For the past 2 years I've been running a free homehaunt. With my 3rd year coming up I've got to the point where I'm unable to really grow in size and a lot of my scenes are limited due to space.
I've had several guests state they can't believe I don't charge and how much better my stuff is compared to local so called pro haunts.
Now I've talked with a couple local charities/groups that are very interested in me taking my experience, props and knowledge and using it for a fund raiser. Both think its a great idea and are more than willing to help out with a location, expenses as well as ensuring I get a cut for my efforts. I'm not considering this to generate a profit, but if I can supplement my addiction and help out others simultaneously why not.
I'd like to hear from others who run a haunt that raises money for a charity or other organization. Any experience or advise you could share will be greatly appreciated.
I'm not looking at home vs pro haunt info (i.e. insurance, building code, fire marshalls, haunt expectations for paying customers, etc...), but info related more to working with a group/partner if you will. What headaches came along, what types of things should I consider, etc...
Thanks in advance
