I go every year and love it. In about ten years or more I have only missed one year of it in Orlando. I had a deadline to make that same week. It is a great show to attend. I do not only haunt related projects but other types of as well. The show is not focused on haunt related attractions but all attractions in general. There is more than enough there for haunters to see and get inspired by. I would definitely recommend going. Is anyone having any haunt industry socials?
FYI... I'm super sick and I've been sick for like 8 days straight. But I'm heading out to IAAPA in the AM we are in booth 248 stop by and see us. Our entire booth is haunted this year... its pretty much all we've been building the last year. The mini golf business has dried up somewhat and things seems to be shifting back to Halloween. So this year we went Halloween... I think you really like our booth!
I wondered if anyone heard of any haunt related mixers? I have heard that Transworld was having one at Adobe Gilla's but have not seen any times posted. Does anyone know if this is still happening? Please let me know. I hope to meet some of you there.
Tons of haunters here today... Leonard pickle stopped by along with his wife talked a little hauntcon which is coming up soon. Allan saw him, Erebus, house of torment, 13th floor, state vile haunted prison the list goes on. Everyone is going to the Mexican place tonight. See ya there. Larry
And here comes the pictures... while I'm uploading pics which btw I'll upload over the next couple days. I'm really tired think I'm going to hit the hay... the IAAPA show wasn't really different than last year nothing really exciting. There was a few things new there was a company there with an ap to schedule your employees that I think a lot of haunters liked. Someone was selling glow in the dark exit signs, there was a lot of cool eye candy but overall the show was very slow not that many people really.
There was a lot of new games there but in terms of stuff for haunts yes there was tons of stuff there but new from years past not really so much.
Still its a great show for haunters to go to especially if they hadn't been before.
