BLACKHALLOW DISTRICT ANNUAL PARADE AND CARNIVAL!

The annual Blackhallow District Annual Parade and Carnival marks the start of the Halloween festival! This is primarily a family friendly event but there are afterparties that are being thrown at various locations. Here are some items that are taking place:

Blackhallow District is bewitched to fit the mood! Despite it not being night, the district feels as if it is. The ceiling is bewitched to show a beautiful night sky with fun Halloween themed shapes. There is a scavenger hunt that is associated with this and is primarily geared towards young children.

The Parade starts at 7:00 pm and lasts until 8:00. It features Last years’ winners for the Shop Decorating contest, Street Performers Contest, the Halloween Champion, and various celebrities or well-known establishments. 

The Carnival Games:

Hit the targets with a water charm   /   Prizes range from extra small to extra large stuffed animals.

Frinz Pinch - try and toss a Frinz into small slots to win a prize   /   prizes are on the medium to large side as this is a semi-difficult game.

Duck Pond - there is a winner every game - usually geared towards kids /   prizes are player’s choice of a treat or a small toy.

Ring the Bell - a test of strength /    prizes are on the medium to large side as this is a semi-difficult game.

Ladder Climb Challenge - three people go head to head for a medium stuffed animal. the ladder is hexed and is one of the more difficult games to play, but it is a fun game for bragging rights among friends.

Dunk Tank - Various celebrities/officials volunteer for this game as all money earned goes towards a charity of their choice. 

Buzzer Game - trace a small hoop on a stick around a rotating screw without touching the side and making the buzzer go off.  / prizes depend on how far the player gets, from glowsticks to light-up swords. 

Roller Game - roll a ball onto a metal track; the object is to make it stop perfectly on top of a little hill. / this is a difficult game, so the prizes are pretty decent. typically animal hats, backpacks, and unicorn or devil horn hairbands. 

Darts - usually geared toward kids - toss a dart at a back wall filled with pictures. if it lands, you win. / prizes are generally small trinkets that kids would like: bracelets, mini slinky’s, plastic animals, etc.

TO THE PLAYERS: We are at the end of our first Halloween celebrations! Please try and focus on threads that are focused on the carnival or parade this weekend. All threads should be finished by Sunday night, but you are more than welcome to finish within the following week if you are unable to finish them. 

Adam hadn’t really meant to be in line for the tunnel of love. Unfortunately, he was looking at his phone and had been boxed in by railings. It seemed trying to escape would only draw more attention to himself, and he decided to accept his fate. As he was paired off with Asher, he raises a brow and groans to himself as he moves to slide into the cart. “This is what I get for not paying attention to where I’m going,” he complains, slipping his phone into his pocket and sighing heavily.
