Welcome, Joe! Been working at your home haunt for 9 years, eh? Wow, I bet you have it perfected by now...good to see so many visitors turning out for it as well..of course you have yourself to thank for that success. There's prop building advice and vendor information all over this place, have a look around and enjoy!!

Thanks for the welcome everyone! Ya after nine years things go pretty smooth. If the high winds aren't blowing over my portable car ports. Or heavy rains flooding out the haunted forest. Or even the vortex tunnel that just didn't spin right and kept falling off the bike rims. LOL I change the haunt around every year so it is a challenge. Last year I scaled it back, from 3 carports a 2car garage and my little forest in back to just the garage and a16X20 ft. house maze I built new. I will see if i can dig up some pics. I always forget to take pics we are so busy. the wife is the photographer I'll see if she has any.

Thanks again Joe

Welcome to the forum Joe! I would barely call my little shindig a "haunt", let alone one that attracts over 300 people (that's awesome), but if I could have my dream job, it would be running a pro haunt (maybe one for a good charity or cause, or maybe for profit Of course all I need now is talent and more experience!
