Creepy Halloween Lodgings
by Steve West on October 20, 2008
These creepy places to stay during a Halloween vacation may be too late to consider this year but they're not going anywhere soon so keep them in mind for the future. You can't stay in all of these places but for those that you can, there's that extra layer of creepiness.
The Haunted Hull House in Chicago. Let's get out of here Raggy!
Nighttime tour of Alcatraz. That place is creepy enough in the daytime.
The Crescent Hotel and Spa Sleep in a morgue.
The Lizzie Borden murder house is now a bed and breakfast! Would you like your grapefruit in 40 or 41 slices?
Merry England. Birthplace of the Tower of London, Jack the Ripper, and the Berry Pomeroy Castle.

Christmas Post #11: Niche Market Dolls
In Waiting For Guffman, Christopher Guest play acts with his My Dinner With Andre action figures. That was the funniest moment of the film for me. I could see something similar happening with almost any of the dolls in this collection. Go »Tattooing's Last Frontier
Aside from internal organs, there doesn't seem to have been any body part un-tattooed except for the eyeball. Until now. Colored contact lenses weren't good enough for this guy and I really expect him to be the first guy with a spleen tattoo. Go »Santa Claus Can Kiss My Ass
That title is almost blasphemous in the American belief system, I know. We took the girls to a local ice cream store, Coldstone's, to get ice cream and to see and get a photograph taken with Santa. It occured to me that Santa gets a lot of credit for stuff that I do and provide. Go »Got Dem Sunday Shopping UOAS Blues
Weekly shopping or as it has become, my weekly stroll through Satan's marketplace. I consciously avoided UOAS's line and since there were only two lines, chose the one next door. Let's call this one Slightly Less Ugly On A Stick. Go »Dog Lovers Unite
Recent conversation with Brenda: Me: I watched the neighbor's dog for an hour the other day. Brenda: That was nice of you. Me: I let him off the leash and a cop came up to me a few minutes later and said my dog has been seen chasing a guy on a bicycle. Go »

I only learned a few months ago that Fall River (about 30 minutes away from me) was home to Lizzie Borden and that her house is still there -- pretty freaky stuff.
