    (re) Introduce yourself

    Furby here; long time lurker/poster.
    I started haunting in ‘93 after few years of home/school haunts then in 05 moved from Bay area of CA to the Seattle area. I recently started Haunted Puget Sound to help promote the haunts in our area.
    I love the growth and professionalism the dark attraction industry has achieved.

    Hello From Captpete

    I have been an active member over on the halloweenforum for the last few years. I went from a long time home haunter to volunteering at a pro haunt.
    Nile Haunted House in Seattle, WA. I am looking forward to sharing ideas on this forum.
    Thanks, Pete

    Hi!

    Name: Victoria Stearns

    Age: 18

    Occupation: Student, Halloween Fanatic

    I have always loved Halloween. As far back as I can remember, my dad used to decorate the crap out of our house; he'd decorate the front yard as a graveyard and he'd decorate the front porch with mostly anything Halloween that he could find (spiderwebs, bats, demonic pumpkins, blacklights, strobe lights, etc.) and blast creepy Halloween sound effects and music that you could hear halfway down the street. From around the time that I could walk, I helped my dad in some way. My dad would dress up as the Wolfman and scare the living crap out of the neighborhood kids to make sure that they "earned" their candy.

    I am new to the haunt business, but I would like to start a home haunt sometime after I get out of college and I would like to try acting at some point.

    I live in Connecticut when I'm at school & I live in Massachusetts when I'm at home. I am insanely lucky to live near the world-famous Halloween Outlet (in Worcester, Mass.) and I go there several times a year.

    I have been in the stage and lighting buisness for 14 years now, but i have always been interested in SFX and creating something "impossible"
    Halloween have not been so popular in Norway, but it have start comming over here the last couple of years. so i have helped a local teen club creating something "scary" for the "kids". (like one person screaming boooo)
    Thanks to this forum and you guys we was able to step it up a little.... 7 actors and "kids" screaming and running out.

    So I guess I will use more time creating haunt props and step up our haunt more! (maybe we can go pro after a time )

    This is my boyfriend Doug and my first season scaring. We got in last minute basically... We began helping in the Hospital booth maybe two months ago, but have worked our butts off to learn as much as possible in a very short time. Last weekend was our first weekend, and we did such a good job we were asked to have our on section next year.

    I must say this forum has been ALOT of help with ideas and how-to's on even the simplest of details.

    Hello Hauntworld!

    My name is Liz Cacciatore, and I am a 25 year old traveling haunt actor/special effects makeup artist from northern Illinois. I have been in the industry for around 5 seasons, and can't get enough of it! I started out as an actor in 2007 at Realm of Terror Haunted House, and then in 2008 began getting my feet wet doing makeup. I've learned a lot as I go, and love to ask questions and lurk in the forums to gain the wisdom of the many of you that populate this "place." My boyfriend, Brad "A1" Cannon and I, have started our own traveling haunt acting troupe (known as the Haunted Spooky Kids, or for short, the Spooky Kids) and our goal is to see and act at as many haunts around the country as we can!

    Thanks for having me!
    Liz, aka 'Lizifur'

    Hello All. I have been a long time home haunter who has decided to go pro in 2013. I am in the Dallas market and understand that there are at least 3-5 new haunts opening in 2013. Still excited.

    Hey Guys!

    Hello everyone,

    My name is Corey, I'm 19 years old and currently attending school at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I have been involved with my parents haunt, BOOGERWOODS, for my entire life. Though I only started acting in it about 5 years ago. I currently run a chainsaw in the Doll House scene and I will be the first to tell you that it is the best job ever! Like most of the individuals on this page, I am a HUGE Halloween nut and look forward to October year-round.

    I am looking forward to being a part of a community that involves as big of haunt enthusiasts as me! <3

    This forum is priceless!

    Hi All,

    I just realized there was an intro thread so figure its a good time to add one.

    I have been visiting this forum for a few years but just recently registered. I am looking to start a haunt ideally in 2013 in central NY and have been browsing the forums to help in safety, planning, theme, etc.

    There is a lot to figure out but this has proved a great place to begin researching. This site has been a great help in that process.

    Wish all who are already underway a great season!

    Charlie
