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