I'll do that. Their only assholes though because they think their the coolest because they manage the woods and their "producers".
And they "don't care about the money" yet they practically cry and throw little fits when they don't get the manager bonuses.

But anyways..
Thanks for your help..
If you can think of anything else keep the ideas coming!!
I need all the help I can get.

when they complain about not getting paid enough, remind them that they are getting paid and should be grateful. some people (like me) haunt voluntarily and could care less about getting paid (not that it wouldnt be nice). i do it for the scares. nothing like a grown man screaming to perk up your day

I like that idea. I need all the halloween stores to open and everyone put their halloween stuff out so I can get my props and blood and stuff and start working on it. This month is going too slowly.

little bo peep butchered her sheep.
mary slaughtered her little lamb.
little miss muffit and the big arse spider (think feet, not inches).
mary or peep - the lambs a mutated montrous freaky thing out for blood, guts, and bones.
alice goes postal in wonderland.
sleeping beauty the schizo insomniac.
snow white, drained the seven dwarves (vampire).
a sweet little angelic girl who just looks too happy to be normal, you'd be amazed at how freaked people get when you grin ear to ear knowingly, delighted that you know what going to happen. it helps if you follow them a ways just out of reach. wings aren't necessary just look innocent/cute,

I'm not sure if your Haunt is big enough for this to work.

Old haunt we used to do, actually haunted an entire block of old victorian, decrepid houses next to a local Fort. This one:



We literally had thousands come through each night. Lined up six deep for over three blocks, so the following trick was easy.

One of the carnel rules was, "No Touching the Victims..er...Customers".

There was one little 7 year old actor, Jennifer, who could scream all night long. Her only costume? Street clothes.

We ran guest through the haunt in groups of ten. Occasionally, Jennifer would sneak into a group, where others thought she was a paying customer. About 3/4's of the way through the haunt, during the Graveyard Tour, a Big Ugly Werewolf (ME) would pick her up and run off with her screaming all the way. Scare the bejeebuz out of them.

I miss this haunt, but unfortunatly we lost the venue because they redeveloped the structures...great for the structures..bad for the haunt.

Civilization is hideously fragile, there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish.

That was the idea I was going to suggest. I started typing in not realizing there was a second page to this post.

I was going to suggest having just the head of the wolf and you holding an axe. All bloodied up. Maybe say something a little wicked - along the lines of the wolf or going to grandma's - in a sweet way. Don't know if that made sense.

Or LRRH with grandma's head and an axe?

Start talking to the folks walking through saying things like, "Boy, what a big neck you have..." Or something... I don't know.
