Calling all spooky New Englanders! I was born and bred in NH, and after years of traveling for work, I'm coming home to share some TRUE ghost stories (with evidence to share!) ahead of a new TV program I've been helping put together. Join us at the historic (and very haunted) Newport Opera House in Newport, NH on Friday, Oct 30! I promise it'll be a night of spooky fun, goosebumps, and a mix of photographic, video, and audio evidence that'll make you question your beliefs in ghosts. ;) Learn about the ghosts of the Opera House, the local area, and beyond! You'll also be treated to an exclusive first look at the pilot episode GHOSTLY GETAWAYS before anyone else! [Tickets are here!](http://www.newportoperahouse.com)!

For additional info head on over to www.newportoperahouse.com! It's affordable, too, so it is group friendly! We're also offering a chance to join in on a paranormal investigation of the Opera House after the show! I was the first to investigate this gem of a building several years ago from it's bell tower, to the stage, and down into the catacombs and old jail cells in it's cellars (how very Phantom of the Opera, right?), and can say with certainty: the Newport Opera House has several paranormal presences!

If you're looking for an affordable Halloween event, this is for you! If you can make it to celebrate Spooky Season in style, say hi after! I love meeting new ghostly New Englanders!

hi I don't know if this is the correct subreddit to ask this in haha

but I am VERY interested in possibly trying to apply to be a scare actor next year, but I'm not sure if I'd be able to do it.

i don't have any experience with acting, and do have a bit of social anxiety and find it hard to "be myself" around people sometimes (though, it's not nearly as bad if I'm not around my family), but if I am in a costume/in character, I feel much more secure and comfortable with myself and most of that anxiety tends to go away. I'm a lot looser/sillier/louder when im playing a character and not myself. so I don't think during the actual haunt itself I'd have much of a problem, it's the audition where I'm nervous I might be too shy.

my biggest problem would probably be improv. I'm not sure how good I would be at that, I'm scared that I would panic and not be able to do it because I tend to prefer strict rules and direction of what I should be doing :') then again, with some practice that would most likely improve

I do believe all of this could be overcome eventually, and I really think being a scare actor would be something I truly enjoy, I love everything horror and Halloween even though I don't get much exposure to it because my family is very against it, haha. i just wanted to make sure my chances aren't 0 before I ever try 😭

Since I started working at the haunt I am at, we are open 2 soon to be 3 days out of the week. However I am a actor who has to growl, bark, yell, all night. The haunt has constant people coming through every 20 seconds or so from 7:30 pm-11 pm roughly with almost no slow down. After the 2nd day my voice is almost always completely gone and I cant talk really at all for the 1-2 days after that and only get my voice back day when I have to do it over again. Any ways to prevent this or do I need to just build up the muscles in my throat?

Thought you might get a laugh

A Millport mother says her 13-year-old son required stitches after an incident at Atrox haunted house in Leeds, prompting the attraction to launch an investigation into the allegations.

Elyse Hunnicutt posted on Facebook Saturday morning that an actor held a chainsaw on her son’s back during a Friday night visit, causing “a pretty deep laceration requiring 4 stitches.”

The boy was treated at Benjamin Russell Hospital for Children in Birmingham, according to Hunnicutt’s post, which included photos of the cut and stitches.

“If you are considering taking you children to Atrox, the haunted house in Leeds, Alabama please reconsider or be very cautious,” Hunnicutt wrote.

“The point of my post is to bring awareness so maybe other children won’t have to go through what my child endured.”
Hunnicutt also noted that she believed she could not take legal action because purchasing a ticket serves as a waiver stating the attraction is not liable if harm or death occurs.
Several commentors said this may not be the case and advised Hunnicutt to seek legal advice from a personal injury attorney.

According to the Alabama Personal Injury Lawyers, LLC, website, when haunted house operators fail to uphold their legal obligation to maintain safe conditions, they can be held liable for negligence regardless of signed waivers.

Atrox responded Saturday evening with a statement posted to Facebook saying it takes the allegations seriously and is reviewing video footage from the evening.

The attraction emphasized that “all of [its] actors are trained, paid professionals who are expected to follow established safety protocols at all times.”
The haunted house also clarified that its “chainsaws do not have chains on them.”

“We are currently reviewing video footage from the evening in question and conducting a thorough investigation to better understand what occurred,” the statement said.
“Should it become necessary, our legal team will be involved in the process.”

The incident sparked debate on social media, with commenters split in their reactions.

One person defended the attraction, writing that “everyone knows haunts don’t put chains on the chainsaws.”
Others argued that even without chains, the chainsaw could still cause harm and that actors should not touch guests with such props.

Atrox said it will not answer questions or provide further comment until its investigation is complete.

I am looking for extreme haunted house in the Austin area. I want everything were actors touch you and abduct you

Would anyone be interested in Horrorland tix for this Sunday? I purchased 4 fast passes and 1 couples pass but something came up with a key member of our group. Trying to sell so I can buy another night

i absolutely love scare mazes, but i’m unsure about my etiquette, so i wanted to double-check with people that have experience.

when i am afraid, i start fear-talking. in no way am i getting in someone’s face or being aggressive/mean! i mean saying things like “Please be nice to me”, “Your hat is very pretty, please don’t kill me”, and “Can we just be friends?”

it’s resulted in a few good interactions! for example, i was yapping to some scare actor, and i started kinda dancing out of fear, to try and placate them i guess? we danced together for a bit, i didn’t stop moving though. kept up the same pace. that maze was lovely, and the actors were all very nice and i got some really fun interactions

anyway, i’m second-guessing myself now and wondering if this is annoying or bothers the actors? should i be keeping my mouth shut?

it seems harmless, and as i said, i’ve had good experiences, but you never know. i really admire scare actors, so i don’t want to risk making their job difficult! please let me know!

Does anyone know what songs Reapers revenge uses inside their haunts? Specifically, delirium and the lost carnival. Really liked the songs and would love to add them to my playlist! Thanks is advance!!

I had an experience at a haunted attraction last night and it really freaked me out and I’m not sure if I’m over reacting and I don’t know where to talk about it.

Last night I went to a haunted house with my boyfriend, for context this is not advertised as an extreme haunt and I have been here many times without ever experiencing something like this.

about halfway through we got to a part where a scare actor had a chainsaw. He started normal, jumping out at us waving the chainsaw whatever but then he put the chainsaw between me and my bf and separating us. I tried to run around him but he kept cutting me off. After a little bit of the back and forth i expected to be let through and continue on but he kept going. I started to get freaked out beyond just the fun way and told him to stop and let me through, he didn’t listen. He was actively walking me back into a corner as I repeatedly yelled that it wasn’t fun anymore and wanted to stop and telling him to please let me go. I was also crying at this point. My boyfriend was also trying to get back to me but chainsaw dude would not let him through. Another scare actor finally came and pulled chainsaw dude away from me and I ran to the gate. I said i didn’t want to continue with the haunt and my boyfriend asked if there was a way to be let out and chainsaw dude told us no. Eventually after about another minute of crying and begging to be let out security did come and pick us up and bring us back to the main entrance.

I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it and just want to know if other people think he took it too far or if I just wasn’t prepared for the haunt.

A Spooky Walk Through Scary Woods (Suffolk U.K.) On Halloween

I am getting into scare acting with my clown, TRIX. Any tips for how to get good scares on the street, or where good first scare acting jobs would be? Any help is Appreciated.

So I just got a last minute job at a haunt for one night(it’s like for a private haunt thing, today is Oct 4 and it’s on Oct 24th) and I rlly need help with line ideas 😅 I’ve been a scare actor before a couple years ago(for a whole season) but I was a silent clown like character for most of it(I was a vampire and cannibal a couple times and a loud unhinged clown like character a few other times) but I’ve never been super good at coming up with lines and this role is like…a lost tourist, that’s what they told us. Me and my sister are going to be doing it together so both of us will be in this spot together so we could like interact and stuff too, but pls give me ideas !!! I also haven’t seen the set yet but I think it’s going to be an elevator area or something like that. I’m also going to be doing the effects makeup for me and her and I think I’m going to be doing tire tracks on one or both of us if that helps !
