A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

Hey all! So, I know October has come and gone, but I have been wondering if anyone here is a fan of going to hunted house attractions around Halloween? This has actually become one of my new passions, being a haunter.

This past September and October, I worked at my first official haunted house called Ghoulie Manor, located in Taunton, MA. It was a total blast, getting into costume and makeup, and then scaring the hell out of guests as they came through. The website to the haunt is here: http://www.ghouliemanor.com. The haunt was set up as a Victorian mansion, and all of the haunters played crazed crazed family members, zombies, and other kinds of ghouls. I played a sinister and ghoulish butler, my job basically helping them understand the rules of the haunt before they go into the next room. It gave me a chance to really improvise and play off of other characters.

This video gives some behind the scenes insight on the haunt, and features me talking about my role as the butler. Also, the creator of Goulie Manor was featured in a new documentary called The American Scream (available on netflix), which was filmed in my home town! Anyway, here is the link:

Let me know what you guys think!

We don't really have anything like that where I live. Being the Central Valley of California, we usually just have corn or hay mazes. It fits within our agricultural capacity. Sometimes those mazes are spooky, but more often than not it's just the experience of being 'lost' out at night.

There was a haunted house by the main corn maze in the county, though. It was pretty fun. Mostly mechanical skeleton and creature props, but also several human actors as a werewolf, old woman and sexy vampire lady.
