The Cinema: A Star is Born

(click to enlarge)

When you're a reporter, sometimes the news breaks fast and there's no time to shave or even iron your shirt. The news waits for no one. So when I heard I there's a hot new starlet in town for a big movie premier, I grabbed a hat and camera and zoomed out the door. But I was in for a shock. This hot new leading lady is not lady at all, she walks on all fours! She's an exotic animal, a Fennux. When I attempted to ask a few questions, she just jumped in my arms, purred, squeaked, and meeped. If only all stars were as cute and cuddly, my job would be so much easier.

The Cinema is an all mesh sim. Inside you can get free movie snacks, and journey through seven theaters in genres such as: SciFi, Romance, Horror, Film Noir, and XXX. All items on sale are new items created for the event from 80 different stores! I really wish this event lasted longer because October has been crazy busy for me. The Cinema tends to be crowded and laggy, so go in a low lag outfit. Cinema ends today. Run go check it out.

The limited edition 3D Fennux Grabber is free at the Cinema with group join. Go the Fennux sim to get the free Pick grabbers, collect all 5. I have been doing the beta of the fens. They are really cute. Public demo and dueling of Fennex will start the first of November. For more information, go to: Fennux.com

UPDATE: Public Beta of Fennux is now live. 11/5  Fennux.com

Halloween Burlesque

(click to enlarge)

Time for the sexier side of Halloween. Guerilla Burlesque's Halloween show is Wednesday Oct 31st at 11:45 pm SL. Be dazzled and amazed by the girl's clever costumes, concepts, stages, and live theater special effects. Come in your Halloween costume, but be low-lag and ready for live streaming music. The show is being held in a special Halloween theater that includes a cool haunted maze, very challenging. Can you find your way out? For more information go to: idlerogue.blogspot.com

For my outfit, I pieced together a look with "Halloween Burlesque" in mind. Included in the image are  two hunts I haven't mentioned before that have some goodies for the guys: DeadCool Fashion Event and tGk Stamp Rally. DeadCool's 13 Ghosts of Halloween Hunt is spread across the entire Halloween sim, and there is a second mini Haunted House Hunt for shoes. Many designers are all gathered in this one place for your Halloween shopping needs. For more information, go to: deadcoolhalloween.wordpress.com If you loved the Masks of Mystery Hunt at Gay Riveria, dont miss tGk Stamp Rally. The hunt is on the same sim as the adult Vitamen store. For more information and prize previews, go to tou-gen-kyo.blogspot.jp ...oh and one more thing. Why use a flying broom when you can whack your friends with a fighting broom instead? Check out this fun freebie at Tala's.

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

Though I know I should be weary, still I venture someplace scary.
Ghostly haunting I turn loose, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!

OMG guys, this is the most awesome Halloween costume from Death Row Designs! The head is a great likeness of Beetlejuice from the movie but it's slightly larger, so reminds me of a Halloween mask. I love it. When I made an appearance as Beetlejuice at "Resting Place," I was an instant celebrity. lol. It's Halloween done right. There are 2 mesh heads, normal and smiling, and also a skin texture version you can wear on your shape without the head.

Death Row has many excellent full avatars ready to go right out the box, and many accessories to help piece together a kickass Halloween costume. Keep checking the lucky chairs and slap those Midnight Mania boards. There is also a Mini-Hunt for 24 pumpkins with prizes from all the stores on the DRD sim. Some pumpkins are decoys, so if you find a empty pumpkin, keep looking. Death Row just announced a photography contest too. Swing by DRD and bask in the Halloween coolness.

The Ghost Hunters's Guide to Horror

Hi, the name's Raven. I hunt ghosts. For me everyday is Halloween, but when the sun dip low on the horizon and the leaves begin to fall, I get more work than I can handle. So many "dearly departed" come back to haunt the living. Maybe you guys can help me this year and go investigate areas with suspicious activity. Below is a guide of the current horrifying hot spots. ....Oh and more thing, if do you run into a ghost, dont try to handle it on your own.

Sometimes lucky like winning the Panda Hamster on the first spin, sometimes unlucky spending more Ls than I will admit to get the Grandfather's Camera, and even a failed attempt to wear girl's *MonCheri* SequinPants (*hopes there will be glam boy version in the future*).  Keep an eye on The Arcade Blog for the next round in December.

Elegance in All Hallow's Eve with a lovely dress that comes with a broom, pose tree, and pumpkin cart from World's End Garden as part of the RMK Halloween storyteller quest.

News Event: Halloween at RMK Gothic

Nobody throws a party like the talented folks at RMK Gothic. This is a "Must Do." It's not only just a Hunt for awesome prizes, its a Major Event with a lot of fun and games! You'll love it. Grab your partner and buddies and head over to RMK Gothic. You'll have a great time!

You begin your journey in the garden. Touch the storybook at the landing point for the HUD to start a quest to get back something very important to you that was stolen by a naughty spirit. Find the StoryTeller ghosts throughout the sim. Each ghost will send you on a quest. Some are easy, some take practice to get right (like skydiving), and some will have searching all over the sim tiny ghosts or pumpkins. There are 20 quests in all, each one is different. Once you complete a mission, you get a piece of what was stolen from you. 17 prizes are randomly dropped with gifts for girls and guys. And by the last quest, you will have earned a cool skeleton avatar! Dev highly recommends this event with two thumbs up.

Participating stores are:

LIKKA*HOUSE, ***Ambrosia***, NAMINOKE, NONKO ROMANKAN, AD Creations Doll House, nukunuku pocket, Lo*momo, :::Dimbula Rose:::, Down Down Down, :: c.A. :: chocolate atelier, World's End Garden, Wretched Dollies, poche, FROZEN NIGHT, WTG, Bubblez Design, Rotten Toe, +RokumeikaN+,  +Theater Chain+

BONUS: Devi's hunt tips:
1) Convert your avatar to the provided ghost one. You will be able to hunt much faster and combat sim lag since this is a hugely popular event and many people are there.
2) Take a friend, or make friends. Some challenges require two people to complete.
3) A wearable translator Hud will help you talk to non-English speaking people at the event.
4) If the sim is full, try coming in a less busy time such as 3pm SL.
5) If you run into trouble because of lag, go ahead and complete all quests. Use the white "POST" box next to the storyteller book at the landing. Be sure to keep your Hud! Event organizers will help you. Also the full skeleton is available on last quest.

Good luck! Have fun!
