People think we're crazy for dressing up any other time than Halloween, than why not cosplay on Halloween?!

Fright Town is a series of haunted houses in Portland. A few people and myself thought it would be fun to go to this in cosplay! It wouldn't be bad, since I've gone there in costume before, and they didn't say anything. We can even have a mini photo shoot right outside beforehand.

Halloween versions of characters is very encouraged, but not required, and nor is cosplaying.

Here is their website: http://www.frighttown.com/

Tickets are $20 for all three full haunted houses. And you can print this coupon out to save $5: http://www.frighttown.com/coupon.html
You can also pick them up at some places like the Spirit Halloween superstore, and Dairy Queen. I will be bringing extras if you need one. Just look for the girl with long green hair and pink and purple stripes.
And if we get 25 or more people, we can also get a discount there.

Who: Anybody who's up to the challenge!
What: Attending the Haunted attraction FrightTown
Where: Rose Quarter Coliseum (has a MAX stop there)
When: October 30th, meet @ 6 for pictures, FrightTown @ whenever you want
Why: Because that's what's Halloween is for!

And also, my girlfriend (Kistiene) is planning to hold a cosplay/costume chess for those of us who are staying outside and have nothing better to do. So please, if you are interested, go sign up in her forum! We still need Pawns!!!!!!!
http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?topic=11601.0

And a quick note...Please do not bring weapon-like props! They will not allow you in, and large props will just get in the way in the houses. So, if you plan to bring a prop for the photoshoot, please either make sure it can fit in a bag or don't plan to go through the houses. Those of us who won't be going through the house and will be hanging out, may be willing to watch your stuff. But please just be smart. Thank you.

Yeah. I know it's about two months away. But, it's better to start early. We'll talk about dates once it actually gets closer.

I think doing it the night before Halloween would be cool!

Forum Name: iluvshijimi
Cosplaying: Yukiko Amagi (Persona 4)
Preferred date: 10/10, 10/17, 10/24

(For Persona fans: Wouldn't it be fun to see Yukiko getting scared silly?! xD)

I would prefer Saturday over Friday because I work until 5:00 PM on Fridays and I don't want to bring my cosplay to change at work, but if we end up going on a Friday I still can.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #21 on:** August 15, 2009, 02:17:46 pm »

Sounds good.

I just realized that I put some of the dates wrong...

If I can finally pull Goku together, he will also be packing a plush 4-star dragon ball for someone to hold if they get scared.

uraharafreak · « **Reply #24 on:** September 09, 2009, 07:11:39 pm »

Great! Added you both.

Wait...Urahara, you are working at FrightTown?!?!?!? If you are, that is AWESOME!

Prefered date: Any of those should work for me, but the Friday before Halloween sounds fun!

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #27 on:** September 12, 2009, 12:52:50 pm »

Yays! More peoples!!!

I think I'll just put it on the 30th. It seems like most people wouldn't mind, and some would like it then. And that'll give others time to prepare and stuff.

*edits first post*

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #28 on:** September 12, 2009, 02:52:30 pm »

The 30th would be perfect, because it makes Halloween two days long for us. Assault on Fright Town day 1, candy hunting day 2.

Would we be terrified in our bones or have our fingers on our camera triggers if we see you?

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #29 on:** September 12, 2009, 03:01:51 pm »

Exactly!

Wondering...What do you people think about the times?
Meeting at the Rose Quarter around 6 to take pictures and then heading down there between 7 and 8?

I'm just trying to not have people out so late, so younger people can come and not have to worry about riding the MAX in down town portland late at night...

And we could possiblly take some more pictures when we're done, if it's not too late, when it's darker.

Pein_Cupcake · « **Reply #30 on:** September 12, 2009, 04:57:29 pm »

I'll see if I could go!I will go as undead L!

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #31 on:** September 12, 2009, 08:26:47 pm »

Sweet! This is gonna be a blast!!!

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #32 on:** September 12, 2009, 09:27:46 pm »

Well I could come as Goku or, since Emperor Palpatine is considered dead but so strong in the force, there's no reason why he can't come back as a zombie and continue his reign of terror. He'll just leave his force lightning silly string at home.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #33 on:** September 12, 2009, 09:33:39 pm »

lol
I think either would be awesome!

I'm hoping that my group will come. They're the rest of the FMA in Wonderland...

lol I'm not as young as some people coming would be, but I would be nervous about riding/walking around by myself late at night XDXD yeah, I'm pathetic haha

aah, I really need to start thinking about who to cosplay! I keep forgetting about it. XD

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #37 on:** September 13, 2009, 11:44:36 am »

My mom hates me riding the MAX by myself at night...We could figure out where people need to go and plan riding the MAX together or something...

lol
It might help. But you don't have to cosplay.

Acheron · « **Reply #38 on:** September 13, 2009, 01:27:49 pm »

omg lol forever

I (and two other friends of mine who are also K-con attendees) volunteer at Frighttown as a monster. If you guys showed up any Friday or Saturday while it's open, I'll be there, probably in Elshoff Manor. I'd cosplay with you guys, but I get there at 4pm and spend the time until opening getting assigned to a spot, made-up, and costume'd.

^^ If I recognize any of you while you're cosplaying, I'll make your experience extra-scary, though~!

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #39 on:** September 13, 2009, 01:37:16 pm »

That's awesome, Acheron! Be on the look out for us on the 30th

Oh, great....

AllyKat · « **Reply #40 on:** September 13, 2009, 01:56:27 pm »

I'll have to see what funds are available to me as of that week but I'm fairly certain
myself and 1 friend should be able to come to fright town with ya'all!

Red the Ninja may bring his golden shield for you to hide behind, while his furious red LED eyes burn strong and piercing into the darkness where demons cower and devils cry for their mothers. Firebrand, the Red Dragon spirit within him, will be your nightmare against the nightmares.

And epic moment over.

Tobias · « **Reply #43 on:** September 13, 2009, 11:20:19 pm »

I would go, except I hate being scared. And things jumping out at me. And anything remotely scary XD

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #44 on:** September 14, 2009, 12:58:42 am »

Oh! And on that note, NO WEAPONS!!! They might not let you in if you have weapon-like props. So, if you plan to bring any props, make sure it can go into a bag or something.

Tobi!!! I wants you to go!!!!!!!

If people would like, we could have a sepreate group that stays outside, so people who'd like to come to hang/photo shooting could and wouldn't have to worry about being alone. And people who are going in, could take brakes between the three "houses" to hang with them, and maybe do shifts...?

I'd be willing to do this. I get scared very easily, and sometimes have panic attacks...So, I might end up just not going through the houses and just hanging around in the area with others who don't want to go in.

Anamink · « **Reply #45 on:** September 14, 2009, 01:27:47 am »

I don't get scared easily, so stick close to me and I'll protect anyone from the scary stuff! ... because I'm SO intimidating and all >.<

Taking turns standing outside, if there's a group that doesn't want to go in, sounds like a good idea. It's all about having fun with friends anyway!

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #46 on:** September 14, 2009, 01:47:04 am »

Exactly! There's a large open area that's also inside that we could hang out in. You only have to pay if you're actually going into the houses, so those who don't wouldn't need to!

I'm actually gonna have to debate with myself...Last two years I went and got too scared to even go through all of them, and so sorta wasted my money.......I think if there's a large number of people who don't want to go, I'll just hang outside with them. And by "large" i mean like 5 or more people...

And I'd like to make sure I have at least a couple of your phone numbers, in case the "outsiders" decided that they/we want to go up and take some pictures or something...Just so those who are in the house don't get lost trying to look for us...And we'll just do this when we meet there.

Secret_Agent_V · « **Reply #47 on:** September 14, 2009, 02:03:31 am »

I'm game! Sounds like tons of fun, and a great chance to get out of work at the halloween superstore. xD So crazy the night before halloween...

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #48 on:** September 14, 2009, 03:54:32 pm »

Sweet! Glad you'll be able to join us! Lucky, you work at a halloween store!

I'll put you down!

And remember guys, if we get 20+ people, we can get a group disscount. So invite your friends!!!

Tobias · « **Reply #49 on:** September 14, 2009, 05:01:05 pm »

Well, if we end up having a group just stand out side and wait then I might go. XD

But if some one is willing to have there arm squeesed to death, then I might go though...maybe...probably not. XD
