SCREAMFEST

By: Madison Dutily

BOO! Did I scare you? Well that's what happened to some of our Wood Hill students on October 13. Mr. Defusco took some kids from our school on an Outing Club trip to Canobie Lake Park for Screamfest. We arrived at 6 p.m. As soon as the gates open students fled into the park. Mr. Defusco told attendees our meeting spot and what time we needed to be there. And just like that we were off to the haunted houses as one big group. The first haunted house we did was the haunted hotel. After walking through the dark maze of ghouls and goblins, we went to the circus clown house. There were bright flashing lights, spinning rooms, and spooky clowns. As soon as the kids saw the exit from the haunted house they ran in terror. After a few haunts it was time for some rides. We split up into small groups and spread around the park. There were calming rides, rushing rollercoasters, tricky games, and more! After a few hours of frights and fun we went on the ferris wheel as a calm end to our fun night. And just like that we were on the bus ride home, ready to sleep in on the long weekend.
