Fun at the Rosedale Haunted house for Halloween

Hello my friends......doing a quick post on Halloween near our home which we went to yesterday (Saturday)....last year we also attended and check the link here /halloween-fun-in-rosedale of my blog post where they had the Thriller dance and heaps of stalls, activities etc.....

This year the Haunted house was at the home of a great American guy who brought this to the community for his kids who missed Halloween living in Oz and had done this for quite a few years. Last year they were able to hold it in a park with the old school being where they turned it into a great haunted house.....The Old school committee in their wisdom thought this year they would charge ridiculous prices so back to the original home it was......and great too ☺☺

Quite a shame as last year it brought lots of people into the actual town of Rosedale where they visited the shops/pubs/cafe's which was quite profitable....anyway, this haunted house group do it all for just a gold coin donation and it was so good to be able to attend this year and blog again about it ☺☺♥♥

This pub was packed last year with serving meals/drinks and general fun

After our stroll around town (seeing all shops closed this year) we came back to line up and wait......Hundreds of people of all ages, some dressed up and other just regular looking folk lol 

This little guy dressed as a court Jester and 1 of the many many volunteers a bloody looking nurse with a cows tongue came around to scare people 

More of the awesome volunteers and there neat makeup ☺☺

How sweet lol and one even had a zipper stuck on her face

This guy was incredibly tall and had me screaming in the Haunted house as we went through lol 

Getting darker and the man enjoying playing Zombie's on his mobile lol 

Almost at the entrance 

Just another scary picture on the way in lol 

And here is Beetlejuice the american guy Dave welcoming us inside ☺☺

Well this is NOT great pic but it is after the haunted house which was fantastic....even a chainsaw guy, people being badly operated on....zombies galore, you name it they were there and quite a bit scary lol....Thanks for such a fun time Dave and Andy

No photo's taken inside as I was holding the mans hand lol 

The post for the event also a facebook page ☺☺

Half of the money raised with the gold coin donation was going to Muscular Dystrophy and the other half to a local school for ipads....

To think I had lived nearby for 8 years and only discovered them last year.....very happy me

Well thanks for visiting and I will be back with what we did around here prior to this fun

Take care and love to you all xoxo

Halloween fun in Rosedale

Happy Halloween to those who like.......

Put on my neat t-shirt today as we were going to visit a small town near where we live

Rosedale and have driven through and visited quite a bit, but never knew that some residents from USA had started something 6yrs ago

Oh yes, pumpkins.....

And lots of young one's dressed up, some walking like a zombie ☺☺

These young lads were more than happy to wave their sickle lol 

Ah yes a zombie dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller...they were hoping to break the Australian record of 900 with 1000 people doing the dance ☺

How cute are these cupcakes.....

Even eyeball cakes lol 

The crowds were starting to arrive

Oh I did not like this massive spider one little bit lol

And they had a haunted house which the American family had been doing for years and  now on a rather large scale and I never knew anything about this till this year! I only live 30 mins away....But having said this, I don't really like dark rooms so no I did not go inside but do know from other years others have screamed their way through......

There was a leg hanging out of the spiders mouth and all the little kids loved it and touched it to make it move.....brave kiddies ☺

A selection of living dead dolls.....

One of the local radio stations were there to help and here were a few of the dancers practicing the dance

More neat decorations, I felt right at home as love this

Great carved pumpkin ☺☺

Plenty of place selling food and drink ☺

Even a selection of farm animals, of course I loved the ducks 

Another stall with a witch buying some spiders...eeek 

Horse drawn carriage taking many for a ride around town

Check out that headless driver and unsure about his sidekick lol 

Even the horse was into Halloween lol 

Those doing the dance needed to register so they would know the number for maybe breaking the record......

Got a snap of some more entrants, neat 

Many local shops had their decorations happening 

Local Chemist had the zombie dance brochure up 

Even the butcher had decorated ☺☺

A bigger group practicing.....

The screen where they would show the video clip and later a movie Monster House

Plenty dressed up 

A better picture from my mobile of them getting their zombie on lol 

Look at the amount going to do the thriller dance......

The front group.....

And it was about to begin with the Thriller clip first then the dance.....

I took a movie but it was too dark to really see all of the dancers but it was a lot of fun

We are now back home and early enough for some young trick or treaters to visit us and score some body part lollies lol 

Do you like Halloween?

It is not really celebrated that much here but many do like how they can go around with their kids just for a fun family time ♥

Hope you enjoyed this little post

Take care xoxo
