The evening started off with a hilarious fun class.
The First Move Stab, always a classic at parties... |
 |
Rapidly followed by the Wurlitzer Lurch, where everyone
ended up lurching down the hall looking like something out of Chiller. |
 |
And finally onto the Corpse Drag!
The story behind the routine is this: Man meets woman, man stabs
woman. Man summons Igor to come and help drag to corpse away, but as
they do it, the woman springs back to life again. Oh well, back to
the stabbing... |
 |
The class went down well, and by the end of it everyone was
screaming with laughter and panting with the effort of running around the
hall with a "corpse"!
If you look at the background, you will see the ground fog machine is
working. Throughout the night the whole floor was covered in fog,
which made dancing a very eerie experience indeed. |
 |
Clare and Dave turned up in fancy dress, and I must admit it
was a good effort considering that they moved house the same day as well! |
 |
Clare's necklace was actually made out of real razor
blades. Very nice effect, though I don't think I'd wear real razor
blades like that! The halo was barbed wire as well. I worry
about that girl sometimes, I really do.
Kids: Don't try this one at home! |
 |
The Evil Clones came dressed as David, which was very funny
- it takes a lot to throw David off his stride, but they managed it
superbly. Naturally these brothers were the winners of the fancy
dress competition! |
 |
The Evil Clones spend most of the night eating the sweets
and their fancy dress prize money. |
 |
Crispin turned up, looking very dapper, and spend a while
propping up the bar with Liz, who was similarly dressed. |
 |
The evening started to swing just after the class, then more
people came in throughout the evening and by the end of it the place was
packed. |
 |
David's fancy dress outfit was gory to say the least. |
 |
One of the men dressed all in black, with a black face hood
as well. All we could see of him dancing was his
hands!
Very disconcerting. |
 |
John dressed as a punk rocker, though I think the scariest
part of the disguise was when he was trying to be cute in the outfit.
DON'T DO IT!!! |
 |
I have to say though, I take my hat off to John for actually
succeeding in drinking a pint of beer while wearing the mask
Just goes to show - no matter what the obstacle, beer wins though. |
 |
I had to put this picture on the website - Lia was so
indignant again about not having a photo on there that there was only one
way to quieten her down.
Happy now, Lia? |
 |
Ah yes, beer.
We had a great bar in the hall for the evening which did a brisk trade,
and alcohol was dished out for "medicinal" purposes, of course! |
 |
John and Suzanne, getting used to married life now.
All going normally, apparently! |
 |
Christine, dancing with the 3rd place winner of the fancy
dress competition. |
 |
Caroline, dressed as Medusa.
Nice Asp... |
 |
John's outfit included a nice big thumb bandage, which
amusingly got stuck on and wouldn't come off later in the night. The
same could be said of his fake blood as well, which didn't quite come off
before he had to get back to work again. |
 |
The entry to the hall was disguised heavily. A large
canopy was slung overhead, with spiders and skeletons hanging from it.
There were also large "flame lanterns" as well, and also a
video wall of horror movies or people to browse through and ask questions
on. Remember "The Day The Earth Stood Still"? Loads
of that kind of memorabilia in there. |

Thanks to Revolution
