The Thriller Challenge

Just in case you didn't know, Halloween at my library is a big deal. Because I make it a big deal. My Teen Advisory Board has planned 'killer' Halloween celebration programs for the past four years: Alien Autopsy, Monster Mash, The Book Drop Demon Library Wing, and finally The Thriller Challenge. I think this year was by far my favorite! Participants got a Thriller Challenge passport as they entered the door. They were then challenged to collect stamps for their passports by doing as many activities as they could stomach including the Killer Buffet, Crawly Creature Touch, the Scary Cemetery, Tombstone Treat (craft) and the famous Michael Jackson Thriller Dance. Pictured above are the teens in the Scary Cemetery. They made several children scream in terror as the Grim Reaper sliced open our Michael Jackson impersonator! Great fun!
