Lower East Side Haunted House Opens To Public



With a little more than two weeks to go until Halloween, some witches and goblins are extending an invitation to their haunted house on the Lower East Side.

The nightmare house is the creation of some of the city's visual artists, theatre directors and designers.

The house opens to the public Friday night and will remain open through Halloween.

For more information, check out www.hauntedhousenyc.com.

I went to this one, it was OK. I have heard that Blood Manor was supposed to be scarier. This one is still a bit of a work in progress.

The Forest of Fear in Tuxedo, NY, right north of NJ. Hope to see some wicked clown stuff. Later we have a mischief night planned. The next day is Halloween. Fun fun fun.

The Village Halloween Parade was great this year.

The best costume I saw was what I'll call "Garbage Man" - a guy in a body suit with 3-D puzzle pieces attached. When he stopped, and folded himself down into a crouch, he formed a garbage can, with a lid.

I went to the Halloween parade, we walked in it the entire time. My friends wanted to be in it, rather than watch. I wish we couldve watched, I didnt see too much. Next year Ill have to make a better costume, I was a generic Vampire this year.
