Pauline’s second amazing audience were the ladies and gentlemen of Persley Castle Care Home. With no little ones around, she was able to tell tales of grave robbers, witches, vengeful ghosts and of course, Cauld Johnnie!

Our party organiser and storyteller, Pauline, was very busy indeed today! Hallowe’en is her busiest time of the year. She was costumed up and telling stories to three very different groups – here’s some pictures from the first… Fairytale Day at Kaimhill Nursery where the children were dressed as Princesses, Princes and fairytale characters. Pauline told the story of a wee boy who was honest and brave and who dared to dream. The children were top listeners!

As we’re in the calm before the storm of storytelling today, I thought I’d take this peaceful moment to say thanks to the two lovely families who invited Fizzy’s Funtastic Parties to their homes this weekend for a bit of Hallowe’en fun!
Dooking for Apples! Ghost Stories! Sticky Donuts! Amazing Costumes and lovely people
Here are some photos of Saturday night’s craft – Hallowe’en Lanterns! Everyone did so well at this craft – I was really impressed! Can’t wait to do this craft again.

Now that we’ve have got your attention…  A post from one of our friends on FaceBook has reminded us of a couple of occasions where face painting went wrong

1) the time Pauline went to a Hallowe’en party with all of the fake blood on her face, tried to remove it with a wet wipe and had to turn up to work the next day with blood stains still dripping out of her eyes. Oh yes- and the day after that. And the day after that! Stop laughing.
2) the time a friend’s son had to go to school all red all over because we’d painted him up as the devil – and then tried to get it off with a wet wipe.

Parents – If you use wipes “to remove the worst” of face paint – you are just pushing the pigment into the pores and are effectively “sealing in” the paint – yuk!
Instead – SOAP AND WATER and a nice cheap sponge! 

Here is the photo our friend sent us of her semi-permanent blooded hands!  You’ll be glad to know she got it off in the end 😉

Here at Fizzy’s Funtastic Parties we’re a fan of the humble NEEP!
So there’s a heads up at any lantern competitions Fizzy and Pauline are judging this Halloween 😉

Fizzy the Fairy, Cauld Johnnie and Pauline were at the Granite City Roller Derby Hallowe’en Fun Day Fundraiser on the 16th of October telling stories and having some spooky fun!
Pauline has been telling stories for 15 years and has a large repertoire of stories, songs, ballads and riddles covering many topics.  Please see our themes page for more details!

Preparing our Halloween costumes today for all our upcoming events! 😀

To end off your party, we offer face painting or glitter tattoos (depending on number and time available). We also do scary scars!
Let us know in advance if you have any particular theme you’d like and we’ll do our best to practice in advance 🙂

Fancy a Jedi Academy party? Fuzzy Crumb and his pal Bebo Sant have crashed their craft on the shore at Dunnottar but are still looking forward to meeting young Jedi in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire! 😀
