    Hello Haunt Community! We met many of you at TW and you were interested in seeing our space and progress. If you didnt meet us - here is our background.

    We are a group of 4 guys, all with a love for haunting and have 30 years of haunting experience (combined)

    We have just aquired a 20,000 square foot space in Appleton Wisconsin and have begun construction of 'OBLIVION HAUNTED HOUSE" Land of the damned.

    Our goal is to produce a quality, safe attraction to rival other professional haunts.
    Our first year budget is under 20,000 dollars and I think you will be supprised with our final product. Check back often as we post our progress and adventure of opening a new haunt.

    First photo is a shot of the main warehouse facing South. The upstairs you see in this shot will house costumes/props/wardrobe and Makeup as well as our main office and controll rooms. There are full heated bathrooms and break areas up there as well for all of our actors.

    Second shot is the main warehouse facing north. The entrance to the haunt is on the back left corner where we have constructed a large indoor 'industrial' q line area before entering the event on our 'hellevator' - custom made by ourselves.

    Third shot is all 4 of us when we put the first walls up in the back warehouse. This area has become our 'Asylum' and is near completion. More photos to come.

    The last photo is some of the guys relaxing after throwing some more wall panels up.

    Love to hear your feedback when we get more photos posted! Cheers!

    Thanks Peter! These shots are from February and we have come quite far! We are done with major construction and are working on scenic work now. Man it's great to work on your own event and do whatever you want

    First Shot - A shot of the main building from the Lot
    Second Shot - A shot of the main lot
    Third Shot - One of our 'Ticket Pods' being scenically detailed. I was quite proud of these. We are building them on 4'x4' pallets for easy moving.

    Fourth Shot - The entry of the haunt / q line area / Hellevator entrance
    Fifth Shot - Basemement scene out of the elevator. The Furnace is a drop panel.

    Here are some more shots. Note everything was shot under work lighting.

    First Shot - Another view of the basement scene
    Second - Entry to the 'Asylum'
    Third - The 'birthing room' in the asylum
    Fourth - Exam room wall detailing under construction. Cheap, easy and very cool. We are taking photocopies of old medical sheets I bought for dirt cheap at barnes and noble and wall paper paste (and flame retardant) them to the wall. Then we will take dirty water washes over the top of them and add all other scenic elements (I.E. cabinets, shelves, other posters, etc)

    Fifth - Outdoor staging area directly outside the main entrance.
