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