Year of Courage: Haunted Corn Maze

October..... The creepiest time of the year. Earlier this year I did a scary movie for something for me to overcome. So, if you know that I don't do scary movies you know very well that I don't do anything haunted. I am not big of haunted houses or corn mazes. I have never been to either one because they are not my thing. So, October was one of the easiest things I could pick out for the year cause there is a whole month dedicated to scary things. Thus, why the haunted corn maze. 

Now since I don't do scary movies I had a fun time trying to figure out a Halloween related movie that was not actually that scary, and since I already had used Hocus Pocus earlier I knew that I could not do that one. Alaina helped me out with that one and suggest Boo! A Madea Halloween.

To which I thought was perfect! I mean this movie had one jump scare that only got you if you are easily scared, like I am. However, it's hilarious and a good way to detox if the haunted maze was too much. 

So, here is was happened. 

Like the scary movie, I got some help from my friend Austin. This time we took more people with us on our adventure! Dakota, Austin's little brother, and Will, Austin's best friend, joined us. This ended up being way better because none of us had ever done a haunted corn maze. So, everyone was going to experience this for the first time. 

I was totally fine on the way there. We were joking and cracking up for the 40 minute drive, no problem finding the place or anything like. It's was after we bought the tickets, and were standing in line that is started to get to me..... 

The same reason I don't like scary movies is the same reason I don't do haunted houses. I HATE jump scares. I STILL don't understand the point of paying good money to be scared. WHO ENJOYS BEING SCARED! 

Anyways, We are standing in line hearing people screaming in the far off distance, chainsaws going off everywhere and I am dreading my choice.... I willing jumped 14,000 feet out of plane in August but I can't handle a haunted corn maze... go figure. We are finally allowed to go in. We turn the first corner and a man in a Jason mask comes out of the corn to which I scream terribly loud and back into the three boys... I feel like I am not going to make it through this before I start to cry.

We go through I few more turns and nothing scares me too bad. Then we run into the nice couple that was in front of us in the line. They had a way better flashlight than we did and they let us follow them and work together to get through the maze. As soon as we got the better flashlight it was so much easier to get through the maze. Cause with the corn you can hear where people are walking through and you shine in that direction you catch them before they catch you.... that is if you are at the front of the line.... which the boy were not...

This my friends.... is how the scary people in the maze left me ALONE!!! 

These three boys... the same boys who love scary movies, the ones who love scary video games... can not handle clowns..... Everyone in this maze was  clown of some sort!!! I would see them coming I was try to warn them, they would not hear me and get scared and I would laugh every single time! We got to one point were several of these guys, one with a chainsaw, came around all sides and cornered us. The boys are screaming! I am laughing my butt off so hard I want to fall on the ground! That is when I realized that all of the masked people realized I was laughing and left me alone, they let me get by easily, they tormented the boys longer than me and finally let them pass.

This goes on the whole time and I am laughing the whole way to through. That is until we get past stopping post 8. We turn the corner and there is this guy in this bloody, gory, mask... giving out high fives. He keeps saying "you're doing great I am trying to send out good vibes, you guys are almost out your doing great". We turn the corner and see this tunnel. I am like ok, there are scary people in the tunnel, there is gonna be a chainsaw it's gonna be great. So, I am preparing myself when I hear from behind me the same guy say "I'M SO SORRY...." then he started a chainsaw behind us, the guy in the tunnel started a chainsaw, there was another guy right when we got in throw his bloody arm out with a fake knife... THE HAPPY GUY LURED US INTO A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY! 

It was BRILLIANT! It was pure evil, and genius, and I am so mad that I was so impressed with his evil plan. 

I have to say that it's was so much fun because I wasn't one being scared the most. Would I go do it again, sure but I'm not gonna be the one to plan it. If someone else want's to go then I might go but I don't think that is going to be a yearly thing for me! 

Because I was scared I didn't get any videos however, Dakota got a few Snapchats that I got from him to share a little bit of the experience.

However, this one is the after we made it out of the maze! Yes, I did thank the scary man for a good time and he waved to us!
