Fright Fest 2014

 We made our annual visit to our favorite witch Friday night at Magic Mountain's Fright Fest, this time with Colleen, Rigo and Melanie.

My mom was entertaining, as always. It's been a hoot to watch over the years, as she's developed her character. She's received some acclaim this year, with park management and bloggers praising her.

Yes, I'm proud to be the witch's daughter!

She looks even cooler under black light, rather than the camera's bright flash.

 A cast of other fairytale/storybook characters haunt this section of the park, including Snow White and Pinocchio (or their gruesome counterparts).

After going on a couple of rides and walking through all the scare zones, we joined a big crowd on the outdoor dance floor, where a DJ and a lot of monsters led the moves to MJ's Thriller.
Of course, the witch was one of those dancing monsters. My mom can't stay off of a dance floor!

We all had a great time together - thanks, Mom! And, thanks to my dad for babysitting Cora, Violet, Lucas, Liana and Hula, their 11-week-old Rottweiler puppy!
