The fourth edition of Scream, a Halloween-themed party, took place last Saturday at the Mas Camp venue, drawing a vibrant crowd of university and college students. Attendees showcased their creativity with an array of costumes, ranging from eccentric professionals to iconic superheroes. The venue was transformed into a spooky wonderland, with tunnels adorned with skeletons, bats, spiders, and other Halloween-themed decorations. The musical lineup was a perfect blend of Halloween classics and contemporary hits, including Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller,’ Bobby Pickett’s ‘Monster Mash,’ and Ray Parker Jr.’s ‘Ghostbusters.’ DJs like Jamdonn & TZ, Fyahman, and Vinchi kept the energy high with a mix of Afrobeats, dancehall, soca, hip hop, reggae, and pop. Micha’el Meggo, a University of the West Indies student dressed as the Mad Hatter, praised the event for its creative costumes and the moment of silence observed for Hurricane Melissa victims. Dajae Forrester, another student, highlighted the patrons’ commitment to their characters and the seamless music selection. Keifa Desnoes, the event’s director, expressed satisfaction with the growing support and creativity each year. Scream targets young adults and the working class, offering a unique Halloween experience in Jamaica. The event also collected donations for hurricane relief, demonstrating the community’s solidarity with those affected by the disaster.
