Date Night Frights
Friday, September 26, 2008 at 05:57PM
OK, weary couples. Tired of the same ol' movie and dinner date night? I have an idea for you: Knott's Scary Farm. Nothing brings a couple together like a good fright! Before you scoff, consider this: Men love to have an opportunity to show their bravery. And girls, doesn't it make you find kinda special when your fella puts his arm around you and gets you safely through Axe Murder Manor?
Knotts has long lead the amusement park pack during Halloween time. And this year is no exception. Because I have always been too chicken for such pursuits, L.A. Parent graphic designer Dean Gojobori bravely picked up the gauntlet to hit opening day on Sept 25. "That was fun!" was the overwhelming sentiment.
He cautions that the attraction isn't suitable for little goblins under 13 (although the younger visitors got a gentler treatment from monsters), and some of the seven shows, 13 mazes and three scare zones include some scantily clad characters and off-color humor.
But for grownups trying to scare up a little excitement in their relationship? A killer-good time.
