Recreation is a broad category. Things that don't fit elsewhere will be put here (at least until there's enough of them to make a new group).

2008 Michigan Haunted Houses, Mazes & Attractions
'Tis the season ... to be scared out of your wits! No, we're not referring to the recent 'Nightmare on Wall Street' but instead the start of the Halloween season. Once again our Fearsome Finder of Frights has compiled a list of haunted houses, corn mazes and scary attractions. Check them out in October and add ones we've missed!

Fort Fright: Haunted history at Michilimackinac
On October 10 & 11 Colonial Michilimackinac in Mackinac City becomes "Fort Fright" - home to werewolves, witches, and other legendary characters. Lanterns will light the way and many of the fort's buildings will be open, featuring a haunted house and costumed interpreters telling stories, playing music and serving authentic autumn treats like mulled cider, molasses cookies and toffee candy.

Weird Wednesday: The Little Yoopers
The photo is Macro Mushroom & Child by yooperyakker, and it appears that she's seen some other strange sights in the woods. Tread carefully!
