Brooks transforms into haunted house

Residence Life Association teamed up with the CSC Plainswalkers Society and CAB to host Bloodcurling Brooks, Saturday night. The event lasted until midnight, with 343 people attending and over 20 volunteers operating the event.

Groups of up to five people ventured through the haunted dorm, first walking down to the dorm’s elevator on the first floor while passing different characters trying to scare the attendees. At the end of the hallway, the group members then had to travel from the first to the third floor in an elevator with a clown. Upon reaching the third floor, groups made their way through the rest of the hallway and down the stairs to the zombie hunt.

During the zombie hunt, a Plainswalkers Society member provided a Nerf gun and ammunition. After proceeding down the hallway, groups descended the stairs to the final part of Bloodcurling Brooks: snacks and refreshments.

In the basement, cupcakes were provided for participants to decorate. There was also an arrangement of different sodas and snacks to choose from.

Taylor Osmotherly, Residence Life’s associate director, said that planning this event was a process. In order to make this event happen, multiple people from maintenance, the administration and lawyers had to give their approval.

“We started planning mid-September and continued to work on it up until the day of the event,” Osmotherly said.

Osmotherly also gave credit to Anthony Zimny, Samantha Merrill and McKenna Jones, along with a handful of other volunteers for making their “creative ideas into realities” and helping make this event successful.

“Because of the great turnout and positive feedback from students, we may possibly put on an event like this again in years to come,” Osmotherly said.
