It’s
essentially Halloween every day in Las Vegas – a city known for dressing up,
theme parties and self indulgence. So how does the city of extravagance push
the envelope this Halloween?
Think
zombie apocalypse, devilish spirits, ghost tours and haunted spots. Also, new
for 2012, a chilling soiree at Mandalay Bay joins the Halloween line-up to
satisfy all of its guests’ blood-hungry thirsts.
· Once You Check In, You Never Check
Out. For the first time ever, Mandalay Bay will host a haunted bash from Las
Vegas’ past with mega-party Haunted Hotel Ball, Oct. 27 from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.
Costumed partygoers can dance among Wolverine Elvis, Zombie Rat Pack and
Vampire Showgirls while enjoying the terror of a haunted house and the
exclusiveness of a hotel soiree. Outrageous, bizarre and risqué will be among
the Halloween costumes competing in the virtual costume contest.
