Movie World Brisbane Australia – Fright Night Review

September 25, by Shellie Wilson.

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.

An Easy Scarf to Use Up All Your Scraps

If you’ve been around here long, you know that I’m in a perpetual battle with my stash. I feel like I haven’t bought yarn in years unless I needed it for a specific project. I knit fairly a lot, and crochet some, too, but it feels like my stash never gets any smaller.

It’s not just the unused balls of yarn that are a problem. In fact, maybe a bigger issue is all the odd balls and leftover bits that seem to pile up without any effort. Even though I love scrappy projects (and knit a whole sweater dress with scraps earlier this year) it still feels like a never-ending quest to use up all the little bits.

So I’m always on the lookout for good patterns that are made to use of the extra bits of yarn. If they are super easy, too, that’s so much the better.

So it is with the Lalu Scarf by Sheena Stone. This any yarn, any gauge pattern is designed to use up whatever scraps you have on hand (assuming they’re mostly the same weight or can be held double to make the same weight). 

It’s a tube scarf worked in the round, and she specifically notes that she works it outside in, so the back of the scarf is on the outside as you knit. The needle tips are on the part of the circle farthest away from you as you knit.

It also has an attached I-cord edging, which sounds really time consuming but does give the edges a nice, finished look.

The way the colors are changed as you knit you don’t really need a lot of each color. It would probably be good if you had at least enough of a color to complete one round, but you can change colors more often than every round if you need to because you’re using all your tiny bits.

Grab the free pattern on Ravelry.
