Chasing Amy: Locust Pocus

Picture-22

Tricks! Treats! Tricks giving out treats! In this edition of Chasing Amy, we follow Lady GuGu to the edges of a land of terrifying nightmares, (Hallo)Wynn Commons.

Arriving at the ghoulish tent, we pass tray upon tray of spoOoOoOoky cookies and scream in terror at the decorations. Is that really a witch flying around the ceiling? I think that caravan of slutty gypsies is in one of my recitations! Eek! Boo! Hiss!

But the adventure just begins here. Continue on, brave readers – if you dare!

Making sure not to get our fingers bitten off by the t-t-t-terrifying skull! Yikes!

Pleading for our lives with this witch! (We're Facebook friends now, so it's all good.)

In a sea of evil, a head of pure golden goodness emerges. Could it be – AMY...!?

It is! It Is! It is Amy! Fear turns into joy, and the sight of the Penn Quaker reminds us that this evening of frights was well worth it. And, having nommed countless cookies and seen our one true love, we leave with happy hearts and a plastic raven decoration. (Hey, it was practically begging to be taken.)

We've seen her deep in the heart of West Philadelphia; we flew to Paris to catch of glimpse of her; and now, we've braved the pits of Hell to find her. But we wonder: Where will our relentless search for Amy lead us next? Stay tuned and find out!
