The event was held Sunday and entices players to attempt to solve a serious of bizarre clues and follow a road-map found in Sunday's edition of The Herald to a secret treasure.
Sunday's hunt featured a horror movie theme in honor of Halloween where players joined Dave "Dracula" Barry for an afternoon of games, thrills and plenty of laughs
Dave Berry and Tom Schroder, two of the nation's top journalistic powerhouses, came up with clues that inevitably confound players, some of whom fly in from all over the country just for the occasion.
