frightmare 05' [dark works]

YouTube · Post by **.saint** » December 07, 2004

well everyone probly has the jist of what frightmare is if not its a free yard haunt i put up every year for people to experience my dark works..

since i lacked on pictures in 04 this year i will be documenting everything.. all the props/controls/buildings/whatnot... also in the future look for some 'frightmare how-to video's/dvds' explaining in detail how i go about making and controlling alot of the props seen in the haunt..

this year i think my dad and i will be tearing our swimming pool down (due to lack of use and a waist of money) and in its place will house the new frightmare building structure, yes a structure... this year the building might be permanant!

frightmare is also going to be cutting back on its days of operation. instead of opening on the 15th of october frightmare will only be open for 4 nights this year. 28-31. this will allow us to have longer lines and more people in 'suspence' while they wait. it will also limit people from looping back around and going through more then one or 2 times a night. (we had a HUGE problem with that in 04).

frightmare 05
this year frightmare will be taking on an entirely new look! instead of the black twists and turns i had in 04 frightmare will now set you in the minds of a 'set in the woods cabin look' instead of the twists and turns i put you through in 2004, frightmare will now be putting you inside 8 different rooms.

detail detail detail! yes frightmare 2005 is going to be a work of art. no only with the props but with detail as well.. the entire lighting theme will revolve around hand made pvc candles w/flicker bulbs making it very low light and errie. in the haunt will house pictures/desks/chairs/shelfs and small little things such as plates/silverware you would find in most 'run down cabins'

the size of the building will change this year as well... lastyear i was using a 12foot by 32foot building... this year size will shrink down to a 20 foot by 20 foot building. increasing in witdh but loosing a bit in length. but i wont let anyone down i will make up for that in the detail and use of props this year.

frightmare 2005 will also introduce a new 'courtyard' where guest are read some of the rules to the haunt. and a few other eye candy things befor entering the cabin. less eyecandy in the actual yard in 2005 due to the que line and the courtyard space.

if you thought 2004 was scary, lookout because 05 will blow your minds.

a website is in the works for frightmare. so stay tuned it will be full of pictures and updates over the months leading up to the opening.

cabin designs have been started. i have actually been blowing alot of time on laying this out. frank and i have a pretty good lead to where this is going to start and possibly a story read to the group before entering (still up in the air)...

the size of the building has changed from the original 20x20 to 20x24. an extra 4 foot was added to the length do to hallway space. this year instead of feeling your way around wot will actually have to use the handprints to open doors leading into the rooms! you dont know whats waiting for you. this year we will also be running more then likely... 8 infared camera's in the haunt. last year i purchased 4 but due to time they were never installed. also the front building all of use liked to call 'the chappel' will be used for the control room and a 'lounge' for all the workers. (will also hold the keg and posibly tv w/playstation. muahaha)

all the sound pumping through the haunt this year will be run off 3 cheap car cd players custom built into the new and improved control cabnit and delivered to 2 subs for a deep surround effect and smaller bookshelf speekers for the other sounds.

any of you johnstown kids be on the lookout for any old furnature... small desks, cabnits, shelfs, and chairs. they will be needed for decoration inside the haunt.

im not sure how crazy everyone else is about halloween but its my favorite time of the year. i love fall and the halloween holiday, ill keep you all updated for those who care. pics are yet to come. soon as prop building begins.
