Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but its very nearby. Please complete the eight "Monster Hunter" caches to compute the values for this caches location.

I want to party till the moon goes down! On those rare occasions when the stars are aligned just right and the moon turns blood red, there is a local landmark that becomes a beacon to lost souls. They come from near and far, lured to this place with false hopes of finding final peace. It is a trick, however. It is an unfathomable evil that brings them here.

As the monsters gather, hypnotic forces from the deepest bowels of the nether world begin to unite them in an unholy frenzy. Nobody is immune, for they begin to wail uncontrolably while contorting their broken bodies in a zombie dance. This Hell on earth is known as the Monster's Ball.

Mortals that unwittingly stumble into the Ball are quickly enveloped into the goulish gathering. Heed all warnings, for the Monster's Ball is your invitation to immortality as a tortured soul. A monster you will become -- never to be seen again.

The only way to escape this eternal evil is to find the booty hidden within the confines of this spooky place. Be quick, for the stars and the moon are jockeying for position. The Monster's Ball will soon begin. It's later than you think!
