Markoff's Haunted Forest
Yesterday my Sister and Mr. Pat had a Pumpkin Carving contest and let me tell you I am NOT going near their front porch as their is a very scary pumpkin there, with ears AND eyebrows. Yipes.
Last Friday night they went to Maryland to a place called Markoffs Haunted Forest and if you can drag your Mouse Person out of the bowl of Halloween Candy, get him to fly you over there. I think, judging from the photo graphs on the cyberspace place that I DO NOT EVER want to go there. Even in the middle of the day.
Here is what we discovered on their web place:
There is only one!
Markoffs is Maryland's original and greatest Halloween event. There is so much going on that you're sure to soil yourself! Choose from 2 terrifying trails and while you wait, indulge in a dozen other spine tingling events from zip-lines to ghost hunts. The Markoffs have been freaking patrons out for the past 19 years, and every year it gets a little crazier! Often copied, never duplicated -don't be a chicken, come walk through our woods!

I was wondering if this was just a scary place to go, but then I discovered that there is a very good cause behind the trees in the forest. It is called Calleva and the word Calleva means "where the paths cross," so it’s a great name for an institution that gets around as much as they do! Calleva's mission is to get people of all ages outdoors, providing an educational and challenging environment that promotes personal growth, group cooperation and leadership skill through outdoor activities. Your Mouse Person can help you fly over to Calleva and take a look around, but meanwhile
......back at the forest:
Get on board the Haunted Bus!!!!!!!
