i work , most of the time as a volunteer (you have to really love the job, to get no pay, have rude patrons, be in the dark, cold/hot, and work on your feet from 8pm till midnight, and as late as 2am on super busy nights, gotta love doing it, for the sake of doing it...seriously) at Oklahomas Premier Haunted Attraction..The Sanctuary OKC.
Back story, just to get you up to speed:
have to thank Andrea W. for even enlightening me about this place, i had no idea it even existed, for what ever reason, i wasnt in the loop of knowing about it until Andrea had asked me if i wanted to go to it, 2 years ago.
im down for anything fun, and exciting. so i said sure, i managed to convince my guys (craig, and Daniel) to also go. bought our tickets online for the VIP access.
and went to have a little fun.
so, we go in, waited a few minutes.
it was our turn to have the walk through, and we listened, and did the event.
LOVED IT!
wanted to be a aprt of ity, because when i was pregant with daniel, i worked another haunted house, so it would be like coming full circle to me, to do this again, this time WITH the kid, also acting..
so, that night, about midnight, 1am, whatever time it was i got in the door, i looked up The Sanctuary OKC online, and sent them an email asking if i could work for them, understanding it was going to be non paid (my other haunted house was also not paid)
so, that week, Daniel and myself had an interview, and a run down, and were hired.
that was thier 2nd year of being opened,
and my role was a disembowled paitient in a surgical room.
next role was..a nun,
next role, i had craig in a room with me, and we played a couple.
next role i was a butcher cafe lady.
next role MRS CLAUSE (was the 1st year for that role, and i got to play it!)
then this weekends role: CANNIBAL LADY (one night with a daughter, last night with my husband)
so, valentines night, was spent scaring ppl in a dar building, where they have to walk through the entire, 3 floors in near pitch dark, with only a small pin-light on thier finger to have as any light source.
no candy, no gifts, no dinner out.
nope, hubby and i shared out night acting together in a room.
me, cannibal lady, he..PIG FACE!
and just to give you a sense of who craig is..he NEVER likes to be out front...EVER!, hes not a social butterfly (like me) hes not a chatter (like me), hes a behind-the-scenes-dont-wanna-be-out-there kinda guy. and thats fine. its just the way he is. i couldnt expect him to be anything more.
we thought, he was gonna do his regular thing, run the barrels, hes the "best barrel dropper they have ever had", so we thought (cause we were told) hes be doing his regular dropping barrels onto ppl.
but when we get there, they decided to have him work my room (the cafeteria)...
and, he was gonna be, my hubby...(perfect for him, by the way..lol)
i had been wearing, for a small time a pig face, but because i have a bad eye, and a strpbe light in the hallway next to me going off, my left eye ould compensate for the quick change in light, and it just looked like a completely blacked out area, and my right eye couldnt focus (cause i wasnt wearing my glasses, how odd would that look under a pig mask)...so i took that thing off, at about thr 10 minutes in, mark.
but suggeste craig wear it last night.
so he did.
and he had a ton of scares!!! FOR A GUY WHO WONT ACT!!!
hed stand still, and wait for them to hit his own cued marker he devised, then take a step and growl at them...most ran towards the door, out and away from him...he did great!
so, yeah...
this familys a little on the oddball side..
oh..where was daniel?
he agreed to come in and work, if i cut his hair, so i did...
he was "in the closet" (LOL, im kidding!) around the corner from me 3 rooms away.
i could hear him when hed make his heavy chain rattle.
so we were all on the same floor, just like last year. (daniel was in the classroom across from the hallway were i am.)
so..HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!! from the WACKO WILLIAMSON FAMILY!!! lol
