The Haunted Dollhouse!!!

For the month of October, Kalamity did a haunted house fundraiser!
Our theme was "The Dollhouse".
October was mine and my Aunt's month to head up the fundraiser so we jumped on it enthusiastically.
We had lots of dolls and fake blood, and with lots of help over a few days we had it all set up and ready for our opening night!
Here's the flier Jeff and I made.
Well the 28th was supposed to be the opening day but then Hurricane Dolly came and wrecked everything! 
Our tarps were being ripped off the posts, lights were falling and breaking, props were blowing everywhere and it didn't look like it was going to ease up.
 So we had to make the decision to cancel to reinforce everything and just do it on Halloween night.
We were so bummed.
And then this happened...
The sun came out, the wind stopped blowing, no more rain, birds were chirping and the day was perfect.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
Our haunted house was in shambles, the storm was over, and we were MAD!!!
There wasn't anything we could do now but to repair and build up the anticipation!
So we mounted it with boards, put everything back in place, and were ready.
Halloween came and we were all EXCITED!!!
Halloween day...
I wish I would've gotten more pictures of the whole haunted house, I'm kicking myself in the butt now but here's what I got.

 Everyone gathered for our pep talk and prayer.

We got so much awesome feedback on how scary we were and we love it!
So keep your eyes open for next years haunted house cause you WON'T WANT TO MISS IT!
Seriously, it was amazing.
 A new tradition started.
