Visit the Haunted Slough

submitted by Liz Shelby

For the past 10 years, my neighbor, Marianne Sexton, a local artist, has created the Haunted Slough of Shoal Edge Court in my yard. She makes outstanding (and scary!) figures that are nestled in the trees wrapped in different colored lights. We began the Haunted Slough when our children were young to put the fun back in Halloween. It is free and our gift to the community. We would like to invite Allandale neighbors to come. It is held Halloween night from 7 – 10. If the slough is too spooky for the young ones, the “upper yard” has apple bobbing (on strings), glow in the dark sidewalk chalk and a homemade witch’s brew. For some pictures of previous Halloween’s visit www.mariannesexton.com and click on events. Location: 5604 Shoal Edge   Court (one block south of Allandale off of Shoal Creek)
