A Classic City Fanciful Twist Celebration

And JUST Before The Witching Hour Itself...



Hurry up, hurry! We're going to be late!
Oh and as always, What do we wear? The black or the gray?
Does it matter? They're both boo-tiful!
Where will this here party be?
Everywhere and nowhere...
Here we go, down in a hole
And up to the house.
Always creep, be quiet as a mouse ... !

Did that sign we pass say DEAD END?
Remember your tokens to get in.
She may look friendly, but she's a scream,

And did her jar say Vanishing Cream...
Oh yes indeed, and away you'll go
if one of the skulls you do not show!



Turn Back, it says, is it too late?
Hurry up, girl, it's half past eight!





Don't we know them? Oh, don't we --?
WE never tell who WE may see!


And here is a --- eek!



It's only a bride whose groom did not show.
What happened to him,
We'll never know.



Hang on to your broom,
Another place, another room?
You might think twice about going up there
You can't really mean that, there is really no scare..........................


I hope you have enjoyed this and yours as much as I have. Thank you Vanessa of A Fanciful Twist for this invite and chance to party!
I almost got waylaid today and this is up just before midnight of the party, seriously.
Lots of shenanigans -- of the regular kind going on...
I hope to see you here next week at the Mad Hatters 2nd Annual Tea Party.
Take care.
Candace in Athens.

What a start I had from that last guest. I would *never* go up those stairs! I love the ladies, especially the one with the "octopus" skirt. (Well, the gal with the striped stockings is really quite cute. She might be my favorite.) Thanks for visiting me. Jeanne

Lovely party Candace! I love your ghosty, witchy ladies and your bride with her scary book! The wolf nearly made me spill my drink but once we got chatting I found he was quite nice!
