The 14th Body

Over two years in the making!  In 2006 Dale End Farm had a letterboxing story to share.  A true life adventure of a late night encounter with two letterboxers she had heard of but never met, Oldhounder and Siamese.  She even references the story in the first Fright Night video in 2006. The story was finally captured on video at Fright Night 4 in Gorham, Maine in October of 2008. Dale End Farm is joined by Oldhounder himself for her comedic story of a late night encounter.  (You too can visit the Yggdrasil Letterbox Series)

Fright Night 4 Bloopers and Outtakes

What do you do after you have filmed and watched hours and hours of video footage?  You go back and pick out all the mistakes, bloopers, funny bits, and random events that didn’t make the cut, but are too funny to go unseen.  Thanks to all the letterboxers in this video for allowing us to giggle at your expense, we love you.  This video was shot at the Fright Night 4 gathering in Gorham, Maine in 2008.

Fright Night 4

Fright Night 4 took place in Gorham, Maine on October 25, 2008. The following video highlights a small portion of that event. Jackbear, in disguise, as Geraldo Rivera filmed a few of the attendees and events during the daytime gathering, capturing some shocking video that rivals his work on Al Capone’s Vault, his embedded tour in Iraq, and his daytime shock show. The following is rated PG-13 for some adult innuendo. (The movie file (.mov) is large in size, so click on the image below and give it a few minutes to stream ahead to avoid lots of stops and starts, or simply click on “Download” in green below the image and let it download the movie to your computer and watch it later (Quicktime recommended.)
