We had to go and check out Jake's Club Resort's Haunted House or haunted maze as you will see. We had just been over to Jake's Zombie Land party, but didn't get a chance to see the spook house.

You enter and walk through a maze of delightful spooky things.

Each room has a theme or a purpose. Sometimes it takes you to the iconic haunted house themes and other times you will be sent outside into a graveyard.

Gorey, bloody and sometimes whimsical, the images dart out and disappear. The rooms are filled with gruesome creepiness, and it is all in good fun!

Baz Ceawlin is the builder here. He has done an incredible job of imagination and execution. Most haunted houses on the grid can be seen rather quickly, but this one took us an hour. We enjoyed each room and clicked on everything!

If you only have time for one haunted house, go check this one out. It is easy to navigate and loads quickly. Take a date and hold hands... because you will be scared! Boooooooo!

We stopped off at Jake's Club Resort to get a pre-Halloween party. Zombie Land was happening tonight with everyone dressed in ghoulish, bloody attire.


Jakes Club Resort Zombie Land Party

I saw entrails hanging out of bellys, slashed and ripped skin, missing eyeballs, and the walking dead.

Oh yes, FUN! There is never a want for a good time at Jake's parties. Each party is carefully built to fit a theme and everyone participates.

The pictures do not do justice as each avatar was dressed to kill! (Pun intended, lol!)

The weather is changing and our thoughts are with the upcoming holidays. Time for celebration and spending time with friends.

We headed over for a romantic time together dancing at Sphynx Jazz Club. DJ Pepper Quinote was playing a set of romance, jazz, and lounge music.

Boom Pony Music Club is a casual outdoor setting for live music. Tonight, we popped over for Maximillion Kleene concert.


I've been listening to Max for a long time and he never disappoints. Unadorned vocals with a banging guitar, Max is one of those constants on the grid.

Check out his facebook; he already has a gazillion followers and "Likes." Just search for Maximillion Kleene... and listen for his sweet voice!

From Kiran Sporg, owner of Boom Pony Music Club: "If music feeds the soul, Maximillion Kleene is the food of the gods. His dynamic musical range and smooth groove provide many a listener with a virtual buffet of auditory temptations. Max started his music career with formal study of piano at the Royal Conservatory but quickly realized that it was the guitar guys who got the chicks. By 19, he was seriously immersed to the very center of his musical soul in AC/DC and from there branched out to experiment with sounds that range from Pearl Jam to Foo Fighter."
