Drama Club Runs Haunted Carousel Fundraiser at Paragon

Outside of the carousel pumpkins, cobwebs, graves, and ghosts set the tone for a night of spooky fun.

This Friday the drama club hosted a fundraiser at the Paragon Carousel where students dressed in creepy costumes and took on the roles of scare actors. It ran for four hours from five to nine. The event was a success and was great fun for all those involved in it.

The horses on the carousel were designed to be expressive and realistic.
Greg Fish, Lucy Fish, and Griffin Blidner dressed up for the haunted carousel experience.
Sophomore Reese Warshaw dressed as Wednesday Addams.
Senior Audrey Jones dressed in a ghillie suit for the carousel.
The carousel had a fog machine that helped contribute to the spooky vibe of the evening.
The webbed perimeter of the carousel became more visible after the fog began to subside.
Kelsey Wightman and Chloe Hamilton dressed as escaped inmates with bloody makeup.
The woman who runs the carousel, Cindy, dressed in black with a skeleton shirt for the carousel.
For the final ride of the night, the students in drama club all rode the carousel.
Outside of the haunted carousel was a photo cutout board painted by the HHS art club.
