Today I installed the new sound track and reprogrammed the Pumpkin King. It”s a killer. Our friend and co-worker Chris P. is a king himself when recording a special needs track. He has talent beyond his years. It opens with Metalica and closes with a spine tingling chill. I almost have it memorized myself and [...]
Ready or not here we go! October 16th tommorow and we are open! The crew put on all the blood, spiderwebs, and graveyard dust today to finally finish up the haunt for opening. I’m impressed and I know you will be to. Animatronics are running fierce, Lighting looks great, Decor and sets are amazing, and sounds [...]
Back for 2009. A local Pro Photography Team has taken on The photo op at the haunt for 2009. After us scaring the bejeezus out of you, you’ll be able to get a photo keepsake done right on site.
I should have mentioned it a long time ago. But this year, like past years, we have a School group running the concession again. Each year we donate the space to a group that is looking to raise funds for projects , trips, or other expenses occurred in a school year. This Year Belmont Elementary School [...]
Insurance inspections yesterday went very well. Our tour with the rep from our provider had a very sharp eye and he didn’t miss a thing. The list of deficiencies were at a minimum. In fact they are pretty much addressed already. Now we can put in all the dangerous stuff!…Just kidding!

We entertain large crowds and with that comes many safety regulations we must abide by. Our Inspectors will walk [...]
Hush Hush was all that could be said prior to today’s events. Top Secret. Today we hosted MTV to do a Filming of a Halloween segment they will run October 30 and with them were two stars from the Twilight Movies! Nikki Reed and Kellan Lutz joined a film crew and made the walk through [...]
It’s almost a scary sound effect in itself. As I add each animatronic and set it on test the air consumption rises. By the time all the tricks are installed and running you can hear the air rushing through the lines. It’s almost like a GIANT snake.(EEWWW, that would be creepy, maybe next year?) All be it, [...]
Last Night we called in all the Monsters for our annual orientation. Happy to see so many returning faces from 2008 as well as so many new faces for the coming scare season. I have to give credit to Tia, our assistant store manager for putting all this together. She swam her way through stacks [...]
Myself and crew picked away all weekend in the final preps for opening day. Sometimes all the little things pile up soooo deep I think that we will never see the light again. I took Monday off and stayed clear of haunt. Enjoyed a great day with my wife and kids at The Apple Barn. Not [...]
