The following pictures are what detail (or at least what I can remember of) the Haunted House Party at Wes' - October 28, 2000.

 

Here, CircleK tests his fate by taking a picture of me eating.  Note the look of death.  

...and then right afterwards, he hands me his camera to be taken with the cute waitress who kept on asking him what country he was from (circlek kept saying he was a foreigner)

Yes, this is what I brought to the party (and this is only half of them) - 1200 jello shooters - gone in 2.5 hours.  That's four gallons of vodka right there.

... and of course.. my pal Doctor Dave couldn't be out done and brought in these beauties.. I don't know what's in them.  But maybe it was better that way.  He also brought in some nitrous cartidges to make everyone smile :)

Todd really outdid himself with this borg outfit. I didnt' even know who he was.

CircleK thought she was a hottie fairie. I have to agree. Her costume kicked ass.

Here is a pic of the Reverend and CircleK re-enacting the fight scene from their own weird imagination. I don't remember a scene where an evil preacher and death DIDN'T get along.

The Reverend Maynard and I wanted to do some sort of prom picture since I never got to attend my own. Of course, he has to screw it up with his own ideas on what a prom picture should look like.

So CircleK complied with the prom pic also and other than the sword (and of course the obvious costumes) we are a dead ringer for any other mentallly unstable prom couple

here we all are - ready to imbibe even more shooters (we got rid of a tray before we even left the house) and the reverend was especially looking forward to pushing his ill ideas on complete strangers.

I really like this staged action shot. Death looks like he is posing for his very first school picture (minus the sword), the reverend looks like he is getting somewhere with those hands and I am desperately trying to hide the look of shock that he might get there.

Onward to the party.. this is Jennifer and Stephanie. The hostesses of this evening. Jennifer made that outfit herself and I wish there was a better picture to see all of it - in the words of a gay man "it was simply dazzling."

This is me and Stephanie. I think this one was taken later on at the party. You can always tell as my wig will ride higher and higher on my forehead until someone finally hugs me too hard and it falls off (yes, and that happened too later on - much to my embarrassment)

This is Gino Vaselino (yes it says that in the phone book, too). I am glad someone got a pic of him as the Ladies Man. He was even more obnoxious than usual and for this costume he even stuffed cotton up his nose to get the full black man face effect. Very creative.

Here we see the full effect of the jello shots as well as what happens when the Reverend brings his own bar in a suitcase (readily available for most people who asked). I really liked the horns. They say so much.

Here is a scene from the front of the party. It looks a lot like the one i took at the gala - except that circlek knows how to use his camera :). Over 300 people were in attendance.

wow.. i haven't seen Janet in ages. I used to hang out with her a lot and then we sorta drifted apart. I also don't know what that look is in my eye, but that's not the way I usually smirk. However, the Reverend always looks like that (minus the horns)

Here Wes is exclaiming that the haunted house is finished if anyone would like to take a tour.. oh.. and could someone please shove a shooter in my mouth.

Then Wes got into his costume and got really trashed. Stephanie is reaping the benefits. (btw: she is dressed as a black and white movie star)

It was getting kinda cold in my outfit (go figure) so I changed out of it.. and by that time I was at my shooter limit and was holding on to stephanie for support.
