The Insane Shane Party and Other Things To Do at Transworld

“The curious queue line wraps around the lobby and out the door. I feel the vibrations from the deep bass in the music but can’t quite understand it. Zombies and SteamPunk Creatures weave through the crowd. I try to push the excitement deep down so no one senses that I’m a newbie at this. As the line gets shorter, I feel the sweat breaking through my skin as it signals me to remain calm. The last time I felt this way was at the entrance to my first Haunted House. But this felt different. This was the Insane Shane Party…”

Transworld Halloween & Haunt ShowIn Episode 3 of HaunTopic Radio we interview Sue Gray from the Insane Shane Party and ask her what you can expect this year at the party. More vendors donating over $35,000 in prizes for you to win. A $300 grand prize for the best costume. And enough music, food, and friends to keep you engaged all night!

I attended last year and had an awesome time! Made some new friends and won 5 Haunted Portraits and an Oblivion Mask. It was an experience that I still carry around with me. Where else can you party with all of the Kings & Queens of Scary and still feel that you are in the middle of a Haunted Attraction. Dancing with creatures of the night, winning cool prizes, and actually meeting those friends that I only get to see once a year.

10 Things To Do In St.Louis When You’re Not At TransWorld

So you’ve got your registration in order. Your passes are sitting safely in your multi-coded security safe. You’ve booked your plane tickets and/or hotel rooms. You are eagerly awaiting TransWorld like a kid before Halloween. Ready to pounce and react. But have you thought about what you’re going to do when visions of zombies and bloody corpses aren’t dancing in your head? St.Louis is a wonderful city with soul and spirit and this would be a wonderful opportunity to explore all those things. Here are some ideas to help get you started.

  1. Go to InSane sHane’s Party: Thursday night. It starts at 7:30 pm. And it’s at the Renaissance Grand Hotel Crystal Ball Room. $95 a person. With many extra benefits.
  2. Go watch the Shock Illusionist Dan Sperry. Friday night. A 7:00 pm show and a 11:00 pm show.
  3. Go up inside the Arch. Daily Tours. 9-5 pm. Not sure of the price. But who doesn’t want to go to the top of the Arch?
  4. Go to a casino. Lumiere Place or Harrah’s. The two closest one’s. Make sure you save some money for buying props.
  5. Get your party on at The Landing. A historical area on the riverfront with pure charm and entertainment. Food, drinks, music, and people like you.
  6. TransWorld’s Opening Night Industry Party. Thursday night. 5:3o-7:30. Free with your registration.
  7. Haunted House Behind the Scene Tour: The Darkness, Terror Visions 3D and Lemp Brewery. Thursday 7:30-10:30 pm.
  8. Haunted Attraction Association Auction & Party: Friday night. 5:30-7:30pm. Free to attend and bid on all types of haunt stuff.
  9. The City Museum. Anyone with an imagination has to see this place. They are even open until 1 am on Friday and Saturday night.
  10. Go eat at Pappy’s Smokehouse or Bogart’s Smokehouse! You can’t leave St.Louis without eating real St.Louis BBQ. Or an order of toasted ravioli and gooey butter cake.

I want to give thanks to Lauren Lobosky for her input on this post. A St.Louis resident, Rotting Flesh Radio Casket Crew Member, and fellow Haunter. See you at the party sister!
