(SHAKES AT A VELOCITY THAT COULD SHATTER GLASS)

Is there any particular way to get started with being a scare actor?

Easiest way to start is just by doing it. Nothing will truly be scare acting until you're scare acting. Don't worry though, we all start out this way.

Whether it be your local amusement park, haunted house, or just a community-ran scary forest. I started out in a haunted GARAGE. So there is really no wrong way to go here as long as it's safe. You can usually find applications to scare either online or within local communities.

And if you want some extra advice...

After you find your haunt, I'd recommend learning everything you can about it. What auditions are like (which is usually improv and it's super awkward but so WORTH IT) and what rules they have in place there. Most haunts tend to have similar rules such as:

1. Not getting too close to guests (try to not get within arm's length as to prevent them from swinging at you). As well as avoid guests who look angry as a whole. Eventually you'll get what I call Scare Actor Senses. You can take a quick look at a group and know if they'd be a good scare or if they could be a danger to your haunt. Always trust that sense.

2. And SCARE FORWARD! Which means don't scare directly in front of people. It might sound silly to get into a traffic jam of people and monsters in a haunted house, but it can be very dangerous as well. Scaring from behind and to the side to get the guests running out in the correct direction is always the better call.

After you've auditioned, met your haunt team and are nearing opening night, ITS TIME TO PANIC!!!! But wait! Don't worry because you've been PREPARING for this!!

1. Drink LOTS of water throughout the week before opening night (I like to do stretches throughout the week as well but as long as you stretch before a night of scaring, you should be good) don't forget to bring water with you to your haunt as well!

2. Write down line and character ideas!! It's no fun if you're just grunting at people all night. Who IS your monster?! What's your name, back story, and goal? Are you a crazy townsperson baking people into pies? Or a creepy clown possessed by their former performance partner? It doesn't need to be a novel, but these ideas can help shape your interactions and make you more memorable. Think about your costume and prop. Who would use and wear those?

3. Take a deep breath. You've got this. Performance anxiety is the worst, but realize that a haunt is a mini community, too. Once you're in, people have your back. Guests will do things you're NOT expecting, which is why it's always good to be near your fellow monsters.

The biggest thing to remember is to pace yourself and HAVE FUN!!! Some nights can be crazy but the good 100% outweighs the bad. Haunt season is here! Meaning there's no better time to start than now!

I wish you good luck and if you do become a scare actor...

scare acting is such an unserious job. sorry man I can’t make it tonight I got shrieking and howling at 7pm. Yeah it’s gonna go until midnight, maybe even later. I totally would go but the boss needs me to lurk in the shadows and pounce and whatnot. I’m on creature time. you understand
