Witches and devils on the loose at Siam@Siam.
Staff Reporters
Early rain gave everyone a scare, but once the sun went down, it was
ghouls and goblins, not flood waters, that filled the streets for another
colorful Halloween in Pattaya.
Visiting revelers competed with bar employees on Walking Street for who could
craft the scariest makeup. Bars ran promotions to bring out crowds, who gave the
entertainment zone a festive launch to high season.
Throughout Pattaya, hotels, shops and restaurants decorated their shops with
pumpkins and ghosts, and dressed up their employees to fit the fright night
theme.
Halloween is the biggest day of the year at Ripley’s World in Royal Garden
Plaza. Horrors of Halloween: Island of Haunted Dolls setting the vibe for the
evening, with a collection of “haunted dolls” from different Southeast Asian
cultures spread out across two floors of its Ripley’s Haunted Adventure.
Ripley’s Deputy Managing Director Somporn Naksuetrong hosted both a costume
contest and “haunted doll” competition for more than 200,000 baht in prizes.
Winners in the costume contest were Fahprathan Pholaaharn, No. 11, as Headless
Ghost. Runners-up were Somyos Naksukee as “Return of the Living Dead,” Narin
Pattanasan as a “ladyboy ghost,” and Nattapong Bumrungdee as Medusa.
The Hard Rock Cafe also threw its own monster mash, with 12 Hard Rock Hotel
guests competing in costume contests for kids and adults.
Dracula, vampire, skeletons, wizards, witches, and Thai ghosts at Hard Rock Cafe
competed for 3,000 baht food and beverage vouchers for children under 15, while
adults competed for vouchers worth 5,000 baht.
The youth winner, 15-year-old Daniel, dressed up as a pirate while the adult
winner was a zombie from “The Walking Dead.”
Ripley’s World in Royal Garden Plaza offered makeup
services for the scary night.
