Halloween Haunted Garage Ends in Tragedy

For most of us, a Halloween party means costumes, candy and a good time, but those attending the annual Halloween party left with only tears and potential sleepless nights.

Promoted as a kid-friendly take on the classic Haunted House, visitors were alarmed by the terrifying sounds and sights within. Groups of children, faces streaked with tears, were seen being led away to the protective arms of their parents.

Visitors to the Haunted Garage encountered a dark, fog-filled cavern and guided through a dark, webbed tunnel swarming with tarantulas, before being attacked by vampire bats.

A statement from Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) officials states that the garage will be quarantined for the next 24 hours while they assess the scope of the infestation and determine the source of the non-native species. Sources indicate that the attached residence may require demolition to eliminate the outbreak.

Several disturbed guests reported encountering a strange seated figure with glowing eyes, a horrific crime scene involving dismembered teddy bears, and being attacked by an eerie floating apparation.

Some of the more confused reports include glimpses of a freakish ape man, or perhaps a gorilla, living within the depths of the garage, but these have not been corroborated. Perth Zoo officials have been contacted and an investigation is pending.

Police are requesting that anyone with any information regarding these events contact the Crime Stoppers Hotline at…

A trip to the Gingin Gravity Discovery Centre

We took a trip out to the Gingin Gravity Discovery Centre. The highlight was the 11 story leaning tower where you can drop water balloons into an incredibly cratered sand pit below. There are lots of other science experiments to explore too. We followed up with a night walk to spot some of the local nocturnal animals. We ended the night looking through telescopes at some of the features of the night sky. Great fun!

RJ looks deep into the black hole simulator.

No Mum! Kids don't go down there! They'll be spaghettified!

LR and Dad push the Bernoulli Principle to its limits.

The mums get the exciting job of filling a bucket full of water balloons.

It's a very, very long way down -- about 11 flights of stairs.

The kids begin the onslaught. Balloon after balloon is dropped onto the zone of destruction below.

E gets a closer look at a butterfly's wings.

LR gets a microscopic view of another specimen.

The face of sadness... E won something in the raffle. LR did not. Life is just so very unfair.

RJ agreed with LR... It is SO unfair... or maybe it's just way past their bedtimes...

We all went out with flashlights on a night stalk to spot animals.

The Leaning Tower of Gingin teeters towards one of the domes housing the big telescopes.
