Pirates & Mermaids, Take a Look at Haunted Bookstore 2015 Mini as the pit boss. Best part of the bookstore. The cutest little mermaid! Look at that tail! Aubrey with dad. Pirates can’t live on gold alone, cookies are essential. Riley photobombed by a balloon sword, but cute anyway! The family costume prize winners – if there had been a contest! Mermaids Sarah and Aubrey with pirate mom Lindsey! Party action. Sarah and her dad James made a great Pirate/mermaid team! Allie and her dad Lowell were a huge hit making balloon creatures. Thanks! A kidnapped Puritan, gone a little batty…aka Jill! Okay, this is my favorite part! Jelly fish craft, and a cute, big eyed pirate girl! A crazy pirate lady reading, or maybe the wicked witch. Way easier to shop for books before the store gets dark and spooky! Jake is ready for a dice game. Beware of sharks! Howard Wu shows some lesser known skills as a pirate musician. Jackie helping some royalty make jellyfish. The Three Buccaneers! Katie, Katrina and Joe. Thanks for the help! Courtney, the Pirate Queen! The potentially outlaw Phillips family, minus Mike Rowe. (I think he was off fixing something) The Pirate Hook Toss game. A little not-very-high stakes dice game going on. Pirates in action. Walking the plank – easier for chicks than mermaids it turns out. Celica arrived just in time to help, thanks Celica! Here’s a wide eyed listener! Hope those ghost stories were not too scary! Seaweed Dip anyone? Yes, Howard sounded authentically piratical.
