 It was finally back! After a 2 year wait with a couple of mini events sprinkled in between, it was back to Long Beach for Midsummer Scream!  The first indication on how much the event has grown were the ads in the lobby.  Click that code to get your Delusion tickets!!!  Our first stop in this update (not our first stop at the event) was the Museum of Halloween. Video walkthrough is below.  We really enjoyed this and can only hope it not only comes back in future years, but expands.  
 So much cool stuff to see (and for us older folks, remember)    Let's head to the show floor. We could have spent SO MUCH money here. They're going all in for Shaqtoberfest!  Cannot wait for the Haunted Hayride!  Lots of little Halloween touches everywhere
 Even the Pizza Planet Truck got a Halloween makeover  The best investment at any Con, or Fair  They've even got stuff for those of you who love plants  I tried to think of the most harmless thing  So much unbelievably cool artwork. We got this for our oldest.
 The event however wasn't without it's hiccups, as all large events have. Saturday was easily the busiest we'd ever seen the event. And the lines to get in, and for the HHN panel were outrageously ridiculous. But the panel itself went off without a hitch. You can see our live-stream of the panel below, as well as our full breakdown of the HHN Panel here.  Saturday Night was the Deadly Disco, so we stopped by to join in on the fun!   So fun seeing everybody in their scary best getting down with some spooky music (once the DJ stopped playing Reggae and realized their audience was there to party down)  Of course, for us, the heart of Midsummer Scream is the Hall of Shadows  It really gets our happy little Halloween hearts ready for 2 months of scary fun
 So much great stuff on display   Clown Town has been added to the list of SCV Haunts!    Some of the lighting in these mini haunts and displays is simply amazing. And they do all of this in about 1 1/2 days.  Until next time Midsummer Screamers! Related Videos
Related Updates Last week we finally made it out to the Los Angeles Haunted Hayride and a great return to the town of Midnight Falls. This years event is in a new location, but it seems much bigger this year. Written by Gregg Condon  The event has really outdone itself in creating the fictional town of Midnight Falls and creating a fantastic Halloween festival within that town. And even if you don't want to do the Hayride or the mazes, you can still go into the "town" to enjoy the townsfolks, the shows (featuring the amazing Monte Revolta) and of course lots of food to enjoy. We truly had a great time at this years event. Don't miss it! But get there early, parking in Griffith Park is always "fun".   Our first stop of the night was the Hayride itself. This seemed to be a bit shorter this year length-wise, but scene wise we think there were actually more. There's just more room for the event in this location and it serves the hayride very well.  Would love to drive through the hayride in this classic pickup!  We highly recommend the VIP, this can get completely full on weekends.    Lots of amazing show scenes!    And of course, clowns!  Some fun photo-ops sprinkled throughout the event  The event also features three mazes, Trick-Or-Treat, Dead End Diner and Midnight Mortuary  I think Dead End Diner was our favorite this year!  Trick-Or-Treat is always fun! Be sure to ring all the doorbells and say Trick-O-Treat!  And lastly, we have Midnight Mortuary where creatures throughout Midnight Falls have taken over a bit.  We really loved the event this year, and it's great to see the theme of the Hayride grow each and every year. We hope it continues to expand for years to come!
