I'm standing in front of the ticket booth waiting to get my ticket when suddenly there is a scream! High above me a car has come detached from the Ferris wheel! It plunges toward me and I jump aside as it crashes into the ground inches from my feet! I reel in shock, my heart pounds in my chest and I realize I have arrived at....
THE CARNIVAL OF DOOM!
Begin at the booth where you'll be given a ticket/HUD to wear. You must wear the hud to participate. (Newbies, find the hud in your inventory in the objects folder, left click on it and choose wear, and you're good to go.) The HUD looks like a rough, yet charming backwoods voodoo doll that sits on the upper right side of your screen. A warning about the COD-Carnival Of Doom, you can and will probably sustain damage, you may even die! Not to fear, death is only the beginning at the COD, but I'll let you discover that for yourself. Ready? Let's go!
What's a carnival without cheesy rigged carnival games? That's part of what we come for right? The COD has all kinds of them! Interesting and interactive, you can play alone or with a friend and you may even win a prize or two if your ah..., lucky?
Ditto for the rides. Hop on the merry go round and you'll find this machine can move! Spinning faster and faster, you realize the fun's going to last a "virtual" lifetime; five minutes or more. But, don't even try to get off until the ride is over or something really really bad will happen to you. No, really, something bad, it's bad.
Hungry? There's plenty to eat! You'll find all the old favorite familiar carnival foods. Vendors offer everything from hot dogs, to slushies except..., you may want to wait to get home to eat. Everything, and I mean everything, you do here has consequences, most of them unpleasant, Did I say bad?
After you've recovered from your little food experience, you might want to check out the other great exhibits and adventures the COD has to offer. There is the Freakshow, where you can see various mesmerizing monstrosities, a store where you'll find interesting novelties, the fortune teller who will give you "good" advice and of course, a haunting haunted house.
If you do "kick the bucket" during your explorations, no worries, you'll be instantly transported to the Carnivals own and now my, particular interpretation of hell. But that's a whole other story!
At first glance the carnival may seem like a place of campy horror, it gets a darker edge to it when you get past the meat and down to the bones. Notice the details.
Neon lights in a derelict food cart flicker on and off, for no apparent reason other than to create a sense of dread. Look closely at the carousel horse on the merry go round, and see the expression of sheer terror frozen forever on it's face. Tour the haunted house and find a room that's just a bit more disturbing than fun.
Humorous and definitely creepy, the Carnival Of Doom is every ones kind of fun and a real treat! Bring your whole posse for a few chills, spills, a rockin good time and see for yourself. I dare you. It's an experience you may never forget.
Ever.
