Hallowe'en 2007


After much anticipation from Smalliverites, the boys did not disappoint their Hallowe'en thrill seekers this year. The theme was scenes of torture with about two weeks of preparation to get the set built and gather ghoulish supplies. The terror scenes included a fully operational hanging gallows, a chopping block waiting for heads and a bloody sawblade to tear limbs from it's victims.

We had at least 200 visitors who stopped to witness the horrors of the evening and handed out treats to over 180 costumed cuties. Some were so mesmerized by the drama in the yard that they forgot to come up for candy.

With the help of more friends and family, this year was a complete success with ideas of next year's Hallowe'en extravaganza already lurking in the minds of the creators. Many thanks out to all of you who helped make our spooky night one of the most popular stops in Smalliver.
