do you hang out after a night of fun??

[hauntedghost]

does any one here go to like dineys and hangout and talk about there night?? or to a 24 hour place a talk about what happened that night with other actors at you haunt??


I have many times and it cool to see other people's faces and see us that we are still in our make up and all. it's fun and the hot drink is good too...

A group of us would always go out to a local tavern at least one of the weekend nights and hang out until last call. It's a good way to decompress and swap stories.

Usually on Halloween, a couple of us would show up in costume. Last year, one of our guys showed up in full Oderus costume from GWAR. Needless to say, he freaked out the other patrons...



He doesn't wear this in the park...

Yeah a few of the nights some of us actors and a bunch of the staff would go to Denny's, since it's in the same shopping center our haunt was in. Also I have totally seen pics of him in that costume online somewhere. lol.

Atleast one night out of the week every week all the veteran actors and our managers meet up at denny's as friends. We encourage new actors to join us but they are intimidated by us for some reason.
Its a blast, talk haunt, talk scares or just talk in general. Plus its nice to get some food in the belly.

IHOP or Steak n Shake every single night till early into the morning. lots of fun

[hauntman666]

We usually go to perkins after in costume/makeup talk about all the people we scared, what was the best scare, etc. Always a fun time

[freak 'n' stein]

Heck yes to Steak n Shake!!!!!! All-time favorite post-haunt restaurant...if not that, yes...Denny's or Ihop...

[ZodiacWarrior]

Denny's happened to be in our parking lot, hence our reason for going there. That and I think most Denny's are used to weirdos in face paint and the such coming in at ridiculous hours of the night. Plus in the area of Southern California we're in, we don't have too many 24 hour restraunts, especially near the location of our haunt. lol.

I loved the looks I got with my arms and head painted tiger stripe style looking either like I was horribly burned thanks to the fake blood drying and peeling or like I was a raptor the few nights it didn't peel. lol. The other good one was when we stopped at a local Taco Bell a few nights when our haunt was only open til 10. The guys working there were thouroughly entertained by all of us coming in looking like hell. lol.

i do feel the same way in the hole vet. actors part too.. i am lead actor and i do help the new ones and give them tips about there costums and all. so when i tell them to come with us to denny's, there like i don't know if i should go because you and other people are vets. i try my hardest to make them come and some times it works and they like it!! we also go to a place called sharris resturnt. it's like denny's.


you have to tip them at denny's!!!! there good poeple for putting up with people like us!!

in my front room and everyone talks comparing "notes" on the past night's fun and frustrations and the stupid things some customers said or did.
