Movie World Brisbane Australia – Fright Night Review

September 25, 2014 by Shellie Wilson

10717808_10203958523296491_453731329_n

Wednesday night we attended the VIP Launch of Movie Worlds Fright Nights. Let me just say Totally Freaking Awesome! The attention to detail in theming this event was amazing. DO NOT TAKE CHILDREN!

The Zombies: These zombies get a write-up all of their own. They were gross, the would twitch and scream and sneak up behind you. This my friends is where Nightmares are created!

The Food: We ate dessert from specimen bottles and spaghetti out of the inside of a man coated in blood and gore. I must admit I got a little squeamish eating salami meats off the skeleton as that somehow that just tipped me over.

Cocktails were served in blood bags from an authentic looking Paramedic van and the red blood fondue with a back drop of blood platter was great. The pus filled donuts were yummy too.

The Scary Stuff: Ok if you survive the Zombie smoke filled walkway, then try your hand at the Wolf Creek 2 Maze or the Evil Within Maze. Either one is sure to make you poop your pants. (Make sure you go toilet first).

The first maze we hid behind a chain of people as we were attacked and screamed at  by various spooky people. I can not put into words how S*** scary this was! If you love a good horror film then this is the event to come to.  By the time we lined up for the Wolf Creek 2 Maze (our 2nd maze for the night) my husband thought it would be best if I went on the end to protect his butt. He spent 90% of the maze with his head down chanting “This is just a game” ,  “This is just a game”.

I spent most of my time telling him to look up, which he did at the exact moment the Chainsaw wheeling John Jarrett look alike came at us. My husband didn’t trust me from that point on.

When Can You Go: Friday’s and Saturday Nights in October

What’s on:  Fright Nights 2014 will host four new mazes, the introduction of entertainment precincts and themed food and beverage options as well as the parks signature rides and attractions ARKHAM ASYLUM, GREEN LANTERN Coaster, SUPERMAN Escape, and BATWING Spaceshot open from 6pm-9pm and SCOOBY-DOO Spooky Coaster and all other Fright Nights attractions operating until 10:30pm.

What to wear: You can wear dress-up but you are not permitted to wear masks or heavy makeup. Make sure you don’t have all bits hanging either or you might not get on the rides.

How Much? Tickets are as low as $29.00 and free if you have the gold pass.

Coffee Cozy Knitting Patterns

During the summer (which is what it is where I am writing from) I like to share patterns for things that you can knit and use even when it’s warm out. And sometimes they are things you can use when it’s cold, too, like this collection of coffee cup cozies. Because hot coffee is a must almost any time of year. 

This simple pattern form Darling Jadore is a great one for beginners and could be a good first knitting in the round project. It uses worsted weight yarn and includes video tutorials if you need extra help. 

If you want a perfectly plain cozy that you can jazz up with your own designs, check out the Base Doodle Cup Cozy from Jamie Lomax. This free pattern on Ravelry comes in two sizes (short and long) and is meant to be used with her doodle charts to make it your own. You could also keep it plain, add stripes or design your own motifs to stitch on it. 

Most coffee cozy patterns that I see are just sleeves meant to go over travel mugs, but what if your mug has a handle? This pattern from Stacey’s Knit Wits has an I-cord loop and button so you can use it on a mug with a handle or a travel cup. It uses DK weight yarn.

Coffee cozies are a fun way to play with stitch patterns and learn new techniques. If you’ve never knit cables before, this cozy from Purple Wool Co. would be a great first cable project, as it features simple braided cables all the way around. It uses worsted weight yarn and is worked in the round. 

Try double knitting to make an extra-insulating coffee cozy with this pattern from Tracy Leming. It includes little color changes so you can get the concept of how double knitting works on a small scale. It also can include a little pocket for a tea bag if you want. This one uses worsted weight yarn and is a free pattern on Ravelry.

Or try stranded knitting with the Love in the Air cozy from Danielle Thuen. It features hearts of different sizes and is worked in sock yarn. You’ll need to make sure those floats are nice and loose so it will stretch to hug your cup. You can find this pattern on Ravelry. 

They’re also a fun way to add a bit of flair to an otherwise plain cup. KnitnKaboodle Designs has this lovely leaf-shaped cozy pattern, which you could use for hot or cold beverages by changing up the fiber you choose (that’s pretty much always true). It is made in pieces that are stitched together and can be worked in a single color or choose different colors for each leaf.
