Dad and I went to opening night of California’s Great America’s Halloween Haunt. We payed 13 dollars each for a before park opening BOOfet and got in free with our Platinum passes. (Gold passes also get in free) The Boofet was cool. It was from 5:30 to 7:30. We got there about 5:45. We entered through a back entrance by the Pavilion Picnic area, instead of  the front entrance. We went  into the place with the food, and found out we weren’t going to be eating a normal dinner. Signs labeled the baked demons spleen, barbecued vampire heart,  mixed body parts, brains, eyeballs in blood, and many other monsterly entrees. We nervously walked through the line grabbing food and sat down at a table wondering if we were at the right place.

After eating, we hung out in a little courtyard until they let us in 15 minutes early. I guess the monsters got bored in their empty “scare zones” so they came out to harass us. There was a lizard man with a carnie, a ballistic cowboy, a freaky clown, and a plumber dude. The plumber dude was so SWEET! He took a picture with me. The others were pretty rambunctious. Probably because it was opening night.

When we went in, we saw a little more decoration then last time we went in. We went straight to the log flume, so we wouldn’t have to wait in line later. They renamed it Camp Gonnagetcha. We were upset at the little decoration around it and hoped the ride was themed. It was! There were camp monsters popping out at us all over! One of them was going to eat my ears! I scared the ride op though!  He was sitting at the bottom of the hill not paying attention. I said”BOO” and he went”aah!” It was cool!

The rest of the park was O.K. We finally got our caricature done! It looks awesome! Dad and I are on a wooden roller coaster! Then we went to the Ed Alonzo Halloween show. I didn’t really like it especially  compared to his normal show. He did one of the SAME acts. The show was short and Ed Alonzo was only IN the show for half the time at most. The other half had “sexy girls” either dancing  behind a screen to “I Kissed A Girl”, running around  in skimpy cop outfits chasing a duck in a car, or sawing a coffin in half with a skeleton in it! Ed did a trick with a straitjacket that took him way to long to get into, but the end was cool. There were also a lot of adult jokes that I didn’t care for.

After that,  I  got to watch a Dave Hill hypnotist show from onstage. That’s right, he hypnotized me along with 19 other people. I was actually hypnotized! He relaxed us and I fell asleep on the guy next to me’s shoulder! I tried to open my eyes once and I couldn’t! They were too heavy. I also tried to move my feet and lift up my head, but I couldn’t. I was truly hypnotized. He told us to focus on his voice, and that’ s all I could hear while “sleeping”. I didn’t even hear all of it. Just bits and pieces. My dad was in the audience, and he said Dave was making people do crazy things like act like Elvis, dance with a doll that was “Pamela Anderson” and made two guys dance with each other like they were dancing with a beautiful girl. I didn’t do anything like that, I just answered my left shoe when the phone rang, and started talking to my best friend. Oddly enough, about the same time I was doing that, H called and left a voice mail saying she was excited about Miley Cyrus’s birthday and wished I answered so we could talk. How crazy!

Over all, it was O.K. and I look forward to Knott’s Scary Farm.
