MEMO FROM THE OFFICE OF MINISTER KINGSLEY SHACKLEBOLT

10 November 2003 I apologise that this statement comes later than I would have intended. I want everyone to know that this matter - these nightmares, these inexplicable spots, and most importantly, these murders - are being taken extremely seriously. Members of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and the Department of Mysteries are working diligently, extending their hours to make the solving of these cases a top priority. We have received intelligence that this is affecting muggles as well, but how widespread that is is not clear. We've already asked for people to come forward with helpful information, and we reiterate that request. If anyone needs assistance contacting or otherwise reaching out to various members of their family, please contact our offices and we will assist. In the meantime we ask that you remain cautious and safe, especially those of you suffering from these nightmares. -Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt

( You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best... )

Characters: OPEN TO ALL. Please tag with your own character(s) when you comment/they arrive.
Setting: The Ministry Atrium, Level 8, beginning at 7 PM and running until midnight
Summary: It's the Halloween ministry gala/party! Come in costume (muggle or otherwise), in elegant wear, or in dress robes. The event begins at 7PM with refreshments, appetizers, finger foods and cocktails. Desserts are served later in the evening, but the cocktails remain available all night long. There is no full dinner, as it would be quite unwieldy with the amount of people expected to attend. The dance floor is open, a live band is playing, and the atmosphere is almost aggressively pleasant. For safety reasons, wands are being checked (surrendered) at the entrances. Unless your character is on-duty at the party, he or she will not have her wand on his/her person after entering.
Rating: Let's go with R for now, as there will be some dark occurrences later in the evening. We will update as necessary.
