**BREAKING: England Mall Makes Spine-Chilling Attempt at Ghostly World Record on Halloween**
DORCHESTER, ENGLAND – In a spook-tacular display of eerie enthusiasm, the Countryside Mall in Dorchester, England, is embarking on a ghoulish quest to shatter the world record for the largest gathering of people dressed as ghosts on Halloween. The bold endeavor, which promises to send shivers down the spines of all who dare to participate, aims to assemble a staggering 561 ghost-clad individuals in one haunted location.
As the witching hour approaches, mall-goers and ghost enthusiasts from far and wide are converging on the Countryside Mall, donning their most terrifying, translucent attire. The atmosphere is electric, with rumors of ghostly apparitions, spine-tingling sounds, and spectral sights sending shivers down the spines of even the most skeptical spectators.
“I’ve always wanted to be part of something truly monstrous,” exclaimed Emily Wraith, a local resident who’s been preparing her ghost costume for weeks. “I’m thrilled to be joining hundreds of fellow phantoms in this record-breaking attempt. Who knows, we might just summon a real-life ghost or two!”
Mall organizers have been busy preparing for the event, setting up a haunted backdrop, conjuring up eerie sound effects, and even hiring a team of ghostly photographers to capture the spectacle. A special “ghostly zone” has been designated for participants to take part in the record attempt, complete with spooky decorations and a haunted photo booth.
According to Guinness World Records, the current record for the largest gathering of people dressed as ghosts stands at 427, set by a group of enthusiastic spirits in a small town in Scotland. However, the Countryside Mall is confident that their event will send the previous record packing, and then some.
“We’re expecting a massive turnout of ghostly participants,” said event coordinator, Sarah Scream. “Our team has been working tirelessly to ensure that this event is nothing short of spectral. We’re predicting a sea of white sheets, a tidal wave of terror, and a howling good time for all involved!”
As the clock strikes midnight on Halloween, the Countryside Mall will attempt to unleash a ghostly gathering for the ages. Will they succeed in setting a new world record? Only time (and a few brave souls) will tell. Stay tuned for updates from the haunted scene!
