Wish I had pics it was fantastic. It was a family event. It was called In Pursuit if a Repulsive Potion. It was in the small town of Wilbourforce. AKA the geocaching capital of Canada. (its a good thing they have that going for them cause they are really in the middle of no where )
They whole town seemed to be in on it. Some of the things you had to collect..
A spoonful of Fairy poop (you had to drive way into this field and walk into the woods, and there was fairy doing her business!!:yikes
An eye from a milk Snake. (you had to go to this creepy old sawmill and find the ghost who would give it to you.)
A stewed lizard liver, this was got from the celler of the local ice cream parlour.
One handful of mushy brains..ewwww
There were lots more. It was dark and rainy and really spooky. Darien, our son was a bit scared at times.
After you got all the ingredients you had to go back to the 'Cemetary of Chaos and Corruption' and go down to 'Professor Hossenfeffers Lab' and give your ingredients to him. It was really spooky and well done. Electric jacobs ladder thingies, strange smoking beakers, a big freshly butched cows leg, etc etc. Then you were escorted through this hauted house maze thing. It was really really well done. Then there was punch and coffee, cookies, and candies, and cakes. We sat around talking with other geocachers waiting for all the teams to arrive. Once we were all there, we were led out to a bonfire.
Now last years halloween geocache they were trying to bannish Leweena Gizzardstone. This year they were trying to finish the job. The witches really looked and sounded like witched. One of them stood up and read out this incantation. Then they passed around the 'crystallized potion' and we all took a pinch. Then she recited another incantation and we all repeated it back. Then we threw our pinch of powder into the fire. It sparked and crackled. (it was sooo cool)
BUT then Professor Hossenfeffer cried aloud and his 'guts' fell out, and fell to the ground. The local rescue truck came flying in lights flashing, they picked the professor up and loaded him in the truck and sped away siren going. (only in a small town could you do this )
Then the local press came and told us that the professor had been a victim of a gut spilling spell. They had him in serious but stable condition. It seemed that the doctors were going to have to put him into an induced coma until they found a way to put new 'guts' back in him. And that it might take up to a year...
So looks like there will be a sequel next year. opcorn:
