YOUth celebrate Halloween in Dungannon
Valerie Gillies
Lucknow Sentinel
Dungannon was a spooky
place to be over the Halloween
weekend as the YOUth group
camped out at the Seniors Cen-
tre Hall. Due to technical
difficulties, many of the other
buildings in Dungannon came
to the rescue, giving full access
to their facilities, as well,
including churches and the
school.
On Saturday, October 31,
2015, the YOUth group
staged a Spook House for the
community at the Seniors Centre
Hall. The upstairs was turned
into a maze with a bucket
challenge at the end
where attendees reached into
buckets to try to guess what was
inside.
The basement of the hall was
converted into a very dark and
scary haunted hospital with
many scary patients. Those who
braved the dark were given a
guided tour through the hospital
in search of the one patient who
needed to be saved. There were
lots of screams, non canned, but
the real thing. All sorts of
patients approached from all
sides from floor, ceil-
ing, counters, furniture and
even took their places in the
washroom. Those on
the tour were asked to open
closet and washroom doors to
look for the patient who needed
saving.
Following the Spook
House, the YOUth group was
joined by the community for a
potluck dinner at the Ad Hall. A
hot meal was enjoyed
after the YOUth group formed
a circle and sang a song that was
part of the theme for
their camping weekend entitled
"Waves of Oneness":
The Dungannon Lions
donated candy bags that
were given out by the
YOUth group as chidren were
leaving to begin their trick or
treating.
There were also two dances
over the weekend, the youth
dance on the Friday evening
and the adult dance on the
Saturday.
Even the washroom in the haunted
hospital in the Spook House in
Dungannon on October 31, 2015 had
an occupant, portrayed by Oreanne
Cardinal, waiting her turn as, almost
unseen in the dark, a fully black clad
spirit, AKA Austin Coulombe, rocks on
the toilet.

The feature dish at the Halloween Potluck at the Dungannon Ag Hall on October
31, 2015 was a pair of "feetloaf", as shown here with hungry YOUth group
member Ariana Rezaci.
The walls, floors and furniture were lined with "patients" in the haunted
hospital. In the dark, you could not see them, but could hear their moans and
calls while being touched, grabbed or poked. From left: Ahdieh Bimrew, Sarah
