2011 Rose Festival Haunted House
Get Your Scream On!
It was only a 40' x 40' tent, but it was packed with terror inducing scares. Terrified guests entered little Julie's closet to find out what she's afraid of: spiders, maniacs, skeletons that come to life, and more, and needless to say the screams testified to the effectiveness of the environment.
The Rose Festival is the largest event in the state of Oregon, with events running from February through mid June. Our exhibit, located within the "City Fair" along Waterfront Park, was located across from the main gates to both the fair and the concert field. Our decorated facade, along with two animated monsters—one that trashed around and another the sprayed water on passing onlookers—attracted a lot of attention. In addition, the Swamp Monster, with its high pitched voice, served as unofficial greeter to everyone who passed by. It was quite a spectacle!
Inside the gloom, cast members crowded into the rooms and passages, creating chills and thrills for anyone brave enough to enter. In short: it was a blast! We had a ton of fun and our guests left us with wonderful comments. Take a look at some of these samples:
