Ghoul Makeup

A normal ghoul makeup is just a quick air brush. the makeup artists normall put a dark color under the eyes and dark over the "worry lines" in your forehead. Then each artist does something different. One artist may want to do vains. another may want to make you ghostly white. others love to put blood on. The blood is made of Karo Syrup with red food coloring and corn starch that has all been heated to make it thick. The average ghoul makeup only takes about 5 minutes to get done.

The Haunted Castle Tragedy

I have recently read the book, "Doorway to Hell: The mysteries and Controversies behind the Haunted Castle Fire." This book told of how 6 Flags Great Adventure once had an attraction called the Haunted Castle where actors would dress up as "creatures of the night," and scare the guests that came through.It was built in 1979 and on May 11th 1984, the cstle cought fire and 8 teenagers perished. A group of 9 entered the Haunted Castle for the last 'go through' befor the fire. That means only 1 person made it out. In this book, the survivor tells of her friends last ill-fated momets.


"Judging by where the bodies were found in the maze, Suzette

concluded that Joey Beyroutey was knocked unconscious, and her two

other friends and the five other boys had become so disoriented, that

they actually went towards the fire."


This book also tells of of the after math of this horrific event and how (in some oppinions) the park mocked the event. They put up vertual games such as "Castle Escape" where guests would put on 3-D glasses and have to ecape the vertual burning castle.


The fire was started by a lighter that one of the workers was using to light his way down the long corridor toward the strobe lights. He ended up bumping into and igniting a foam rubber wall peice.


The book is very entertaining and i recomend it greatly. it's fasinating and very informational.
