Pirates & Mermaids, Take a Look at Haunted Bookstore 2015 Jelly fish craft, and a cute, big eyed pirate girl! A kidnapped Puritan, gone a little batty…aka Jill! Walking the plank – easier for chicks than mermaids it turns out. Riley photobombed by a balloon sword, but cute anyway! A little not-very-high stakes dice game going on. Pirates in action. The Three Buccaneers! Katie, Katrina and Joe. Thanks for the help! A crazy pirate lady reading, or maybe the wicked witch. Courtney, the Pirate Queen! Allie and her dad Lowell were a huge hit making balloon creatures. Thanks! Way easier to shop for books before the store gets dark and spooky! Yes, Howard sounded authentically piratical. Mini as the pit boss. Okay, this is my favorite part! Celica arrived just in time to help, thanks Celica! The cutest little mermaid! Look at that tail! Aubrey with dad. Seaweed Dip anyone? Jake is ready for a dice game. Here’s a wide eyed listener! Hope those ghost stories were not too scary! Howard Wu shows some lesser known skills as a pirate musician. Jackie helping some royalty make jellyfish. The family costume prize winners – if there had been a contest! Mermaids Sarah and Aubrey with pirate mom Lindsey! Best part of the bookstore. Pirates can’t live on gold alone, cookies are essential. Beware of sharks! Party action. The potentially outlaw Phillips family, minus Mike Rowe. (I think he was off fixing something) Sarah and her dad James made a great Pirate/mermaid team! The Pirate Hook Toss game.
