A fun easter egg in the photos is the air-cast you’re wearing on your foot. The fact that you, not only, took creative lead on the largest haunted attraction in the Pacific Northwest, but did it with a broken foot, is wild! I feel truly privileged to have been witness to that nearly unbelievable chicanery.

🤡😅 it is amazing the bones in that foot ever healed. Thanks for keeping the crew supplied with….liquid courage.

Lisette! I knew you were talented, but this is next level in a weird, fun, spooky, crazy way. I never thought about the fact that someone with alot of creative talent needed to come up with this whole haunted house, night of horrors thing and holy smokes, girl. You got it all in spades!

For me, I'm a giant chicken shit when it comes to anything scary, haunted or horror-y. My parents took me to see Amityville Horror when I was about 9 or 10? Ya, that pretty much did me in and I haven't watched a scary movie since.

I really want to see the new Demi Moore movie, but no can do.

Great post Lisette. Hope you had a fun Halloween. I was out trick or treating with my little grandsons and trying not to eat too many Kit Kat and Aero bars (didn't work). :)

😂🫶🏼 Thank you Kim.

Wanna know my biggest secret? *whispers*— I’m wayyyy too sensitive for scary movies. Or haunted houses I didn’t build!! In fact, every single time we did our first lights-out walk-thru before opening night it was so scary. Like even building the entire thing, knowing every single trick! I always said it was a good sign we had done our job well if we could creep ourselves out. Hahahaha! Love that you got to have some sweet Halloween fun with your grandsons. I’ll be swinging thru the mini candy clearance aisle this weekend 👻

You have led such a creative and fascinating life! I love this piece as it felt like I could vicariously live through you a bit (I always wanted to create haunted attractions or BE the haunted attraction 🤣) But most of all -- I love that it showcases your many talents!
