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