"We are home to nationally-acclaimed haunted houses – where many visitors make it a Halloween tradition to go in the evenings. America Haunts, a nationally respected industry authority, picked the Beast in Kansas City as the best haunted attraction in 2019," said Amber Arnett-Bequeaith, aka the Queen of Haunts. "We'll have some of our more social cast members out during the day – from a werewolf, to clowns, to the iconic witch. People love to have their selfies with cast – no matter their ages!"
The Festival of the Full Moon street events happen every First Friday weekend and highlight the month's moon. October is the Hunter's Moon from the hunts of Native Americans – a typical bountiful month. The West Bottoms is a great place to hunt something unique - often with a backstory. The thrill of the find and its story either added to your décor, your things, or worn evokes a special meaning - the opposite of mass-produced.
Festival of the Full Moon will have a new theme each month. Upcoming events include:
November's "Blessings in the Bottoms," and December's "Balls in the Bottoms". Each will have music, entertainment, food specialties, and co*cktails that fit the theme. The co*cktail this month is the West Bottoms' spin on the Soul Taker.
