We took the Gallery of Ghoulish Homes Tour in St. Charles again this year and made it a point to visit all our favorites from last year. They are the most fun because they feature live actors. They are getting pretty ballsy too – one guy got into someone’s van to scare the people who hadn’t come out! And another guy kept following me. I tried to take a self-portrait of the two of us but it didn’t come out, see?
* I told him he doesn’t photograph because he’s dead. ;)
The same guy later followed us, and K in particular, back to the SUV, even going so far as to run alongside the SUV as we pulled away, while threatening us with his (fake) knife. K and I got a serious case of giggles from that. I took a video but it’s so dark you can’t see anything so there’s no point in posting it.
There’s not enough time to ever see all the houses on the tour, but it was easier locating them with my iPhone’s GPS than putting together maps like I did last year. Interestingly enough, we didn’t visit most of the homes that the judges liked best, so we’re going to have to make a point to check those out before Halloween.
