Great pictures, Mike!

It was a fun time, but then you can't go wrong hanging with Midnight Syndicate and Precinct 13!!

Roger and I are looking forward to seeing you guys this weekend!

We are booked and ready to go!!!!

We have actors to watch on Friday night, which hopefully will be the start of a great contest tradition.

We have seminars to teach on Saturday.


Best...

Katie,
That came off a bit pointed.
What reasons do you have to think that the Scab5 would be unfair in our judging?



This is about encouraging excellence in improv acting in the haunted...

Tater,
LOL! I was pretty sure you wouldn't miss this opportunity. :)


Ben,
I think you might be on the money about that! What a wonderful start to MHC that would be.


I, and the rest...

Doing an "actor exchange" can be a fun and educating experience for the actors and the owners. There are numerous benefits and lessons that will be gained from something like this.

However, I...

My stepchildren's 3rd grade teacher does a "wax museum" in the classroom that is very similar. The students pick a subject, research them, create a short and hopefully memorizeable biography and...

Lookin' GOOD, Jason!!!

Have fun Rex and Jeff!!

The rest of the 5 will be wishing we were there having fun with you. ;)

I know everyone is rushing around getting ready for Transworld. I can't wait to hear how it goes.

However, I didn't know whether Barry had posted that the Seminars tracks for MHC are up, so I...

I didn't say there was anything wrong with exchanging war stories.

I said that those who are proud of putting themselves or others in harm's way are projecting an incorrect image onto those who do...

If there are any out there, I haven't heard of them.


Unfortunately, the amount of women who will really get into such stuff is probably not enough to make a profit worth them trying to start...

Whether Jonathon has this is different than whether haunts have it. It doesn't set an image that I necessarily want furthered in this industry, but it doesn't offend me, nor do I see it offending...

While we all have war stories to tell, if you have more than one or two instances of being injured by a customer then you need to adjust something in your "acting" style. It is NOT something to be...

That is it exactly!

I've done theater and, obviously, haunted attractions and they are so completely different!! I get stage fright for both, horribly, but they are two different feelings of ick...

The story about the knees made me shiver. Ick! I could hear my own knees landing on that concrete....


As for the 2nd EEP!!!

That is indeed memorable.

Isn't it nice to have a discussion that isn't a flame war and actually has something to do with running a haunt? ;)


Finding a consistent acting and make-up staff is a daunting task. Some of...

That is a whole new industry idea. A haunted dating service!!

Ew, nevermind. *shudder*


So, did it help at all? :cool: You could probably patent that and sell the idea to other haunt...

This touches on a subject that is at the heart of some of the inherent problems in the haunted attraction industry.
Are we employees? Is this about creative freedom or a job that happens to...

Thanks, Tater!!

Hope your October is going well.

We are so excited about this weekend. I can't wait to see Mystery Manor. I'm looking forward to scaring me some Nebraskans.

Our costumes...

In my opinion, and I realize it probably isn't a popular view, clowns have become incredibly cliche in haunted houses.
They don't surprise anyone anymore, very rarely does one clown really look...

The only thing that scares me about clowns is that they are way to overdone in haunted houses.

If anyone will be in Omaha this weekend, the Scab5* will be visiting and performing at the Mystery Manor. We are very excited to help Wayne and Mark celebratel their 25th scary anniversary!

Come...

Our thread trickled off, though not without a good start.

How do we get more owners and more actors involved?

How do we keep the discussion more involved in here than just "what should I say...

When you say "get the jump on him", do you mean get away from him or you were trying to startle him?

If you were trying to get away from him, then good for you. You need to discuss this situation...
