Ghosts and goblins, trick or treating, an unlimited amount of candy – the list is endless for all the things associated with the Halloween holiday. In this week’s issue we tried to give you as much Halloween as we could, and we started it off with our spooky feature as our very own, Remy Sisk went undercover at a haunted house. Remy went behind the scenes at The Devil’s Attic to find out what goes into the production of a haunted house and found out that it is a lot more work than one would think. He discovered that the costumes, makeup, endless screaming and preparation for scaring the patrons is exhausting yet endlessly fun. Be sure to check out Remy’s journey at the Devil’s Attic.

of detail that is carved into these pumpkins is incredible and hard to believe! This family friendly attraction is something everyone should check out and while you are there, look out for The Voice Tribune pumpkin!

Another Louisville Halloween tradition is the festive street in the Crescent Hill area – Hillcrest Avenue. The residents on Hillcrest Avenue deck their homes for the holiday and it is a popular destination spot for those looking for a free Halloween activity. This week’s Home of the Week features the Ghrist family home, which has been a Halloween crown jewel for the past two decades. The Ghrist family doesn’t just put carved pumpkins on their stoop, no. This family goes all out with the decorations making it one of the most visited homes on the street. I love the tradition that this family has kept alive for so many years and hope it continues for many more years to come.

It wouldn’t be a Halloween issue without profiling Caulfield’s Novelty. This Louisville staple is known for its year round costumes, party supplies and an expansive theatrical makeup collection. If you haven’t checked out Caulfield’s – a local and family owned business – I highly recommend it. Whether you are shopping for something in particular, or just going for the experience…it’s worth every second.

As for another family friendly activity, our own Igor Guryashkin ventured to Deere Farms where he partook in all things fall, such as; corn mazes, pumpkin picking and a petting farm. Take a look at this weeks Out & About and also the numerous galleries as we were busy around town as usual.

As for a newer Halloween attraction around town we profiled The Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular. Now in its third year at Iroquois Park, the Spectacular has over 5,000 professionally carved pumpkins placed on a quarter mile trail. It is simply amazing, and the amount

Lastly, in sports, Steve Kaufman looks ahead to the Wildcats’ big game against Auburn, while also casting a glance at John Calipari’s incoming basketball recruits. Kent Taylor meets top Wildcat freshman Skal Labissiere, while John Asher looks forward to the Breeders Cup in October. Our high school writer Randy Whetstone catches up with the diverse soccer team at Waggener High School, and Mike Rutherford gives us the latest news from the Cardinals football team who take on Florida State this weekend.

have always scared me. I can handle "The Shining" and "Friday the 13th." I love "The Strangers" and "Scream." "Poltergeist" was my entrée into the world of horror, and, ever since being scarred by it at age 7 in 1998, I’ve been a fan of the genre.

But the element of being brought into these worlds renders me a trembling, awkwardly laughing, constantly on edge child. I love Halloween and horror, but haunts are where I draw the line. But because they scare me so much, I wanted to learn more about this industry – what goes into the creation of a haunt, who the actors are, what visitors react to and, ultimately, what it’s like to work at a haunt.

And so, on a recent Friday, I worked for a night at The Devil’s Attic.

The haunt is one of the very few in Louisville that’s not far outside of town, as it sits on the corner of Seventh and Hill. It’s currently in its sixth year of inviting visitors inside the "devil’s attic," a place where the devil has stored the most evil souls of the world – from horror movie villains to classic Halloween characters.

head missing, revealing a metal plate underneath, greeted me in the hall. Seeing everyone ready at once intimidated me and made me all the more eager to see what my own character would be.

I was wearing black jeans and a dark green t-shirt, so I was ready for anything. I was promptly ushered into makeup, where Makeup and Special Effects Manager Matt Goodlett told me I was going to be in something called the boo hole, where only my head would be visible. He airbrushed my face white and then added accents of black and dark red. My lips were painted dark as well, and I learned that my look was loosely inspired by a War Boy from "Mad Max: Fury Road."

With a face that made me scared to look in the mirror, I left Goodlett to find Besemann in hopes of learning more about his philosophy and the haunt itself before actually being immersed in it.

As I said – even though I’ve been acting for 10 years – I was pretty apprehensive to jump right in with these people. Based on what I’d already seen, they were devoted to their craft in a sincerely admirable way, and I had to wonder where Jason found such incredibly invested and dedicated individuals.

"It’s a mix of backgrounds," he explains. "We

This concept, blended with stellar costumes and makeup, makes this haunt a little too believable in the most delightfully scary way; each individual element converges to create a truly one-of-a-kind experience for Halloween enthusiasts. "The biggest thing I want is for them to be scared – that’s a no-brainer," owner Jason Besemann says of haunt guests. "But also you want them to appreciate the art of the haunt. It’s a little more artsy than most traditional haunts as far as the lighting goes. The makeup obviously is extremely important, but the most important thing is the actors. You want them to be convincing."

And convincing they are indeed. I didn’t show up until 7 p.m. on the night I was to work, but other actors are required to be there sometimes as early as 5:30 p.m. So when I got there, everyone else was already prepared to scare. The priest from "The Exorcist," complete with an upside down crucifix seemingly burned into his forehead, was leaning against a wall. A hippy with a piece of his O C T O B E R 1 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W .

have a lot of stage actors; we have a lot of haunt actors who have been in the industry. And this year, we have a couple new folks who have never been in the industry. And they’ve got to have a real passion for Halloween and everything scary because, as you’ll find out tonight, it’s really hard work."

He wasn’t kidding. Besemann was called away before I could ask him more about the boo hole, but the actress who usually occupied the position instructed me to follow her as she’d be my coach. We wound our way through the fully illuminated haunt – an odd experience indeed – to get to the boo hole. We walked through a set from "Evil Dead," past the disturbing Christmas room where Krampus resides and finally found ourselves amidst the corn of Sleepy Hollow.

I followed her through a small dog door that led us to the space between two walls of the haunt.

The boo hole is basically just a quick and fun startle scare, I learned. Guests would be walking down one of the hallways of the haunt, and, as they walk by a particular section of the wall, I would loudly drop a trap panel to scare them from inside the wall.

"People always jump," she told me. "But be care-

ful not to stick your head through because they could hit you." They’re not supposed to, obviously, but when given such a start, people are liable to react in unpredictable ways. She then told me it was time for the meeting, and I followed her back out the dog door and into the meeting room.

Jason was there, as were all the actors. He encouraged everyone to do their best, told them that – even though it was raining – to give everyone who showed up the full experience and, finally, instructed everyone to start screaming at each other. The devil yelled in the face of Regan from "The Exoricist." Pinhead from "Hellraiser" screamed in the ear of Ash from "Evil Dead."

Once everyone was properly amped and charged, it was showtime.

The fog machines kicked on; the lights went out, and I nervously wandered back to the boo hole to get familiar with my routine. Next to the trap panel was a small peephole – no bigger than a penny – that I had to look through to watch for the shadows of guests. The light beyond the peephole was dark blue and I was in total darkness, so I knew it was going to be difficult to spot the approaching shadows.

I had been told my cue to watch for people was a nearby banging, but as soon as the haunt opened, I heard banging all around me. Was it the banging with rattling chains I should listen for? Or the banging like a door slamming? Or banging like somebody hitting a wall? I had to know because if I missed the shadows, I wouldn’t drop the panel.

And if the scarecrow down the hall from the boo hole didn’t hear the panel drop, he wouldn’t know to get into position. In a place of unending heavy stimulation, it was exceedingly difficult to learn my cue and know what to listen for. And if one person misses a cue, everybody does.

So I was anxious but ready. I waited and waited…and waited. Finally, I saw a shadow. Then a second shadow. Filled with adrenaline, I pulled the latch, dropped the panel and let out a hoarsely shrill shriek. My victims were three teenage girls, and they screamed nearly as loud as I did. I didn’t want to give them much time to stare at me in fear that I’d break character, so I quickly pulled the panel back up and latched it.

As the actors had all advised me, there’s nothing like your first scare. It was so much fun to see them react so strongly to me that I couldn’t wait to do it to the next group. I soon learned which kind of banging I was listening for and roughly how long I’d have between that and seeing shadows through the peephole.

Getting the hang of when I should expect visitors allowed me to consequently invest more energy in the scare itself, yielding hoarser and, what I’d like to think, scarier greetings to the passersby. At one point, someone was so startled by my appearance that he tripped, causing a domino effect with his friends behind him. After scaring that particular group, I closed the panel especially quickly.

Scaring people amidst the fog in the dim light from the boo hole was both exhilarating and intoxicating, but it was also tremendously tiring. Trying to stare through the dark peephole really strained my eyes, and the ceaseless screaming, banging, howling and shouting that sounded from all around gave me a head-

ache within the first 20 minutes. Fortunately, haunt employees would circle behind groups with cough drops, ibuprofen and candy for the actors.

Armed with a lozenge, Advil and Reese’s, I was repeatedly reinvigorated to scare. And scare I did – nearly everyone reacted just as strongly as the first group, though someone did just look at me with no reaction. "He’s probably done it before," I told myself. (That was a better explanation than me not being scary enough.)

At 10 p.m., after only two hours in the boo hole, it was break time and the end of my shift.

I emerged from my cavernous lair terribly thirsty, squinting at the light and with a pounding head.

Though it was fun, I was honestly surprised at how difficult it was and how much focus was required for the actors. I always thought the people who work in haunts were just there to have fun, but, as I learned, it’s difficult work and work I don’t think I could do as often or as well as they do.

Even though I was astoundingly exhausted, I had to face my fear and go through the haunt myself before I left. Once operation resumed, I shakily entered The Devil’s Attic. It didn’t matter that I had spent the last two hours inside and knew what to expect; it still scared the absolute heck out of me. All the actors who I’d just been chatting with during the break had dived back even more deeply into their roles after their brief rest.

From an audience member's perspective, I couldn’t believe the caliber of their performances nor that they’d give this same physically taxing performance up to 100 times per night, three nights per week. I shamelessly admit: They really did scare me, and I literally ran out of the last room of the haunt in absolute terror.

My experience in The Devil’s Attic did not make me any less scared of haunted attractions – nor did I expect it to – but it gave me a new appreciation for the industry. An appreciation for the makeup artist and how hard he has to work to create long-lasting and horrifying faces for actors that have to look and stay vibrant for several hours. An appreciation for the owner for having a vision and never sacrificing quality or his standards in order to implement it. And an appreciation for the actors who work sometimes very difficult positions within the haunt to give visitors the scariest experience possible. They don’t make much money; they do this because they are passionate about horror and the holiday.

So get out to a haunted attraction this year and, yes, be scared, but try to appreciate them for the art pieces they are. They are amalgamations of performing and visual arts and a true platform for remarkably talented individuals to showcase their unique but nonetheless spectacular skill sets. And, above all else, make sure to appreciate and respect the actors because, as I learned, there’s a lot more that goes into working at a haunted house than saying, "Boo." VT

The Art of the

Scar e "A lot of the makeup is movie based, so you have to sort of match the movies but also adapt. The light in the room changes the makeup. For example, 'The Exorcist' makeup – in the movie, [makeup artist] Dick Smith did it in yellow. If we do yellow in our room with the lights, you can't see it. So we have to use almost a sallow green.

You have to change the makeup according to the light."

the store. “And they had an insurance settlement that left them with $25 extra after paying the medical bills, so they bought some tricks and jokes and put them for sale in the waiting room of the photography studio. And pretty soon, people were coming to us for the tricks and jokes more than the photography, so we closed the photography aspect and changed the name to Caufield’s Novelty.”

Although it’s now known for its costumes, decorations and, well, novelties, Caufield’s actually was a photography studio when it opened on South Third Street in 1920. But then, due to complete chance, the company took an unforeseen step toward altering its identity.

Ever since asserting this new identity in the early '20s, Caufield’s has gained a reputation as the preeminent destination for all things unusual. The store moved to Market Street, where the convention center now sits, in the early '70s before moving a final time to its current location on 10th and Main in 1986.

“My father was hit by a car and his arm was broken,” recounts co-owner Tracy Caufield Johnson of a time soon after her grandfather opened

Halloween has of course always been their busiest season thanks to the racks and racks (and racks) of costumes. “But our second busiest holiday is

O C T O B E R 1 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

16

Kentucky Derby,” Johnson relates. “We have our own line of horse and jockey decorations that we import along with horse and jockey novelties and party supplies. And we ship all over the world during Derby.”

Not just for Halloween – or the Derby – Caufield’s truly has something for every holiday every time of year, which is part of what makes it so special in Johnson’s eyes. “We offer costumes yearround, so when you have a kid at school who needs to be Benjamin Franklin, we have a Benjamin Franklin costume,” she describes. “Or when you have a church play that you need something for, or if you need Santa Claus at Christmastime or the Easter Bunny at Easter time.”

And for costumes not holiday-specific, Caufield’s has those too. Cosplay – or costume play, where people dress up as specific characters for conventions or festivals – has been gaining momentum for several years, and Johnson contends that Caufield’s is a great place to start when making a costume.

P H O T O S B Y C H R I S H U M P H R E Y S | T H E V O I C E -T R I B U N E

But Caufield’s is more than costumes. For example, they have a magic section where Lance Burton, the Las Vegas millionaire magician, was once the resident magician and would show and sell magic tricks.

Additionally, Caufield’s stage makeup offering is quite possibly the most expansive in the region, popular with those interested in everything from makeup for a play to materials for special effects makeup.

“Really, we’re the only place in town that carries such a broad spectrum of stage makeup, and we have the people here who can help you with that,” Johnson contends. “A lot of makeup artists who actually do beauty makeup will come in for our foundation and things because they’re theatre-quality. And they’ll use them for weddings or something.”

Profile

“There’s so many conventions, and we have several in the state that are pretty big deals,” she asserts. “And people want the best. A lot of people will build their costumes for cosplay as opposed to building them, and we have the stuff they need to build upon. We have high-quality wigs. We have corsets. So they can take those pieces and add them to things to make their own costumes.”

Whatever you’re shopping for, you will undoubtedly enjoy yourself as you browse Caufield’s unusual and eclectic collection of products, for Johnson wants more than anything for her customers to have a good time when they stop by the shop.

“We try to make it an experience when you come in here,” she affirms.

“It’s not just that you’re coming in to shop for a costume or look for something in particular. We have the ‘dungeon,’ which is a really awesome room where we put all our Halloween props and all of our scary stuff, and we have some really awesome props in there. People just come in to see them; we don’t necessarily sell a lot, but we try to make it fun!”

If you come in the throes of Halloween madness in late October or during the doldrums of early February, there is sure to be something at Caufield’s to make you smile. Thanks to a rich assortment of merchandise, a superbly knowledgeable staff and a genuine family history, Caufield’s is a Louisville staple certainly worth preserving. VT Caufield's is located at 1006 W. Main St., Louisville, KY 40202. For more information call 502.583.0636 or visit caufields.com.

Visitors may arrive at Iroquois tivities, ancient cultures of Park any time after dusk – gates usually the British Isles created the first open around 7:30 p.m. – to witness the incarnation of the jack-o’-lanspectacle.

“Every few feet, you feel you’re stepping into a new is putting its own spin on that ancient trascene with different pumpkins and intricate designs. dition by playing host to The Louisville It’s just incredible.”

Jack-O’-Lantern Spectacular.

The original event was created 27 years ago in Providence, Rhode Island by Passion for Pumpkins Inc. Former Louisville Convention & Visitors Bureau President Jim Wood saw the show in the Northeast and pushed the production company to stage a show in Louisville as well. Eventually, his dream became a reality, and Passion for Pumpkins is now in its third year of producing The Louisville Jack-O’-Lantern Spectacular.

This year’s overall theme is “All the World’s a Stage” and features carved pumpkins featuring Academy Award-winning films, Broadway plays, television shows and comic books. It also includes a children’s section and a tribute to Kentucky section. “It’s pretty ethereal feeling, really,” Nelson contends.

The Emerald City scene is part of the "All the World's a Stage" theme this year.

A common misconception, she reveals, is that the event only operates on the weekends like haunted attractions and other holiday events. But due to the nature of the concept, they must remain open every day. “They’re vegeta-

bles, so we have to keep it up and running because otherwise what’s the point?” Nelson reasons.

Still, the pumpkins must be replaced every couple of days and sometimes even more often. “Like this week, it was warm, and then it rained. Then it cooled down and then got warm again. So they said they had to go through a bunch of pumpkins already this week,” she explains.

To keep up with the demand of the event, the project employs 20 local artists who work around the clock to always have fresh jack-o’-lanterns on hand. “They work every day, all day. You could go in there any time of night and find at least two or three people working,” Nelson asserts.

Although it may be tedious work for the creators, Nelson appreciates the imagination the artists bring to their pieces. “Of course, they add their talent or twist to it,” she describes. “So it’s not just an image that’s ripped offline. The creativity of these artists is just amazing.”

Louisville has four more years left on its current contract with Passion for Pumpkins, so the city can look forward to this family-friendly event for years to come. “It offers an opportunity for the citizens to see some really beautiful pumpkins, and it’s for all ages” Nelson affirms. “It’s great for kids; it’s great for adults – I even fancy it a date night type of experience – and it’s not scary.

business briefs KENTUCKY HUMANE SOCIETY’S #VILLEMEGAADOPT On Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 17-18, the Kentucky Humane Society and Louisville Metro Animal Services will be waiving adoption fees on ALL pets at the KHS Main Campus in South Louisville and LMAS’ Animal House on Newburg Road. Our goal for #VilleMegaAdopt is to find EVERY pet at our main adoption facilities a home by Sunday night. This event is part of the ASPCA’s national Mega Match-a-thon, presented by Subaru, in which 16 communities across the U.S. are participating.

Last year over 180 KHS and LMS dogs and cats went home during our Empty the Shelter event in September; we are planning to break that record this year by turning this into a two-day mega adoption weekend. In addition to pet adoptions, there will be music, food, activities and vendors at both adoption centers.

While we are waiving adoption fees, we are not waiving the adoption process. Each adopter will meet with an adoptions counselor before taking their newest family member home.

BROWN-FORMAN BREAKS GROUND ON NEW $50 MILLION SLANE DISTILLERY AT IRELAND’S HISTORIC SLANE CASTLE Brown-Forman Corporation held its official ground breaking ceremony on September 29 for Slane Distillery, the company’s initial entry into distilling Irish whiskey. Slane Distillery is also the first distillery built by Brown-Forman outside of the United States. The U.S. Ambassador to Ireland, Kevin O’Malley, joined representatives from Brown-Forman and Slane Castle for the distillery’s official construction kick-off.

Slane Distillery is planned to open in late 2016. The new distillery will create nearly 25 new full-time jobs while the construction process will support approximately 80 jobs. The distillery is being built in the grounds of Slane Castle, which is located in the middle of a 1,500 acre estate in the heart of Ireland’s Boyne Valley, 30 miles north of Dublin. Slane Castle is the home of Henry Conyngham, the eighth Marquess Conyngham, and his son, Alex Conyngham, the Earl of Mount Charles, whose family has been part of the Slane community for generations.

The distillery and visitor center, which is in the historic stables complex adjacent to Slane Castle, will involve the 18th century buildings being restored and converted to house both the production operations and the consumer experience. The first Slane Irish whiskeys will be launched to market in early 2017 – initially using high-quality whiskey purchased from other Irish distilleries and finished to Slane’s exacting recipes and specifications while the first whiskey from the distillery is laid down to mature.

No More Barker Barkin’!

T

his week’s unusual Thursday night game against Auburn is, to this point, the most defining game of the Mark Stoops era at Kentucky.

Which makes it frustrating to have to write this column several days before the game is even played.

So Stoops, I’m glad you didn’t play Barker. Now put a lid on it, and everybody out here will relax – more or less.

Catnip STEVE KAUFMAN

Auburn is still SEC royalty, though its robes are a bit on the tattered side so far this year. A Kentucky win would be the ultimate statement that an important corner in the Wildcat football program has been turned. And I’m not talking about a great effort in a close but losing cause.

The Cats are, hopefully, beyond accepting that pat on the head.

But win or lose, I have to say this: Mark Stoops, stop bawling out the media for bringing up Drew Barker’s name. It’s you who brings it up! Every! Single! Week!

Before the Eastern Kentucky game: “I guarantee you this, Drew Barker will see some action, regardless of the situation.” As it turned out, the situation was never ideal, and pulling Patrick Towles with the Wildcats trailing an FCS opponent could have been dreadful.

Either the Cats might well have lost, a promising season destroyed. Or Barker would have engineered a win and the fire would burn down the barn.

Someone said the most popular player on any football team is the back-up quarterback. I’m older than practically everybody else here, and I’ve seen these confrontations occur time and again, college and pro.

I saw Buffalo Bills fans scream for Jack Kemp’s head. Daryle Lamonica had played at Notre Dame and the city of Buffalo has a huge Notre Dame following. (This was at a time, remember, when the Bills were winning American Football League championships.)

I saw Michigan fans scream for Lloyd Carr to put Drew Henson in and get Tom Brady off the field. Yes, that Tom Brady. Never mind that Brady-led Michigan won 20 of 25 games.

I saw a full decade of New York Giants fans call Bill Parcells an idiot for sticking with Phil Simms. It didn’t matter who was Simms’ backup. It didn’t matter that those Giants won two Super Bowls.

Wherever you lived, I’m sure you have a story like that.

HERE COMES WINTER Also this week is that irresistible funfest, Big Blue Madness, to officially welcome the good old wintertime.

The fun is certainly not the scrimmage that they play for a few minutes. And it’s not even Matthew Mitchell’s dancing, which would surely be the evening’s highlight on most other campuses.

It’s the thrill of another Kentucky men’s basketball season, introducing another new set of names and faces.

By those cold, dark midweek nights in January against Vanderbilt and LSU, we’ll know them all. But right now, I’m eager to begin separating Charles Matthews from Isaiah Briscoe, Mychal Muldar from Jamal Murray. (I got Skal! Hard to miss Skal.)

Who is who? Who will hit the big 3s? Who will block shots, steal balls, trigger fast breaks? Whose name will we be chanting in March?

Think back just a year ago. Can you remember trying to sort out which one was Towns and which one was Lyles? Was it Devin Booker or Brooker? And was that Tyler Ulis or the student manager?

Every year, members of Big Blue Nation are given this newly bejeweled Fabergé egg, colored blue and trimmed in white with a tiny little window on the side. We know we have a priceless gem in our hands. But how priceless?

We try to hold the egg up to the light, but it’s difficult to see what’s inside. That promise will only reveal itself slowly over the next several months as the egg is gradually opened up and we see what treasures it holds.

Right now, we’re impatient to get our first look, even though we know it will all happen soon enough, and fly by faster than that – from an exhibition game against Kentucky State to that holiday event versus Louisville, through the cold winter slog of the SEC season, and then the tournament arrives – for better or for worse – with the rain and the robins and Daylight Savings.

Then it’s over for another year. We watch the draft on TV and feel the separation, as the young men who’ve become “our” young men get taken away from us – we hardly knew you! – and then, it’s another long summer until another Madness.

Is it any wonder we enjoy it so? VT

Women’s Swimming and Diving Drops Season Opener

T

he Kentucky women’s swimming and diving team opened up the 2015-16 campaign on the road, falling in a 162-138 decision to Southeastern Conference foe Arkansas on Saturday.

“It’s great to be on the road for the first time, and it’s a really good test for our young team against a good Arkansas,” commented Head Coach Lars Jorgensen. “We came up a little bit short, which is disappointing, but we had some young people step up.”

The Wildcats won 9 of 16 events in the setback, with a trio of swimmers earning multiple victories. Danielle Galyer had an outstanding afternoon for the Blue and White, sweeping her individual events and anchoring the meet-closing 400 free relay that finished runner-up in 3:28.73.

“I was really happy with my individual performances,” noted Galyer. “They were way better than I’ve done in a dual meet since I’ve been in college. So I’m just happy to be moving in the right direction.”

Haley McInerny and Kendra Crew were the other Wildcats to notch multiple wins.

In her collegiate debut, McInerny swept the butterfly races in 55.00 seconds and 2:00.98.

Crew was a stronghold for Kentucky in the breaststroke races, picking up a win in the 100 breast in 1:04.00 and notching her second victory of the day in the 200 breast in 2:16.48.

Geena Freriks was the second freshman to record a win in her first appearance donning the Blue and White. After taking third in a close 50 free in 23.86 seconds, Freriks bounced back to win the 100 free in 51.17 seconds, edging out Maddie Monroe of UA by just under two-hundredths of a second.

Kentucky will have a short break before hitting the water again, as the Wildcats will host Texas A&M in a co-ed SEC matchup on Wednesday, October 14. The meet is slated to begin at 3 p.m. in Lancaster Aquatic Center.

S

ince it was unofficially admitted as a member of the ACC in November of 2012, Louisville has been propped up fans and media alike MIKE as an Atlantic DiviRUTHERFORD sion "rival" of league @cardchronicle powerhouses Florida State and Clemson. The Cardinals were supposed to tip the balance of power in the conference even farther away from the Coastal Division, and set up an exciting year in, year out three-horse race in which UofL traded blows back-and-forth with the Seminoles and Tigers.

Here's the thing about rivalries: unless you're Wile E. Coyote or The Foot Clan, you actually need to win a couple of times in order to sustain your status as a capable foe.

On Saturday, Louisville will take its fourth shot at either Florida State or Clemson since joining the conference. UofL has been an underdog in each instance, and three times they've been facing an undefeated opponent ranked in the top 10. Of course there's one more consistency: the Cards have yet to emerge victorious over one of their bourgeoning rivals.

It's not like Bobby Petrino's teams haven't had their chances. There was the last-second goal line stand by Clemson in Death Valley a year ago, a crushing 3-point loss to the Tigers at home last month, and a blown 21-0 lead against Florida State almost exactly 12 months ago.

Each performance has garnered respect both nationally and from the opponents, but close calls do not a rivalry make.

The 2015 Cardinals are young, a fact that those who follow the program both closely and from a distance are well aware of. To illustrate that point, UofL 72 plays in its win over NC State two weeks ago, and at no time did they have fewer than six freshmen or redshirt freshmen on the field. Louisville also started a true freshman at each of the three positions that most agree are the most difficult to play on the offensive side of the ball -- quarterback and both tackles.

The logical response to seeing all that youth on the field at the same time is to think about the potential that exists for the 2016, 2017 and P H O T O B Y C H R I S H U M P H R E Y S | T H E V O I C E -T R I B U N E

Despite holding a 21-point second quarter lead over Florida State – the largest deficit the Seminoles had faced over the last two seasons, UofL’s lost their first ever conference game against FSU on Oct. 30 by a margin of 42-31.

2018 seasons. But life in a major conference is different than life in Conference USA or even the Big East was. The ongoing perception battle that exists in college football requires there to be major work done each and every season. That fact is especially true for a program like UofL, which is still a newborn in the world of "Power 5" conference football.

If Louisville wants to hear themselves bandied about again next summer as a tier one contender in the ACC, they probably need to confirm the suspicions of those who attached them with that same label before this season. With a 2-3 record and a golden opportunity against Clemson already squandered, there's no way to make that happen which doesn't involve leaving Tallahassee with a victory on Saturday.

"It's nice to have the young guys and try to build, but right now our important thing is to win every game that we play," Petrino said earlier this week. "They are fast and they play a lot of fast guys. They are one of the teams that we play that utilize a dime package and put six defensive backs in there. But we matched up with them pretty good last year with our speed. We're excited about it."

Even if there weren't major implications for Louisville's 2015 season or the Cardinals'

place in the ACC food chain, there would still be plenty of reasons for everyone associated with UofL football to be excited about this one.

College football's regular season includes at least a few games on every team's schedule that are de facto bowl games in their own right. If you're a 3-4 team in the SEC that still has a couple of home games left against top 10 opponents, those are going to be huge events. A win isn't going to turn you into a national title contender, but your fans are still going to celebrate like you are. Records are inconsequential here; a win and you're champions for that day and that weekend.

Given Louisville's close calls against its ACC "rivals" so far, its slow start to 2015 and everything else that has been happening with the athletic program in recent weeks (Google it), I'm not sure there's been a better time for Cardinal players and fans to feel like champions for a weekend. VT

A True Rivalry Needs Both Teams Winning

The Top 10 of LCFC’s Inaugural Year

T

memorable aspect of the game was he inaugural Louisone of the rarest calls you’ll ever see. ville City FC season In the 26th minute, it was judged was one for the ages that OKC’s keeper had handled a across the board in terms of back pass with his hands from his success. The club fielded the own team, which resulted in an indirect free kick in City’s box. This call highest scoring offense in the means the person taking the kick league, made it to the conferJOEY cannot shoot the ball at the goal, ence finals and finished secCECIL but instead the ball must be touched ond in the league in attenby another offensive player before a dance. With that abundance of suc- shot can occur. Louisville City played the rare cess comes an abundance of moments call to perfection as Fondy sent the ball across to cherish from this unforgettable sea- the box to a waiting Magnus Rasmussen who powered it into the top of the net. son of soccer.

I was given the unenviable task of deciphering and selecting what the best moments were from this season. I mean, we had the Golden Boot winner as Matt Fondy scored a league-record 22 regular-season goals, and right-back Bryan Burke led the league in assists with 10 in a tremendous comeback season from injury. It was tough to narrow the list to just 10, but here were my 10 favorite moments: 10. NATE POLAK CATCHES ST. LOUIS SLEEPING On May 24, Louisville City traveled to St. Louis for what can only be called a wet and wild game. The game was tied 1-1 in the second half when play was stopped due to lightning, and the delay took 63 minutes. City was down 3-2 in the 80th minute when they were awarded a free kick and Nate Polak caught St. Louis and their fans off guard. In the midst of some smoke bombs, Polak took a quick free kick from the top of the box that slid past St. Louis’ keeper and shocked the stadium as few could see what had happened in the middle of the smoke bombs.

9. KADEEM DACRES LATE EQUALIZER In their fourth game of the season, City was down 1-0 late in stoppage time on the road at Pittsburgh. Louisville seemed destined to experience their first loss until midfielder Kadeem Dacres pulled a magical goal out of nowhere.

Dacres bended a left-footed shot from outside the box just inside the near post of the Riverhounds keeper to square the game at one goal apiece in the 92nd minute and give Louisville a crucial road point.

7. THE MATT-TRICK A midweek trip in mid-August to Harrisburg City proved to be a historic one for Matt Fondy. The striker and captain came out on fire and poured in a first-half hat-trick but was not done. Fondy would add a fourth goal in the second half for Louisville City’s first ever four-goal performance and one that earned the distinction the “Matt-trick.”

6. BETTER LATE THAN NEVER Louisville City traveled to Indianapolis in late May with advancement in the U.S. Open Cup on their minds. What they found was a game and tough Indy Eleven side that dragged the game into extra time as it ended 0-0 in regulation. It would take until the 115th minute, when Nate Polak tightly turned at the top of the box and sent a shot into the Indy net, for City to grab a lead. Loanee Sidney Rivera would add a rebound goal in the 119th minute to ensure a Louisville City win in what was a nerve-wracking game with a terrific ending.

5. CITY HANGS WITH THE CHICAGO FIRE People were unsure of how Louisville City would perform when they finally faced MLS-level competition in the form of the Chicago Fire in the U.S. Open Cup. One thing for sure is that the Fire did not expect such a tough matchup, one that went to extra time and saw a heart-breaking 115th minute goal by the Fire

4. THE OPENING DEPOSIT Opening Day, March 28, was a day that many in the city had only dreamed of: the beginning of professional soccer in Louisville.

Many were unsure how the day would turn out since both teams in competition that day were in their first ever match (the other being St. Louis). In the 24th minute, Magnus Rasmussen got in behind the St. Louis backline and slotted a ball home to the left corner of the net for the first goal in Louisville City FC history and the first of many in this historic season.

3. LOUISVILLE CITY WELCOMES ORLANDO CITY In the most publicized match of the season, Louisville came out to impress their MLS opponents – and not just on the field! The fans of Louisville packed Slugger Field to the tune of a record crowd of 9,434 that was loud, energizing and downright insane. The action on the field matched the intensity in the stands as Louisville won 3-1 on a night that would be memorable for all those who attended and once again exhibited the competitive and successful nature of the club.

2. AODHAN QUINN PUTS LOUISVILLE CITY ON THE MAP When Aodhan Quinn stepped up to a 20th minute free kick on the road at Tulsa, I’m sure he had in his mind he wanted to score, but I’m not sure he thought how much his story and that of the team’s was about to change. Quinn’s free kick curled towards the upper 90 and banged in off the post leaving Tulsa’s keeper helpless. Word of the goal quickly spread through social media and it ultimately made that night’s “Top 10” on ESPN’s “SportsCenter,” coming in at number five and giving Louisville City some national spotlight attention.

1. THE MATT FONDY SHOW When Louisville City hosted the Charleston Battery in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, there were many who were excited, nervous and some just downright ready for that night. The nerve-wracking game ended 0-0 in regulation, which meant extra time and more people holding their breath. As it had been for numerous moments of the season, it was Fondy who stepped up and scored both decisive goals in extra time, one in the 106th minute and the sealer in the 117th, to give Louisville City a historic playoff win and further the striker’s historic goal-scoring season. VT

8. WAIT, THEY CALLED WHAT? Louisville City’s June 27 home game against the Oklahoma City Energy FC saw it all and then some: the first hat-trick in team history to Matt Fondy, most goals scored in team history as they registered six, but arguably the most

send City packing in the Cup. What made this such a great moment was seeing Louisville hold its own with the Fire and frustrate the hosts into a game that was minutes from being decided by penalty kicks.

he countdown clock rolls on toward the 2015 Breeders’ Cup Championships celebration at Lexington’s Keeneland Race Course and it is difficult to imagine the mindset of any racing fan that would not be looking forward to the event and, in particular, it’s main event.

Horse Sense JOHN ASHER

The $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic on Saturday, Oct. 31 at Keeneland continues to shape-up as a Halloween treat of historic proportion.

I will not be offender should any reader drop me into the “homer” category, but my personal list of favorite moments in the Breeders’ Cup World Championships since the event’s 1984 debut continues to be topped by three events witnessed under the Twin Spires of Churchill Downs. The trio includes: • Unbeaten Personal Ensign’s victory over Kentucky Derby winner Winning Colors in the 1988 Distaff in the first Breeders’ Cup at the Louisville track, • Blame’s narrow victory in the 2010 Classic over the great mare Zenyatta, who ended her racing career a photo-finish shy of perfection, • The 1998 Classic triumph by Awesome Again over ’97 Kentucky Derby winner Silver Charm and European champion Swain, members of a 10-horse field that I continue to believe was the finest assembled for any race in the history of the Breeders’ Cup Championships.

It will take a lot for this year’s running of the 1 ¼-mile Classic in the first Breeders’ Cup hosted by Keeneland to dislodge any of those three from my “best of ” list. But the potential for a mythic Breeders’ Cup moment exists should all of its expected participants make it into the starting gate shortly before trick-ortreaters hit the streets in Lexington.

The race favorite and main attraction is Zayat Stable’s Kentucky Derby winner and “Horse of the Year” frontrunner American Pharoah, the first Triple Crown winner to be a part of the proceedings. The Breeders’ Cup debuted six years after the 1978 Triple Crown won by Affirmed, which was the last sweep of the Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes prior to this year’s 12th sweep of the series by trainer Bob Baffert’s star.

While American Pharoah comes into the Classic off the second loss of his career, he will be the topranked horse in the world when he faces what figures to be close to a full-gate at Keeneland as the light begins to dim on Breeders’ Cup Saturday in Lexington.

He’s a fabulous athlete and one does not have to dig deep to regard his sole loss of the season in Saratoga’s Travers as a remarkable effort.

But the final contest of American Pharoah’s racing could be his most challenging test.

He’ll be facing top older stars for the first time and one doesn’t have to travel too far back in your personal Wayback Machine to recall that his most difficult career performance came at the Kentucky Derby’s 1 ¼ miles, which is also the Classic distance.

While he is atop the Longines World’s Best Racehorse rankings, several likely Classic foes reside close to the Derby winner on the list.

Classic rivals on the list include: • Trainer Shug McGaughey’s Metropolitan Mile winner Honor Code, locked in a tie for seventh,

Stakes winner Tonalist, winner of the recent Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont Park, • Pennsylvania Derby winner Frosted, fourth and second to American Pharoah in the Derby and Belmont Stakes, and third in the Travers, • The intriguing Smooth Roller, who has run only four times but defeated reigning and now-retired 2014 Classic winner Bayern in the Awesome Again at Santa Anita.

There are plenty of stars lining up for spots in races on the Breeders’ Cup undercard, but no other event on the spectacular schedule for the two-day racing spectacle has the potential for greatness packed by the 2015 Classic.

With his status as a Kentucky Derby and Triple Crown winner, American Pharoah is already breathing rare air. A win in the Classic, and especially a convincing triumph, over what appears to be one of the strongest fields in Breeders’ Cup Classic history would go a long way toward cementing American Pharoah’s legacy as that of a truly great American race horse. VT

• Keen Ice, the Dale Romanstrained Travers winner who is in that tie for seventh and is the only horse to finish in front of American Pharoah this year, • European star Gleneagles, a fourtime Group I-winning son of top sire Galileo who will attempt to transfer his grass form to dirt and score a Classic win for Irish training legend Aidan O’Brien, • The brilliant Beholder, the 5-yearold mare who will face males for the first time for Hall of Fame trainer Richard Mandella as she bids to become the first of her gender to win the Classic, • 2014 Belmont

Keeneland’s BC Classic Should Rank Among Best

A New Star Arrives

Skal Labissiere is the latest No. 1 recruit to sign with John Calipari and the University of Kentucky. A talented, smooth, 6-foot-11 shot blocker, his story off the court is a little different that those of Karl-Anthony Towns, Anthony Davis and John Wall.

Skal was born and raised in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and was home January 12, 2010, when an earthquake that measured 7.0 on the Richter scale rocked the country and killed more than 200,000 people. Labissiere is still waiting for clearance from the NCAA. What is different about life here?

How many people close to you were injured?

I’m just a happy person in general, from where I came from, always have a smile on my face. I just appreciate things a little bit more.

I’m very thankful for life, thankful for everything that I have, the opportunities that God gave me.

I had some family members that were injured – thankfully none of them were dead – so everybody was safe. I was very fortunate to be alive and then hopefully to make an impact on other people’s lives.

What is life like in Haiti now?

Taylor’s 10 KENT TAYLOR WAVE3 Sports

I haven’t been back in five years, so I just hear things. They still have a lot of reconstruction to do. It’s a little bit better than it was after the earthquake happened.

How much of your family is still there?

My mom, dad are still over there. I have my little sister over there, and I have some aunts and uncles here and there.

Have your parents been here to see you?

They came a couple of times.

How hard has that been?

It’s been hard, but I keep in touch with them. We talk about two or three times a week.

What goes through your mind when the house starts to shake?

I just remember hearing people screaming and hearing my little brother screaming, and I just remember me thinking that it was all a dream. It was a very scary experience, and I’m just glad I got through it to be here today.

O C T O B E R 1 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

What was the process that brought you to America?

My guardian Gerald Hamilton – that’s who I lived with for five years in Memphis, Tennessee – he has a non-profit organization where he helps kids around the world, and he somehow got in contact with my parents back in Haiti and they worked everything out to get me to come here and go to school. He treated me just like one of his sons. He has three other kids. It’s a nice family, a nice group of people, so I was very thankful to be living with them.

What is the best part about being a Kentucky basketball player?

Tigers Roll Past Crimsons

S

t. Xavier bounced back from last week’s defeat to bitter rival Trinity with a resounding 27-6 victory over local powerhouse Manual.

Junior quarterback Desmond Ridder passed for 151 yards and rushed for 68.

The Tigers extended their record to 5-2 for the year, while the Crimsons fell back to 6-1, losing for the first time this season while also posting their 27th straight defeat to St. X – a streak that dates back to 1993.

LOOKING AHEAD Male High School (7-0), ranked No. 1 according to MaxPreps, will look to stay undefeated on the season. They have a target on their back as the only other unbeaten in the state of Kentucky, other than Simon Kenton. They will go to visit St. X (5-2) October 16 at 7:30 p.m.

The Bardstown Tigers (4-3), who are on a two game wining streak, will be playing at Central High School (5-2) October 16 at 7:30 p.m. Central is on a current five game winning streak. VT

Just the fans. They love their basketball team. There’s a lot that comes with it, a lot of responsibilities. I just like the challenge of being here, it’s very competitive when we play pickup. Just getting better as a basketball player and as a person.

How would you describe your game?

I’m very versatile. I can do a little bit of everything. I run the floor. I still need to run the floor better than I do right now, block shots and rebound. VT

During Head Coach Stephen Buchholz says his players are experiencing something that is quite rare in today’s society.

“The players will never be in an environment this diverse. At this point in time, they are setting themselves up for success. They are learning to interact with many different people. They are learning from each other many incredible things about culture. I have learned incredible amounts of things about different cultures, interacting with different

his time at Waggener, he has embraced the moments he has had with his teammates.

“It is really good and amazing. When you think about it, we are just in high school. It is not the college level or pros and some guys at that level may have a hard time playing with different people, but we are accepting it. So I think it is really amazing.”

What is truly amazing is the message that is sent by this team throughout society. Prejudice and discrimination is broken when these Wildcats step onto the soccer field.

Assistant Coach Daniel Woodley says it is a great sight to see.

“When we play teams that are predominantly white, we roll in with a very diverse team, and they see all of us playing together and having fun. We are high-fiving and hugging, and for some of them, they may not see that a lot. It is good to break the racism barrier. Just because our skin color is different doesn’t mean we can’t get along and that we can’t be brothers, and it doesn’t mean that we can’t love and be there for each other even if it is over a game of soccer.”

Within the team, senior Aldair Martinez from Mexico says the greatest thing he has been able to take away from playing on a team with so much diversity is, “the skill and the talent that everybody has and how it is spread across the whole team. It helps everyone get the equal amount of skills and talent from everybody.”

By the team spreading its talent to other players, it signifies their sacrifice as individuals and their pursuit toward their ultimate goal, which is team success.

“They have had incredible moments when they sacrifice for each other. They stand up for each other and refuse to let one of their teammates down,” says Buchholz. “The biggest indicator is that they want to do well for each other. Just like in the World Cup and National team, they want to make their country proud and represent their country well. They all have the same goal which is to play for each other and to put the team over everything. They put Waggener soccer over individual names and individual stats.”

The joy from the coaching staff has been their ability to invest into the lives of young men who may not have a father figure or someone who believes in them. By always facing naysayers, the team has finally been able to have coaches who support them in school, athletics, college and life situations.

As a response, the team has appreciated how their coaches are truly genuine.

Moving forward, Buchholz says he will continue to bridge the gap between ethnic groups through the tool that is the Waggener Wildcats.

“What I envision with this program is to continue to develop the diversity and the ability to create a unit and one team. One program on the same page going after the same goals, and wants the same thing for the program, which is the best for each other.” VT

ran Jasper had a glorious late summer evening for her cocktail party at her business on Bardstown Road.

Fran and her niece travel the exotic world ports looking for and buying oriental rugs. The theme for the evening was “A Night in Morocco,” celebrating a recent trip there.

Partyline CARLA SUE BROECKER

Everyone loves Fran. She is such a dear. All the guests were longtime friends, and many of them are customers. Her building was an old firehouse with a large graveled backyard. She had lovely blue matching sofas out there, and the bar and waiters kept everyone in fine spirits!

Enjoying the perfect weather were Joey Seay and his charming mother, Martha, who has moved back home after years in Florida. Sue Baughman, Martha Johnston (Larry was off fishing), Dan and Margaret Woodside, Steve Bass and Davis Edwards, Diana and Bill Schmied, Sandy Gulick, Susan Clarkson (Bobby was fishing with Larry) and lots more enjoyed good wine and cool breezes.

Award to recognize a local civic volunteer who has demonstrated exceptional leadership and participation in multiple organizations across Greater Louisville. Like Sug – whose tireless energy supported not only Heuser but also the Derby Museum, CASA, the Red Cross and others – recipients are known for their ability to inspire, include and engage others.

Past honorees have been JoAnn Gammon and Kathy Oyler. This year’s award, which was made at the Butterflies in Motion Luncheon on September 28, was presented to Madeline Abramson. Most visibly known as Louisville’s first lady for many years, she currently serves as the board chair of The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts. She also serves in the effort to promote colon cancer awareness in Kentucky, the Kentucky Commission on Women and Maryhurst where a cottage is named for her.

SCIENCE CENTER NEW CEO The members of the Lewis and Clark Leadership Circle of the Frazier History Museum gathered at the spectacular arts and crafts home (which is another story at another time) of Kevin Borland and Leonard Napolitano on Cherokee.

The purpose of the get-together was to welcome Penelope Peavler as the new CEO of the Louisville Science Center.

Penny, formerly with the Speed Museum, has all sorts of wonderful new ideas to take the Frazier in various different and unusual directions.

Let’s hope decorative arts is one of them. Also there was Meg Gammage-Tucker, the Frazier’s new Development Officer who previously served at the Indianapolis Museum of Art for many years and then briefly had a short stint in Atlanta.

Madelyn Abramson made up as a lion for the Butterfly Society Lunch where she was presented with the “Spirit of Sug Award.”

Neither my son nor Karen seems to realize how difficult it will be to bring a stepparent into this situation, especially with a new baby on the way. One of the boys will have to give up his bedroom when the baby arrives. I’m concerned that the boys will be overwhelmed by this when they have not yet been able to effectively deal with the death of their mother.

I think this relationship has moved too fast and they are clueless about how all this will affect the boys. My son has told me I need to “get over it, it’s his life and his kids.” Is there anything I can do to help the boys process all of this and adjust to the new situation? – WISE LADY IN THE SOUTH DEAR WISE LADY: Nowhere in your letter have you mentioned that the boys are depressed or acting out. They probably like Karen or the relationship wouldn’t have lasted as long as it has.

It appears that in trying to be helpful, you may have come across as negative or judgmental. If that’s true, apologize to your son and suggest that if the adjustment becomes difficult for his boys, a family therapist could help to nip any problems in the bud. Then cross your fingers and hope it isn’t necessary.

If you would prefer not to attend because you can’t stand the smell of the smoke, stay home.

But do not prevent your children from knowing the family. Assuming they don’t have health issues, one evening of exposure to cigarette smoke shouldn’t be harmful.

••• DEAR ABBY: I have been married for a year.

Before we met, my husband posted pictures of his ex on his Facebook page photo album. I have asked him to remove them because I feel insulted and hurt. I don’t think it’s right his keeping them on the page now that we are married. I feel it’s disrespectful to our marriage and inconsiderate.

We have been fighting over this, and it’s ruining our relationship. Can you enlighten me about this? – NO. 1 LADY IN SAN FRANCISCO DEAR LADY: I don’t blame you for being upset. By now your husband should have outgrown the need to publicize his previous conquests. While your husband may be thinking that keeping the pictures up makes him look worldly, what it shows is his insensitivity to the woman he married, and I think that’s sad for both of you.

SPOTLIGHT The Kentucky College of Art + Design at Spalding University Gala The Kentucky College of Art + Design at Spalding University will celebrate its talented students and honor Christina Lee Brown for her efforts to promote the sustainability movement in the Louisville community at its 2015 gala at the school’s 849 Gallery on October 28. The gala will feature student art sale, cocktails from Brown Forman, food courtesy of Rye as well as entertainment by jazz band Billy Goat Strut. We caught up with gala chair, Owsley Brown III to hear more about what makes the school so special as well as hear about this year’s gala.

You’ve been involved with the school since its inception in 2009. What made you want to get involved in the cause so much?

I think it was an obvious fit in terms of timing, to give Louisville a dedicated college of art and design. In that sense, there is so much good and creative energy unfolding my whole life, and to witness it become more and more dynamic has

been such a thrill. As a result of that energy, the city deserved an art school.

It must be so satisfying to have seen the school grow so much, from nine students in 2009 to 140 being enrolled this year in the biggest class to date.

It’s super satisfying. It feels that in a very organic way, the city and state and region are responding to a deep desire that people have here to explore fully what an arts education can offer and then apply it. I think that’s the other exciting aspect in all of this, that there is an application to this kind of education.

These graduates are going to go out and get jobs, so it’s not like they are any less than very employable.

What can people expect at this year’s gala?

We have an incredible gala committee, and they put together a tribute to the city. It’s creative instincts, it’s sustainability leanings and how those things go together. So I think it underlines also that creative people are also really great problem solvers. So thematically, I think this will be a real expression of the school on that level. In terms of the evening, we’re not doing a traditional sit down dinner as we have done in years past, but instead we are trying to exhibit the theme of the event. So it will be an experiential evening and hopefully very lively.

And there will be a student art sale too, correct?

Absolutely, we have to foster a creative economy where people value creative expression and, amongst other things, they are willing to pay for that work. I’m excited that the school can really be woven into the fabric of the community and make it a really valuable partner of the greatest teachers in the city while also creating a culture where we partner with the best museums too. And I think we are already kind of doing that. VT Tickets are priced at $135 or a bundle of eight for $1,000. To buy tickets or donate, visit kycad.spalding.edu or call 502.873.4358.

The path to the park The vast majority of haunted houses in Louisville charge roughly $20 for entry. At Asylum, the same is true if you choose to go through just one attraction. If you are interested in getting the biggest bang for your buck, Asylum offers an all-access pass that allows you entry into three of their attractions for $28 or four attractions for $35. The main attractions are spread out across 42 acres of land, and each offers a diverse range of scares and thrills to customers of all ages.

Asylum started out as a single haunt called Darkness Falls that was in operation for two seasons before expanding into a “Scream Park” in 2011. The park now offers four main attractions as well as special features such as the Slenderman challenge on October 22 and 29, a frightening game of finding clues and escaping evil before time runs out.

is lined with pinstriped booths that have the look and feel of carnival attractions. The air is filled with soft, eery music that sends a foreboding sense of thrill and fear down your spine.

To whet your appetite, The Carnival of Lost Souls offers free performances from fire breathers, contortionists, jugglers and sword throwers.

You can choose your fate in the main arena which rests at the top of a hill, just past The Carnival of Lost Souls’ performance space.

To your left is Xterminate, a mutant-themed game of laser tag in which the only way to win is to accumulate headshots and find your out.

Next to Xterminate is Zombie City, an award-winning theatrical haunt in which you are the main character of a story that builds upon itself each year. This year, the haunt invites you to participate in an urban “military” mission as newly recruited zombie hunters. Participants are sorted into groups of 15 for an attraction that coincidentally runs approximately 15 minutes. After reviewing your mission, you are boarded single file onto a bus equipped with window-mounted paintball guns that are at your disposal throughout the course of the ride. Your goal is to shoot as many moving and dormant zombies as possible while your witty, half-crazed driver takes you on a tour of a town on the outskirts of Zombie City.

Owner Richard Teachout.

way to escape Zombie City alive is to outrun zombies, outwit sinister characters and acquire a security badge before you near the end of your journey.

Darkness Falls, the haunt’s original attraction, gives you a taste of most every fear imaginable. From goblins and ghouls to clowns and crazed cannibals, this haunt leads you on a long and windy path through dark woods filled with surprises around every turn. While the actors are not allowed to touch you, they will get close enough to make you squirm. As soon as you think an actor has retired from stalking you, a twig snaps nearby; the stench of sweat grows closer; the feel of warm breath prompts the hair on the back of your neck to bristle.

Actors utilize silence, whispers, screams and loud bangs to keep you on your toes. Near the end of the path, the pungent smell of burning gas leads into the age-old tradition that haunts are notorious for: the revving of a chainsaw. It is a tradition because it is consistently effective at making groups run through the exit as the chainsaw cuts dangerously close at their heels.

Asylum Haunted Scream Park has created a whole new world filled with humor and horror in which all are welcome. The park gives consumers the opportunity to leave their everyday existence behind and step in to a world far more majestic and adventurous than their own. So this weekend, gather your family and friends and treat them to a haunting experience unlike any other at just one or maybe even all five facets of this terrifyingly unique attraction. VT For more information and tickets to Asylum Haunted Scream Park, visitasylumhaunts.com.

The plot line in Zombie Hunting ties in to the story played out in Zombie City. Both attractions provide patrons with a sense of realism as they are placed in the middle of a world overrun by zombies and an evil scientific organization called Paragon. You and your group may choose to interact with a variety of interesting characters ranging from mad scientists and military officials to zombies and other victims of Paragon’s experiments. The only

Baumgart has a ton of food options at Well at Deere Farms – a 20 minute drive from downtown Louisville in Lanesville, Indiana, you can get really lost...and it’s really fun.

Now in its eighth season, Deere Farms have been operating a giant corn maze and pumpkin patch for families to come in the fall. The maze – split into three different levels of difficulty is the real crown jewel of the area. Operated by owner Jim Baumgart, the kiddy maze is designed as a walk through for young children, while the family maze ramps up the difficulty a touch P H O T O S B Y C H R I S H U M P H R E Y S | T H E V O I C E -T R I B U N E

Deere Farms, such as smoked pork chop sandwich as well as pumpkin ice cream and a pumpkin caramel cheesecake that has wowed the crowds for the past few years.

But outside the maze and eating delicious food, there is so much more to do at Deere Farms. A giant pumpkin patch where individuals can pick and buy their own pumpkins is on hand, while elsewhere there is a plethora of activities for kids and adults alike. The inner child in me truly frolicked in wonder in the box of corn – a giant cart filled to the brim with dry corn kernels. But we should warn you, if you enter the box of corn, be prepared to find pesky corn on your

person for the next six months. It will be in your shoes, socks and other places where the sun doesn’t shine!

A real highlight though is the animal farm that Baumgart transports people to on a cart pulled by a tractor. There, a donkey (Buddy) awaits, as do friendly sheep, pigs, as well as a slew of ducks and geese and one particularly arrogant cockerel that Baumgart had to chase after. While not promoted specifically as a petting zoo, the animals are incredibly friendly, and hence very family friendly.

For Baumgart, the last eight years have been a blast, if only because it’s proved to be a perfect chance to return to his roots.

“Doing this has meant I get back out into nature,” he explains. “You can take the boy out of the country but you can’t take the country out of the boy, and so after 35 years in computers and coming back to the farm, I’m as happy as I could be.” VT Deere Farms is situated at Deere Farms Corn Maze & Pumpkin Patch, 1565 St. John’s Church Road, Lanesville, Indiana. For more information visit deerefarms.com or call 812.952.1629. Admission is $9 for adults and $6 for children aged 3-12. This includes access the maze as well as a number of other attractions.

So what’s the appeal for Ghrist?

“Initially it was fun for my wife and I because we had kids,” he explains. “I was going to stop when they left home, but we had too many people who stopped by and would tell us how much they enjoyed seeing it each year and thank us for doing it. So we just kept going.”

ter and what the display means to locals, the show went on.

While Ghrist loves what he does – deriving clear pleasure from seeing countless families make the annual pilgrimage to his house on Halloween, time is catching up. He turns 64 this year, and the physical toll of a month laying out a display in his front yard is catching up. Last year, Ghrist injured his back falling off a ladder and was relegated to the sidelines with the distinct chance that he would not be able to make a display for the first time in nearly two decades. But as a testament to his charac-

And it’s perhaps this kind of sentiment that keeps Ghrist going – especially on the creative side. When The Voice-Tribune met him, he was busy putting the finishing touches to this year’s edition – a scaled down version of the Titanic. In fact, for Ghrist, the planning for his display starts on the day of the previous year’s Halloween.

tree next to him. There is Indiana Bones – an intrepid skeleton explorer climbing up the side of the house. Close by is mad scientist Leland La Moon, who “Mixed the wrong stuff and he went ka-boom!” Aside from those, there is also a plane that’s crashed into his roof, a live band that plays on Halloween night and a bunch of other surprises for those looking to be scared and wowed.

“I wasn’t going to be able to do the display that year” recalls Ghrist. “But there were three teams of people: my neighbours, my friends and some ex co-workers came out at different times and put it up for me.”

“I’ll always try to add a thing each year,” explains Ghrist. “But now I’m at the point where I have to take something out,” he laughs, still recalling his first ever display, which featured a witch being burned at the stake, fake flames and smoke in place. “When we did that everyone freaked out and loved it.”

While Ghrist may not go on forever, the spirit of Halloween that he helped foster all those years ago will no doubt live on at Hillcrest. VT

In Ridley Scott’s “The Martian,” Matt Damon is stranded on Mars after his crew assumes he perished in a deadly storm during evacuation. The rest of the movie

impossible. Based on the novel by Andy Weir, “The Martian” cleverly grounds itself in the limitations of our scientific capabilities.

The result is a science-heavy optimistic adventure, like a pep talk to the human race to stop burying its head in the sand and start thinking about how to solve our problems. It achieves what “Interstellar” couldn’t, and Matt Damon’s involvement feels like a kind apology.

with cynical seventies thrillers like “The French Connection” or other works that demonstrated how frustrating and unresolved most mysteries are when certain stones are turned.

On the other hand, I saw an artistically stronger film with a much more cynical outlook on world problems.

“Sicario” explore the murderous psychological-terrorism that has resulted from the war on drugs.

It focuses on a young FBI agent (Emily Blunt), who encounters a situation so shocking she’s hardly reluctant when recruited to a special retaliation driven task force, despite its questionable leaders. As she and longtime partner (Daniel Kaluuya) are kept annoyingly in the dark regarding the objective of their mission, their odd superiors assure her that it will result in taking down the Cartel leadership – so long as orders are followed.

Like “Silence of the Lambs,” this is a film that begins with a beautiful young woman attempting to venture into the darkness of a monstrous man’s mind – until the film knowingly shifts perspectives to allow us to see the monster’s point of view. Aside from that cinematic association, I might compare this film

This is a strong film filled with the tension and dread that its director, Denis Villeneuve, similarly stirred in the 2013 film, “Prisoners.” “Sicario” captures its desolate border country with awe and horror and also features a stellar cast, which includes Josh Brolin and Benicio Del Toro.

This is the kind of thriller that has built up so much potential energy that it has no need to indulge in its action. The trepidation we feel as our heroine continues to learn more disturbing facts leaves us fearing the inevitable savagery lurking around every corner.

This is one of the 2015’s best. VT

PUZZLES

pets of the week Five-year-old Willa is a Domestic Shorthair mix who would love to be an indoor kitty.

This lovely Calico is a little shy when you first meet her, but she craves attention and will lick and nibble you to ask for pets. Willa has lived her adult life as an outdoor cat with a small outbuilding to use in the winter, but that’s just not the life for Willa.

She wants an indoor life, filled with snuggles and time to nap in a sunspot. Would you have the time to get to know this sweet girl and give her the home she deserves? She’s spayed, micro-chipped and upto-date on her vaccinations. Meet her today at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Dixie Feeders Supply adoption center, 10948 Dixie Hwy. Wilbur is a 7-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix with enough energy to make you think he was still a puppy. He loves to go on long walks and will run with you for longer than you’d think he could! He likes to keep one of his favorite toys close by. His toys are like a security blanket, and they keep him from getting too nervous when other dogs are close by. Wilbur has a lot of love to give and would also love playing with you after a busy day. Wilbur is also neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on his vaccinations, so please stop by and see him at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Dixie Feeders Supply adoption center, 10948 Dixie Hwy.

For more on any of our adoptable pets, please call 502.366.3355 or visit kyhumane.org
