If you’re a Philadelphia hockey fan, you know all about the Flyers mascot Gritty. Even though no one really knows WHAT Gritty is, the entire city embraces him as one of their own. Seeing Gritty on the street might make you think he was scary. This leads us to Gritty’s latest adventure at Eastern State Penitentiary in Pennsylvania. He wants to audition to appear in their annual haunted attraction! @halloweenatesp is he hired? #Halloween #hauntedhouse #horror #halloweenatesp #scary #festival #attraction #fall #philly #flyers #hockey ♬ original sound – HalloweenatESP If he passes his audition, you might see Gritty at Eastern State Penitentiary’s Halloween Nights haunted attraction. The only potential problem is that Gritty is such a well-known and beloved part of the city that he might not be as scary as a zombie. They could put a white sheet over him and turn him into a hulking ghost. His bright orange coloration makes him the right color to be a walking pumpkin. Gritty’s audition video was scary enough, but it might not be sufficient to give him an edge against the competition. Image from TikTok. Gritty is seven feet tall, bright orange, perpetually smiling, and his googly eyes never seem to be in the right place. His name comes from the team’s “gritty determination.” The mascot has become a beacon of goodwill throughout the city. He has done a promotional visit to the Philadelphia Zoo and found friendship with Wally, the emotional support alligator. Images from TikTok and Instagram. Even if Gritty is not scary enough to earn a role at the haunted attraction, he may appear there during the spooky season. As a goodwill ambassador, he tends to show up in unlikely places.
