Last year they brought you the hilarious "Coffee Schlock with AJ - Special Guest, Harold Camping”. This year, they have a cooked up a special little treat for your Halloween goodie bags: “The Twilight Sim: It’s a Bloomin’ Halloween!”

The animated short, filmed on Linden Lab’s Second Life game platform, was penned by professional stage and screen actress Gameela Wright Gameela Wright (AvaJean Westland in Second Life) and directed by K. DaVette See (Suzy Yue in Second Life). The film pokes gentle fun at Halloween tropes and pop culture icons while following the antics of four teens, a mad scientist, and a trio of precocious little girls. The hills have eyes, but they are REALLY cute eyes.

The film’s characters are brought to life using the talents of both Second Life based avatar “puppeteers”, and several Northern California Bay Area voice actors. Ms. Wright narrates, as her Second Life avatar AvaJean Westland, this alternately amusing and spooky tale which is sure to become a YouTube favorite.
