Looks like a good time was had by all and some great props were born! I wish there were haunt enthusiasts living close to me so we could do something like this.

Actually I'm seeing more and more Florida based haunters on the forums. Maybe over the next few years some of us could organize a haunter's weekend?

NW Florida? Panhandle?

Yup...west of Tallahassee...

Greencapt, that would be an awesome idea!

I'm gonna guess Marianna (which is what I thought when I saw "NW Florida")

You've got a PM, Torgen. Didn't want to hijack trishanne's thread!

GreenCapt, I think ones being organized as we speak.
I'll see if I can find the email and then I'll post it for you.

Sweet! I was going to start a thread, but it looks like Zombie might have moved some posts out of another thread and started one for us. Can we get a "roll call" of sorts of Florida haunters here at HauntForum?

I'm in the Florida Panhandle in a very small town between Tallahassee and Marianna. I'd be very interested in a Haunter's Weekend and would love to see what FE has heard about.

Here's one of the groups TampaHaunters group on Yahoo.
I'll try to get a link to it later.

TampaHaunters? I gotta look into this!

I'm located in Apopka,FL. That's about 10 miles outside of Orlando. Be nice if a HauntCon or anything of that nature happened around here! Hell, I'd be happy with a get together of like-minded home haunters period.

I'm in St. Augustine on the east coast- not only an old city but one that has something like three or four 'official' ghost tours and all sorts of haunted history. In fact I grew up in a haunted house, one that was written up in the book Amazon.com: Haunted Places: The National Directory: Ghostly Abodes, Sacred Sites, UFO Landings and Other Supernatural Locations (9780142002346): Dennis William Hauck: [email protected]@[email protected]@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/[email protected]@[email protected]@51E3K09Y7CL ! I wish I still lived there though.

Hi Torgen!
Hi Everyone!

Torgen invited me to join. I am also a Florida haunter. I have a backyard haunt in west central Florida. I have been considering putting out the word to see if anyone would be interested in a Florida get together. So you can imagine my excitement when Torgen mentioned this thread!

 

[Bone Dancer]

Welcome to the forum Ishwitch. You should post a note in the welcome room so we all can say hi. This is a great place, nice people and tons of info. Have fun.

 

[grapegrl]

Hi, everyone, and welcome, IshWitch!

 

[heresjohnny]

Florida haunting, hmmmmmm. Welcome IshWitch to the street. Don't worry, Zombie will move you to the welcome room soon.

 

[IshWitch]

I had a direct link to this thread and joined because just the thought is so wonderful!

I had to run out to help a friend whose car died and so ended up being logged in but not here for the past few hours.

I'll go "check in" now!

 

[DeathTouch]

Prettyghoul tells me that she has trouble with gators taker her props. Do you the rest of you have that problem?

 

[heresjohnny]

gators, yum!

 

[GreenCapt]

No gators at my place but we did have Hurricane trouble last year. Nothing like the Gulf coast thbough thank goodness!

 

[IshWitch]

We had hurricane trouble the past 2 years. Jeanne was quite the bitch!

I live high and dry (now, old place was near water) so the only thing we FL haunters really fear is the sun! It ruins latex. Fades props. Sucks when it is too hot. Especially for those of us that come from up north, every little bit of cool weather really sets us off!
(Am I right? Y'all? )
Never heard of a gator taking a prop, but if it did that'd make it fair game! Yum!

 

[grapegrl]

I know what you mean about the sun and props, Ish...it's usually still miserably hot and humid well into October even here in the northern part of Florida.
