Hi Haunters,
The title of this thread is the same as an article I wrote coming out in your next issue of HauntWorld Magazine. I wanted to do something really big for our 25th anniversary of Spookywoods, I believe we have come up with something never done in haunting before.
I will not ruin the article by posting all the details here, but I wanted to tease all you non subscribers a bit with the first paragraph, maybe this will get you to sign up for a subscription when you realize your missing out on ideas that can change your business with one article!
If you’ve been haunting for a good amount of time there will come a point when you realize your attraction’s attendance will plateau simply due to throughput capacity. Sure, you can be creative with ticket options and side attractions but when you have a line 2 hours long just waiting to buy tickets, you begin to look for ways to keep your business growing. It was our desire to increase attendance and to do so without a major overhaul. In 1999 we started by expanding into daytime events with a corn maze, pumpkin patch and various small “up charge” activities such as kid’s rides and then again in 2008 with our day/night Christmas event. That was just the beginning! After years of research we have now added a 1.5 mile long zip line adventure across 15 sky towers throughout our farm. During the haunt season our guests will fly through special effect laser lighting above the haunted woods and over our corn maze.
Imagine flying over our ghost town and through the woods with the screaming of the haunt customers going through our haunt 50 feet below you as you zip overhead.
Read the complete article along with some graphics from our engineered CAD drawings in the next issue of HauntWorld.
I hope you are inspired by our new attraction to push your event to the next level to think WAY outside the box and promote to your existing customer base your next fresh idea.
