Toy figures of skeletons, bats, bleeding white ladies,
witches, and other scary creatures.
These are just some of the eye-catching scenery at station 2
in Boracay that people, residents and foreigners alike, are taking pictures of.
All Souls’ Day is yet to come, but some of the resorts in
the area have already started decorating with Halloween themes as an additional
tourist attraction.
One of the resorts’ Dining Supervisor, Wilson, said that
they have been preparing for this day for some three years.
Wilson added that the “props” they have prepared are
considerably costly and were carefully made, that they spent a number of days
making it, and it would be such a waste to just remove it after the Halloween.
Aside from the panoramic lighting every night, it also very
noticeable, how they artistically decorated their “props,” designed with the
help of their female Boss who is an interior decorator.
Despite its theme
which is “horror,” the children, instead of getting scared, are conversely
enjoying it, posing and taking pictures.
Meanwhile, some shops at Brgy. Balabag are also starting to
sell masks of grotesque and or scary figures, which are quite expensive at
almost Php200 per piece, but is of a good quality assured the sales personnel.
On the other hand, the Catholic Church said that it is ok if
some people in Boracay have started with the activity, what matters, it added,
is the presence of respect and giving importance to the memory of those loved
ones who had passed.
