Hi everyone! I'm a new scareactor and I got my first role as a Zombie last night. I'll post some things about what goes on backstage and on stage xD. I wont be naming my haunt but we are one of many haunts in my area with a good staff and amazing sets, anyway here goes!
Night 1 - Dress rehearsal! I and a few other were late auditions, Most of our other cast members had already audited and given parts. So we were kinda wild cards.....
Luckily we all got parts and i was given the role of a zombie in a graveyard, I was given my beaten up coat and got my makeup done.
It was close to show time so my makeup was kinda a rush job but i knew i had to make it work to my best. Luckily the guest for the dress rehearsal was from other local haunts, And my god.... Some of those guys and gals where hard to scare.... It was somewhat imitating when i tried my best but they just wouldn't scare. But i was able to startle them by banging on the window behind me ( got them everytime xD)
So far i love doing this and i had some good scares as a newbie.
Im going to invest a little money into my character and get some prosthetic and a little safety gear, If anyone has tips for me that would be great. Sadly with all the growling ( i loved getting into growl offs with some of the guest) i lost my voice a little but it was well worth it! Till next weekend ill eat ya later!
