Our haunt offers it, but we hardly ever get any bites on it. We do half off for a second time through. Ticket is ripped in half, ticket number is marked on their hand, and after they go through...

Sent ya an email, Larry!

To anyone vending at TransWorld this year....

I am the designer for a charity haunt in northern Illinois, St. Matthew House of Mayhem. I've been to the show before, but this is the first year HoM...

Hey all, I have a possibly dangerous idea for my opening room - an indoor corn maze. Because of that, I need to know a few things.

1. Where do I go to get corn stalks to make a maze?
2. Does...

Hey guys,

My haunt is in two separate sections with two different themes. For one of them, I'm toying around with the idea of having minimal to zero lighting in the scenes and the patrons only...

Not sure what you're budget is, but if you really don't want an actor (and I agree with Jim where you SHOULD have an actor controlling this) you could look into scare factory's hallway 2 hell. ...

The actually being underwater part makes it a little tricky. If the body is going to be thrashing, water is going to be spilling everywhere and the last thing you want is a slip hazard. With that...

Yeah, I pretty much NEED it all year round. The only "break" I take is the week after we tear down, and the space from Thanksgiving til New Years. But even then I'm jotting down ideas all the time....

I too use Sketchup. It's a WONDERFUL tool. What I've found helpful is to color code your wall panels, so you can see even more clearly how to build it when the time comes next year. (IE, 4' =...

I'm the designer for our haunt and it's taken awhile to finally get a good system down.

What's worked for me in the past is to, as Mysterio said, get the dimensions of the space you are going to...

If I were you, I'd hook all of the curtains up to a central point. I.E. they are all tied together, and, in the case of an emergency, you can cut something or push a button so they all fall down at...

Yes, you're correct in all you have to do is state somewhere, easily seen, that the patrons "may or may not" be recorded. To cover everything, just put a sign in front of your queue line saying...

^Awesome! Do you know which model? There a quite a few with the CX110 being the most popular.

I'm just looking for anything fairly cheap that records video well in low light.

Hey guys, I want to get a new video camera to make promotion videos and whatnot of the haunt... but it needs to be one capable of either shooting in extremely low light or have infrared capabilities....

Hey guys. One of my hallways is going to have an actor over the patrons on plexiglass. I need to know what thickness is safe to have an actor standing/banging on and where I can get the cheapest...

Anyone have some they can share? This will be the first year our haunt will utilize them and the online video I found uses a method I'm not totally fond of. I'm looking for plans using the quick...

Hey guys, trying to find a self-typing typewriter and cant seem to find anything online. Any help??

Because we unload the trailers the last weekend of September. We have one day of actor training/rehearsal. So in order to be open the first weekend of October (which we are not) we would have to...

No no no, not at all haha we have a medium-large size haunt that goes in the gym. So we can only use the gym space for the limited weeks.

So what I'm getting from this is to pretty much take...

So right now, the topic of discussion at our latest meeting was that of "why are we only open for 6 days?" Meaning, I was the one who brought it up. I joined the management team of St Matthew...

Yeah I use the physics plug in and it's very convenient. I love this program.

Sounds good!! Hope to hear from you soon!!
