"Spooktacular" spooks Sentosa museum visitors during Halloween


SINGAPORE: Halloween — traditionally a time when ancient Celts believed the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead blurred — falls on Saturday this year.

From Pontianaks to scarred Chinese beauties, the ancient festival of Halloween has been given a decidedly Asian twist.

"Images of Singapore", a museum on Sentosa containing wax figures of old Singapore, was given a ghostly makeover in the name of "Spooktacular," for the Halloween period.

And from the queues of people waiting outside the venue, it can be said that scary business is obviously good business.

Visitors treaded nervously as they anticipated what was next, but most of the crowd lapped it up.

"We should have more of such events in Singapore — very fun," said a visitor.






It was the brainchild of a group of tourism studies students from Temasek Polytechnic and Sentosa. The S$75,000 event took months of preparation, and many ideas were tossed out before hitting on this combination.

"We came up with this theme of music and horror because these are the two main drivers for youths to feel excitement and the drive. So from then on, it built up to something called Spooktacular," said Jasmine Seah, a student at Temasek Polytechnic.
