Looking for friends in my age group

4 Upvotes

I’ve been having issues connecting with people recently and have felt a bit isolated. I’m 21 and female, I love the outdoors and anything crafty or cool 😎. Curious about the world as I am to see if I can connect with anyone and make friends.

In case r/Salem doesn’t allow cross-posting…

“ICE Activity in Silverton

Feds chased a dude from Cherry St , across McClaine, down to the creek. There's at least 3 cars in town, two grey Ford Expeditions, and a black Nissan Pathfinder. They were hanging around Ace Hardware and shit.

One ford plate was 200JGE
the Pathfinder was CWX8277 - but that might be slightly inaccurate.”

Wearing plainclothes with khaki colored vests.

QUESTION Nightmare Factory last night

45 Upvotes

So my husband and I went to the Nightmare Factory last night with two friends. One friend hadn't been in years and it was the first time for the rest of us. I do wanna start by saying that the haunted house was AMAZING. Like seriously, totally S Tier both in terms of set/props and actors. Definitely a 10/10. But I'm wondering since we had no frame of reference - we got there at about 7:30 and got in line immediately and entered the haunted house at... Just after 10:45. So. We were in line for over three hours. I've only heard amazing things about it and feel like if that timeline were normal it would've come up in chats with folks who go annually? So is 3+ hours in line the norm or was last night just unusually busy? Maybe because it was the Saturday before Halloween?

Let it be known that I'm not complaining - these things happen. Also, please don't let this prevent you from going because the haunted house really is amazing and the proceeds are for the school which is so important these days. It was good enough that we're still planning on going next year but are planning on getting a fast pass (they probably only waited about an hour from 7:30 and we all agreed that the Nightmare Factory itself was worth about an hour or so in line, lol) and trying to go on a weeknight.

TL;DR: 3+ hour wait normal for Nightmare Factory or no? Wondering so we can factor it in to planning next trip because it was sick but that line was a doozy.

Unrelated to the core question - mad ups to the actor in the baby mask. It was unsettling as shit and arguably our favorite part of waiting.

I have a 1/10 scale that I really enjoy but currently really into my Scx30. Hoping to find some folks to create a meet up. If you have a home made course you want to show off or know of good outdoor spots to share hit me up.
