do got scare by them & dear & i again went laughin seein ppl's reaction. oops... i noe we r bad.
prob cos it was a day b4 halloween, thr were oso many ppl dressin up for d occasion. but bit too many mad scientist ard. guess it's d most easiest dressin. jus take labcoat & put some red paint on it & den wear it den will do. some put mask which i had evil tots. had scary make up at mouth area den cover w mask & so look quite normal but when d ghost wanna scare u, pull down ur mask & den viola... scare d ghost back. wahahaa...
anw, it's more fun to be able to walk ard d ghostly place rather than sittin on d tram w d ghost out in d open & u can see them comin. so tt's d only plus pt s compared to night safari. but night safari got better deco outside & more variety of ghosts & monsters lurking ard outside for ppl to take pic w.
if i d organizer, i guess, i would prob organized a even bigger, scarier, longer trails, etc. d theme to b inside an asylum & wax museum is nice but put in more kick. even d trail at d merlion can b longer like gg up d merlion & thr r many diff types of ghost/monster at each lvl up. smoke come at interval but not too intense, lightin can flicker, so on & off, so can see surroundin, & prob can see d looks of d ghost & prob d fragrant scent can oso come at interval & den wind blow once a while & at diff direction & d air con oso cool & off at unfixed interval. den ppl can feel d shiver & chill down their spine. & oso, i noticed tt thr were black curtains at d side & so, prob, thr will b more ghost suddenly jumped out fr d side & bring in even smaller gp for for trills though seein ppl scare can oso b fun.
i suddenly tot of pavlor's conditioning. prob initial of d trails, d scent, wind, cold air, smoke & flickerin comes b4 d ghost appear, den when everybody will get conditioned to expect tt, d ghost suddenlt come out b4 d those ext things appearin. & if d 2 gp got too close tgt, den thr shld b backup plan tt prob thr r 2 diff gp of ghost station say at d wax museum. so even if d behind gp saw d ghost, den since they will b prep den tehy will b scare by d 2nd gp of ghost. oops.. i evil right? den ve mroe variety of ghost & monster lurkin ard too. be it inside d trail or outstationed.
anw, i find d staff tee v cute. it's nice. d 3 size of chinese vampire in ascendin order fr d left. v interestin. shall see if sch bazaar got sell similar or not ba. for d whole events, it was more like a lol session rather than a screamin session for dear & me but i still wanna thank him for bringin me thr knowin tt i WAS a fan of horror & triller movies before.
& since d event took place at sentosa, prob they can oso come w a package whr ppl can get to go to other places of interest in the daytime den go for d spooktacular in d evening & ve d whole sentosa have a sort of halloween theme though other places wld be v less intense. imagine lyin on d beach w a pumpkin head at d side or walkin ard & seein some skeleton/etc hanging fr d tree. oopps... enough eenough... i think i zou huo ru mo alrdy. seemed like a marketin idea le when i only took a sem of HR mgmt & a sem of mgmt. but thinkin of these seemed much more interestin than sci. haha...
well, halloween is over... hope eevryone had fun...
