Horror Booth Experience

November 30, 2021

Greetings read community. How is your last day of the month? Is it good? I hope it is or it will.

It's been three days since I last published an article. I became inactive for three consecutive days for the reason that I need to rest my eyes from exposing too much radiation from my cellphone. Three days prior, my eyes was aching together with my head. I felt my head was  so heavy that I had trouble in sleeping. I thought that maybe I need to keep myself away from any gadget for the meantime. I only used my mobile phone just to listen to music using my YouTube Music app. At this moment, I am glad that I'm feeling better. I can sleep peacefully and soundly.

Yesterday morning, when I browsed my Facebook account, I saw a horrific posts. I forgot the exact post but I think it was about a ghost. Then, my long term memory generated a flashback, a beautiful and funny experience actually. It is an experience that I can never forget. Yes, the flashback was about my first time horror booth experience.

I was 17 years old at that time. I was at Cebu, working as a saleslady in a bazaar. It was November and the municipality of Mandaue officials generated an event in one of their gym to celebrate the All Souls Day. There were many activities actually and one of the highlights was their horror booth. My sister's friend/boardmate invited us to visit the booth. We all agreed since we haven't tried such experience. My brother came along with us. We went at the venue  evening and there were many people so the queue was very long. We arrived there at 7 pm and we reached at the entrance almost 9 already. While we were outside, we heard the frightful sound and the ghastly scream of the people inside. I was already nervous while in line and had a second thought to proceed. But my curiosity prevailed so we continued.

When we were already at the entrance, my hands was already sweating out of fear and excitement. When the person who got our ticket cued us to go inside, we pushed each other to who to go in first. In the end, we decided to hold each other.Lol When we entered at the entrance, we were welcomed by the Grim Reaper (yung taga sundo ni Kamatayan). We let out a thunderous scream when the Grim Reaper swayed his fake reaping hook towards our direction. We ran forward to the next room to escape from the Grim Reaper. There, we saw a coffin. We thought that no one was inside but when we looked at it, the fake dead person suddenly rose up and tried to hold us. We were so frightened that led us to scream stridently. We hurriedly ran to the next station. In there, there was three doors that we were going to choose. We picked the third room which was a wrong decision for us for the reason that the level of hideousness was even higher.

When we entered the third room which we chose, we were welcomed by the darkness. It was so dark that we can't see where we going. And in order for us to get outside, we need to find the exit. We were holding each other while walking when suddenly there's someone who holds our feet. Again, we screamed and  trampled on those guys who holds our feet. Then, an ugly and horrific face appeared. Our scream has no end when we entered the room. The epic part was when my sister's friend pulled the hair of the white lady who appeared in our front.Lol Also, my brother almost punch the gay who had a costume of a dead person. Because of that, the person with a dead costume led us the exit early. They were afraid that they could get hurt because of us.Lol When we were outside, I vomited.(poor me) I'm always like that if I scream too much.

My experience was so memorable for me. The fun, the fright and scream were all worth it. It was a great experience for us siblings and friends. We had a great and fun time.

That's it for today guys. I thank you for the endless support even if I'm not that active for the past few days. Thank you so much. I appreciate you all especially my sponsors. God bless everyone and keep safe all the time.
