I have this idea that I have been needing to talk over with someone for weeks now but being "so far from Halloween" I don't get much help or feed back from friends/family:finger:.
I moved to my grandparents place. Grew up here, have always had big Halloween Parties! I will carry the tradition on. Hay-ride, Haunted House, and Weenie Roast. For Easter this year we had a huge event. Families came together and we scattered hundreds of eggs across the fields. The children and adults hunted for hours and had a great time!! When everyone was leaving I told them we'd see them all again for the next big holiday, Halloween! Jokingly I said "We'll hunt bodies next time though!"
Well, why not? I have some mannequin torsos I scored off of Craigslist and dumpsters. I have made some out of wrapping friends in tape, cutting it off, and filling the void with newspaper, buckets, and expanding foam. I can make a corpse! lol
So I have bodies to hide. I was thinking, "Why are we looking for them?" "Why are they hidden?" I was thinking maybe the bodies were murdered; they are all members of some organization or something and they have the keys to_____?????________. Well, my Mamaw had this thing where she wanted to lock up everything. She had pad locks and chains on everything from the extra fridge to the pantry, to the storage shed outside. She'd change the locks regularly. I've found at least six locks with keys that I can use for this project.
"What am I locking up?" "What were they protecting/hiding?" My first thought was "CANDY!" Then I was thinking maybe they were keeping the monsters inside the haunted house. That means we have to recover the keys from all of the members to unlock the haunted house. Cant do the haunt till we find all the bodies. Sounds like a good idea to me. But "WHO/what/why?" Why were they killed and scattered? What is the point to all of this?
I need help with a story!
No pirates or aliens. I want it to be realistic within today.
I plan on hiding a body in a shallow grave wrapped in a tarp behind the tank damn, Hanging one from a tree, One in the corn maze, Maybe one in the trunk of a junk car that's out there and bury one on a casket I build in a cemetery I create. Maybe a clever tombstone for that one.
We can lock up anything or several things. Originally I was going to build a chest, lock and chain it up so that it couldn't be opened without every lock unlocked. Inside goodie bags of candy and prizes...then I thought the children will fight over it all. grrrrr
I'm open to explore almost any idea!
