So exciting!!!

[Jen K]

I found a good one for the eyes but am open to any! One of my current reads works for explosion but that is it.

To be expected when you are ghost hunting - good thing we are tough!

[Jen K]

Yeah, I probably wouldn't do that well if I really saw a ghost...

Jen K wrote: "I found a good one for the eyes but am open to any! One of my current reads works for explosion but that is it."

Wow I was just thinking the eyes would be super tough so if you have something for that - it'd be great.

I have something for #1 and #4 but could probably find something for #3.

[AliciaJ]

I'm reading something that fits for #4, but I can find something for one of the other tasks if needed.

Mannequin ghost:





Mayhem emerged from a wall vent at the Stonebrook Theater and attacked a janitor, tossing him around the room. Jonathan, the theater manager, screamed scaring him off. The team has been called in to investigate the scene. Team member 2 finds a Hyper-Ionization Device in one of the rooms. Team member 4 enters the laundry room and finds it filled with mannequins. Thinking that the room is full of nightmares, team member 4 turns around to leave. One of the mannequin heads turns slowly, then it follows the team member around the corner. The team member turns around and sees the mannequin. The team member decides to quickly enter the Wardrobe room and close the door. The mannequin chases the team member and kicks a hole in it. Its eyes are glowing red. Can the team defeat it?

I think we all said yes, we'll keep going.

[Jen K]

Thanks Catsalive for checking us in!

For Mannequin ghost, I'm going to start a book for -#3 Read a book with a janitor- as that seems less popular. I hope that works for Alicia too.

I start my 3 night river cruise on the Nile/ tour early tomorrow. I *think* I will have online access but in case not, I should be read and posted by Monday. Happy weekend!

[AliciaJ]

I'll do #4, if that works?

I can probably find any except #1 at the moment.

[Danielle Gypsy Soul]

I'm out of town for a couple days and the only books I have with me fit #3 or #4 so if possible I'd like one of those two. Unless singing in a choir performance counts in which case I also have something for #1 but the MC isn't a "famous singer" he teaches singing and sings in a choir.

[AliciaJ]

I can do #1, I can always find a good rock star story 😊

[Jen K]

My current book works well for #3 and 4 also. @Catsalive, if you don't mind finding MAYHEM, would this work for everyone?

#1 AliciaJ
#2 Catsalive
#3 Danielle Gypsy Soul
