Frightful Sights at
Muni Mayhem!
The sun has set on those warm Muni nights, so step through
the gates for new Muni frights! That’s right, it’s back, our frightful fall
fest – we’re dying to greet you, our dear
mortal guests!
Let’s stray just backstage for some a-MAZE-ing sights. But
wait back, just a moment, something’s not right. A few orphans and nuns and an
Audrie or two – there’s the old law school where blonde alumni are few. It all
seems familiar, but yes, something’s bizarre. You see, these are spirits of
Muni seasons afar!
“Oh, my! What is
that?” you say with a gasp. My dear, you’ve just stumbled into our grasp. Oh,
no, I don’t mean to take you aback – it’s just that our ghosts are eager to
welcome you back! Where? Right up there! Scaring up a good show – friendly
ghosts singing and dancing how can you feel woe?
Let’s sit by the campfire now that we’re through, gather
around to share a s’more or two. Yes, we’re still good (g)hosts not just here
to say “boo!” I believe our roaming thespians are popping up a performance for
you.
Don’t be scared of the shadows – no, don’t worry ‘bout them.
You can survive all of the Muni Mayhem!
1. How to ward off
spirits at Muni Mayhem
We spirits are frightened by bright lights! If you want to
wander through our Haunted Backstage Maze without getting spooked, please get a
magical glow wand at the front of the maze to ward off our more scary haunts.
2. Watch out for our traveling
thespians
We’ve welcomed new ghouls to our hallowed grounds! Keep your
eyes peeled for pop-up performances from wandering spirits – but, please, don’t
stop for hitchhiking ghosts.
3. S’mores kits and
other concessions available for purchase
Our ghosts and goblins running the concession stand only
accept cash payments so, please, be sure to bring some old fashioned money with
you to our happy haunt.
4. Bring something
warm
We spirits have a habit of chilling our corporeal guests.
So, please, bring a jacket, blanket, and anything else you might need to stay
warm. Being the hospitable (g)hosts we are, we’ll have coffee and hot chocolate
for sale and import campfires from warmer regions beyond.
5. Come dressed as
you are or dressed as us
We’re happy to welcome you to the Other Side in your mortal
state. But if you want to come dressed as your favorite ghoul, we’d love to see
what you might look like when you become part of our little show…
6. Tell your friends
