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