ABOUT THIS CACHE:

The Guardians of this Cache are Watching You!
(This cache is Monitored by a Closed-Circuit Security Camera system)

Every night is All Hallows Eve. This cache has a few unexpected twists you may not notice, when you find it. If a neighbor asks if you have found it yet, maybe that's because they have been clued in to what's going on! So, you better be on your best behaviour.

From the moment you begin searching for this cache, consider yourself a performer on stage and the neighborhood as your audience. If you perform well, I may nominate you for a Best Geo-Actor or Geo-Actress Award. If you cannot find this cache, then you must be about as blind as a Chiroptera! Got Echolocation?

Smile, you're on candid cache. The cache container is of an unusual design and you will find out just how different it is when you get there. Once you have arrived, it will be quite obvious where it's hidden. If you're very stealthy, you might not get caught by the cache owner!

While you are in Kitsap County, please take the time to hunt for other caches found at GeoCaching, GPS Games, LetterBoxing, NaviCache, and TerraCaching ! And when you get back on the road, don't forget to "Hang Up", "Slow Down" and "Smell the Roses".
