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