Haunted Hayride Memories: A Look Back at Our Spooky Community Fun at Ka-Hoon Campground đđ
This **Vault Video** takes you back to one of our favorite community events â the **Haunted Hayride** hosted right here at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center!**
The hayride wasnât just about spooky fun â it was about **bringing people together**. All hayride proceeds went right back into the community, helping fund **projects and improvements** that everyone could enjoy together.
Alongside the hayride, we filled the night with **live bands**, **campsite-to-campsite trick-or-treating**, **games**, **bonfires**, **potlucks**, and more. Every year brought something a little different â new faces, new frights, and new memories.
Whether you were here for the music, the laughter, or the screams echoing through the desert night, each Haunted Hayride was a reminder of what makes this community so special â people coming together under the stars.
đ» **Each yearâs events vary**, and the Hayride may or may not return, so **stay tuned for our 2026 schedule!** You never know what spooky surprises might be waiting in the desertâŠ

đ„ Raking the Desert for Magic! Preparing the Sand for Our Rangoli of Intentions đ
Preparing the Desert for the Rangoli: Raking the Ground for Our Night of Intentions
As we prepare for our **Rangoli celebration on November 1st** at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**, the desert is becoming our canvas. This night is all about **manifesting goals, intentions, and personal transformation** beneath the wide New Mexico sky.
Instead of using chalk or powders, weâll be **drawing directly into the sand**âletting the natural earth guide our designs. Each participant will create their own **Rangoli of Intentions**, using simple tools or even their hands to carve symbols that represent what they want to attract, release, or change in their lives.
To prepare, weâve begun our **first raking of the ground**, softening and smoothing the desert floor so itâs ready for creation. The process itself feels symbolicâclearing away the old to make space for new energy.
When the Rangolis are complete, weâll gather around the **bonfire**, dance, and celebrate the intentions weâve set together. The night will blend **art, energy, and community**, bringing light and purpose to the desert sands.
Join us for this one-of-a-kind off-grid experienceâwhere the earth itself becomes the medium for manifestation.

Just 2 Days After Stroke Surgery⊠He Sings Again â You Wonât Believe This Comeback!
Rising from the Ashes â A Week of Strength, Music, and Miracles**
This past week has been one of the hardest weâve ever faced here at Ka-Hoon Campground & Colquhoun Entertainment. On Monday, our own Advocatus Diaboli suffered a subcortical strokeâunexpected, frightening, and life-altering. The days that followed were filled with uncertainty, hospital visits, and prayer. By Friday, he was in surgery to repair the artery causing the damage.
Doctors werenât sure what the outcome would be. They even warned us he might not be able to sing again. But if you know Advocatus Diaboli, you know he doesn’t give up easily.
Just two days after surgery, he defied the oddsâhe sang again. Not at full strength yet, but close. And if you watch the video, you’ll see the fire is still there.
This isnât just a story about musicâitâs about grit, healing, and the power of community. Weâre beyond grateful for those whoâve stood by us, sent love, and kept the music alive.
The desert can be quiet, but strength grows in the silence. Weâre still here, still singing.

**Shamshiniâs Solo Debut & St. Patrickâs Celebration at Mini Red Velvet Underground**
Brent (aka Advocatus Diaboli ) and I ( Melodie , moderatorâor whatever Advocatus decides to call me) have been battling a stubborn cold. Thankfully, weâve tested negative for flu and COVID, but that didnât stop Advocatus from pushing through when he was supposed to rest his voice.
Since he was *supposed* to take the night off from singing, Shamshini stepped up for her first solo live rehearsalâand she did great! It was a fun and unique experience, though, of course, Advocatus Diaboli just couldnât resist joining in.

Youâre invited to experience the magic of ** Advocatus Diaboli, Shamshini, and the animatronic band**â**Spliff on bass, Roach on drums, and Blunt on keyboards**âlive at **Mini Red Velvet Underground in Albuquerque**.

As the holiday season begins, we reflect on the joys and challenges of living off-grid in this unique landscape. From hosting events like the Halloween Hootenanny to preparing for our upcoming HORRORDAZE Extravaganza on December 21st, itâs been a year filled with community, creativity, and hard work.
This Thanksgiving, we’re especially grateful for the support and enthusiasm of our members, guests, and friends. Whether youâve joined us for camping, events, or just stopped by to enjoy the desert views, your presence has made Ka-Hoon a truly special place.
Today, we’ll celebrate with a turkey dinner shared among neighbors, embracing the spirit of togetherness that defines our off-grid lifestyle. Even as we navigate the quirks of desert livingâlike setting up new solar systems or braving chilly nightsâweâre reminded that the connections we forge with others make it all worthwhile.
From all of us at Ka-Hoon, we hope your Thanksgiving is filled with warmth, good food, and cherished moments with loved ones. If you’re planning your next adventure, donât forget to check out our unique camping experiences and exciting events.

Halloween Hootenanny & Dance of the Dead: Live Performances by Advocatus Diaboli & Grim Leafer Band!
Yesterday, we took the day off and relaxed by watching football with our neighbors. After dropping Anne off at work, we enjoyed some downtime, caught a few games, and did a few small tasks around the house. It was a nice break, especially after the excitement of Saturdayâs Music in the Desert Talent Show and Karaoke.
This week is going to be busy with appointments and Anneâs work schedule. We also have to take care of a few things, like putting new brakes on the car. Most importantly, weâll be spending a lot of time rehearsing, as ** Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band ** has some upcoming shows! Weâve got a few new songs to introduce, and weâre fine-tuning all the new conversions weâve made. During Saturdayâs show, we found an error in one of the songs, but it ended up being a funny moment. Weâll definitely be fixing that oneâbut we might just keep the mixed-up version for laughs!
**Upcoming Performances for Advocatus Diaboli **:
– **Saturday**: Halloween Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
– **November 1st**: Halloween Dance of the Dead at Red Gorilla Studios
