Kreepfest 2011
August 12-14
Kreepfest 2011, a celebration of our 10th year, is already shaping up to be the best one yet!
Held in Harrisonville (just south of Kansas City MO) Kreepfest is a smaller haunters gathering more in line with a family reunion than a convention.
Friday will bring a special double feature movie night with a concession stand and a showing of The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra & The Lost Skeleton Returns Again. The first movie starts at 7PM, so grab your Atmospherium and pull up a chair!
Saturday will be a whirlwind of demos, haunted discussions, games, prizes, food, fun, and friends. There will be a hearse rally in the parking lot so if you want to bring your own funeral wheels, feel free! We have lucked out to get Becki Gooch from Raycliff Manor haunted house in Joplin MO to be our guest speaker. She'll talk about hiring for your haunt, character development and design, as well as acting techniques and safety.
Saturday night's Zombie Prom will kick off at 8pm, and the party won't be ending until every corpse has to crawl back into their grave. There will even be on-site printing of Prom Photos courtesy of Darkman. Along with a bag of secret prom swag for all those who come to party down. Six feet down!
Sunday, there'll be a catered breakfast provided by the folks at Middle of Nowhere, and a make-and-take of your own personal Necronomicon thanks to Bill Lash of Mr. Bills Thrills in Troy MO!!!! After lunch, we're loading up and heading into Kansas City for a pre-Halloween haunt shopping trip to wrap up the fun of Kreepfest until next year.
I remind you that Kreepfest is FREE. The only cost other than any vacation incidentals (gas, food, lodging) is if you want to purchase a kit for the Make-and-Take on Sunday.
:jol: REMINDER! :jol:
Please, please, take a few minutes to stop by the website at www.kreepfest.kk5.org (http://www.kreepfest.kk5.org) and click that 'pre-register' box.
"But I said I was coming on Facebook/on a Forum/In Person!"
I was thrilled to see/hear it, but it doesn't count unless it's in my mailbox. We use the number of actual pre-registrations to determine how much food to buy and how many prizes we'll need, so, please, RSVP as soon as you can.
If you can't access the site for some reason, just drop an e-mail to monevilizabeth@aol.com titled "PRE-REGISTRATION" with the following questions answered.
Are you coming Friday Night to the movie double feature?
Where are you going to be staying (so we can know where to drop off the 'Welcome to Kreepfest' bag.)
Are you going to be going to the shopping trip on Sunday?
Going to be at the Make-and-Take?
Because I know this is a hassle, everyone who pre-registers before July 31 will have a special gift waiting for them when they get there!
If you're not sure now, but then realize you can come at the last minute and want to show up, DO! You're more than welcome. But if you know beforehand, please, PLEASE pre-register so I won't have 50 hungry people there and only food for 10.
Thanks!
