Yes folks, every year in the wonderful time of fall, Michael Oakley joins his friend David Miller in putting on Miller's thrillers haunted woods. You pay to get the living daylights scared out of you, and people love it. But no one loves it more than this guy:
Yes, that is Beka's handsome husband, and proud father of sweet Emery. Nights in October mean that Dad gets ugly, and has fun doing it. Michael does all of his own makeup, and even did many of the other's make up as well. He created this character name "beardsley". People that came last year, who came again this year, recognized Beardsley and were so excited to see him again! He has become quite the icon of halloween. Someone even this poster and put it up on Facebook!
Michael is the acting and entertainment coach for Miller's thrillers. He teaches all the spooks how to scare, when and when not to scare, and the rules and safety elements that go into scaring that no one thinks about. He also takes care of the "front of house" where people buy tickets, wait in line, and come in and out of the trails. He put together a drumming scene that he and another spook would perform every half hour for the guests waiting in line,
Here is a video of Michael in action. The crowd loved it!

Beka and Emery visted Michael at the woods a few times, and Emery, trying to be like dad, dressed for the occasion! But he always came out more cute than scary.
It was a fun season for all! If you are in TN, you should come out next year and let Michael scare you. If you are not in TN, stay tuned! We will blog about it next year as well!
Thanks for sharing with us!
Team Oakley
