Scary Contest!

THIS CONTEST IS CLOSED

I've never been a fan of scary things.

The scary movies I'm forced (or tricked) into watching I "watch" with my eyes discreetly cast to the floor. When I sense a something about to jump out, I conveniently notice that my shoe has come untied, or the Icee needs a good stir. I have no desire to feel a dead loved one's "presence" (or any dead person for that matter), mysterious "cold spots" in a room are the cause of badly placed vents and I don't think haunted houses are "fun." It's not so much that seeing a guy with a chainsaw makes me jump. It's the guy with a chainsaw suddenly turning it on behind me. I don't like being startled. I don't jump, scream and then laugh at my silliness. I get anxious and then pissed. I also don't like being touched by strangers (on all levels). I don't like it when the person behind me in the movie line is right on my butt, and so same goes for a zombie. I covet my personal space. Violate it and I get cranky.

That said, I understand that for many people, haunted houses are an enjoyable experience. So for those of you who enjoy a good scare, Miami.com is giving away passes to Nightmare: Ghost Stories, a new haunted house at Wynwood's SoHo Studios. It's an import from NYC, and they're all cutting edge, so it must be pretty good. The first 5 who reply to this blog post with "Scare my pants off, Miami.com!" get 2 VIP passes. The next 10 who do so get regular passes, which just means you don't get to go in the "express line." But really, half the fun is the anticipation.

Or so I've been told.
