[Sponsored] Sentosa Spooktacular 2013

Sponsored

I'm back with another belated Halloween-related blog post.
Apologies for the late post. I have been really bugged down by my job commitment. 

Thank you Sentosa for inviting myself and my lovely plus-one, Valerie for this year's 
Sentosa Spooktacular at Fort Siloso! :D We had so much fun hugging each other and pulling each other from houses to houses at Fort Siloso that night. ;)


I realised as years pass, the culture of halloween gears towards another direction among the younsters. I remember my first halloween celebration where I went clubbing, dressed up as a sexy playboy bunny. (Not exactly sexy haha) As we grow up, we became more generous with our money and at the same time we became lazier to rent and dress up (for us of us at least). Thank goodness for Sentosa Fort Siloso that put together 5 Thai-themed horror walks for us.


(Pardon my photo quality as it wasn't convenient for me to bring along my huge cameras that night)


This year's Sentosa Spooktacular was themed on 5 of the scariest horror Thai movies in the recent years namely: Dorm, Pee Mak, Shutters, Coming soon and Body.

Spooktacular 2013 welcomed us with a grand entrance which resembled that of a cinema theatre.
It was innovative for the organizing committee to come up with the trailers of the 5 movies as an introductory opener. The open-aired setting anchors a feeling of uncertainty and anxiety in the visitors as we roamed helplessly through the rumoured-to-be-haunted location within Sentosa. 

Behind the red curtains were the walking deads who starred in the movie Coming Soon, hissing at the guests, and making some girls shriek at the entrance even before the trials started.

Watch out above your heads too! O.O



The scare zones were filled with nurses, faceless ghosts which have been asianized and made up as Thai ghosts.
  

Many many photobooths around.
  
The walk through Fort Siloso towards the haunted houses was engulfed with the smoky eerie atmosphere where the odd coloured rays illuminate the dead upon the dark environment.


First haunted trail 


The evil "ghosts" looked really possessed. Freaky to see them popping up at random corners here and there.

That's a teacher ghost caning a bleeding kid. Kinda mind-bogging. :/


I did not intentionally pose for this expression. Really slightly afraid of the possessed humans zombie-ing around that night.

Spotted a Chinese ghost!

Selfie of the kids from Ju-on. :O





I hated this!! Hanging dismembered bloody limbs all over the stairs!


:/


The horror trail of "body" had got 1 room that is filled with looooooooong black hair sprawling all over.
Really freaked me out while i passed by it. There was no way to turn back.

Entering the pee-mak zone.




Finally headed into the most terrifying horror house of "Coming soon". 



I hate such scenes in movies, let alone those explicit ones LIVE right in your face.

Fort Siloso is really a perfect place to hold Halloween horror trials as the rustic forest brought about a very realistic atmosphere you experience in movie theatres while watching horror shows. A random piece of white cloth hanging among the trees could do a good job in freaking people out already.

All in all, the trails with the highest scare level are Coming Soon, Shutters and Body. 
If you want a comparison between the Halloween experience at Fort Siloso and USS, I'd be honest to say that each has its own unique attraction. If you haven't been to any, don't miss them out again next year.


Looking forward to the next Halloween at Sentosa Fort Siloso in 2014. :D
