Haunted House 2014!

This has been such a fun tradition to carry on from the Barrett side of the family. My Grandma Barrett always had a huge haunted house we would walk through (well it started as a wall and ended up a whole large indoor pool room and storage area). Pretty sure it emotionally scared us all but it was awesome!!! Shauna started the haunted house a few years ago and for the past couple of years all of the sisters have started to contribute to the fun! We added two new scenes this year which was pretty exciting!
The garden scene with good ole' Carl the scarecrow I made last year. This scene is accompanied by a monster in a scarecrow mask (which happened to me this year and I no longer have a voice! Haha! :)) 
One of the skeleton scenes in the sandbox around the trampoline. There was also a cut out house which JD hid behind. 
The butcher shop is a family tradition. This year Jen manned the station as the dead victim on the table that comes to life. 
The cemetery which included the grim reeper and featured Jon as a random monster. 
The "IT" scene was new this year and fashioned by Jen. It is also a family tradition to have "IT" the clown in the haunted house. Still scares the crap out of me. Ross manned this station and was a freaky It.
The pirate skeleton scene, spooky as always and originally fashioned by Cook. Shauna's friend Christina manned this station. It really thew off the kids because they couldn't figure out who it was behind the mask. 
The witch scene was new this year as well. Shauna and I worked on this scene and Brooke manned it as the fourth witch. 

It was an awesome haunted house this year and we look forward to scaring, I mean scarring the kiddos next year. Let the family fun continue!!!!!
