When I was a kid, Halloween was more than just October 31st. It was a month-long celebration, and usually included a trip to a Haunted House and/or a local theme park in addition to trick-or-treating on Halloween itself. For the past 10 years, the Ocean Park theme park in Hong Kong has taken that experience and put it on steroids with its “Halloween Bash.” (h/t In Transit) This year is their 10th anniversary celebration, and they’re pulling out all the stops in the weeks leading up to Halloween.
Per the Halloween Bash website, this year’s festivities include 444 ghoulishly-costumed performers (why not 666?), a maze explored in total darkness, and a ride that simulates being shut into a coffin and pushed into a crematorium (presented by Yahoo, no less). I’d stay away from that last attraction if you’re claustrophobic.
Like all theme park food, I’m pretty sure the food at Ocean Park is grotesquely overpriced. But, at least they’re being creative about it: fare includes dishes like “Little Girls Drowned in Blood,” “Smashed Brains in Plasma” and “Kraken and Leviathan Massacre.”
Oh, and they also have laser tag. With zombies. So, what are YOU doing for Halloween?
Of course, October is over halfway gone, so if you want to spend Halloween at Ocean Park, you’ll need to get a fast passport. Generally, it takes about 6 weeks to get your passport back if you submit your application for normal passport processing. Pay an additional $60 for expedited processing, and you’re still stuck waiting 3 weeks-by which time the witching hour will have long since passed. Fortunately, there is a solution-fast passport processing from a Regional Passport Agency office or from a private passport expediting company such as RushMyPassport.
Both options can get your passport application processed in as little as 24 hours, but an expediting company is quicker and easier to use because there’s no need to make an appointment, wait in line, or travel to a regional passport office. And that means you have more time to worry about more important things-like your costume!
