Commandant Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Just wondering if anyone here has ever worked at a haunted house. I've been working in a haunted house for the past 4 years called the Boneyard in Arlington, TX and I absolutley love it. So any of you ever WORKED in one, please post about your experiences and what the name of the haunt is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloodkilla87 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 What do you mean you work at a haunted house? Are you a security guard and make sure no kids get in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 No, I work there as in I scare people, I'm only 17, and I'm not big, so being a security guard is out of the question. But yeah you would love working in a haunted house, if your into scaring people, and who's not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knives669 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Lol. That would be a great job... :D But, isn't it only open around Halloween? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 yeah the one I work at is, but I left the Boneyard because one of the former co-owners of the Boneyard is opening a haunted house that will last from September-November, so it'll be great fun.

Punc Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 It's a house at a carnival or so, where you pay to take a ride, then get spooked by images, sounds, people that are dressed up,... Seems like an extremely fun job to do :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knives669 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 @ Commandant Do you actually get PAID to do this? Because if you do, I'm going to investigate getting a job this Halloween... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like an extremely fun job to do :shock: actually this dosn't take place at a carnival or anything, it's a 2 story abandoned building with 50 different rooms, all a different theme. and to answer your question knives, yes I get paid, some people don't because they haven't been working there for as long as others, some people are volunteers, others are permanent.

cupcake Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 yeah that will be cool... make some noises and say it is the ghost. All is fine as long nothing will try to kill you like in the movies. as long ghost (if there is any) don't do that, everything is cool :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barihawk Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Guys, be nice to Yummy. He might not come from the US or UK where these things are popular. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 It can be dangerous working in a haunted house though, my friend Tanner who works there with me got stabbed once by a guy he scared, he ran at him and the guy pulled a knife and stabbed him, in my opinion the guy didn't want anyone to think he was scared by being a poor sport and trying to prove he's a man, but now he's in prison, so worth it eh?

He just stopped swinging the chainsaw around and said, "Well, hey, John! Haven't seen you in awhile!" and shook his hand. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 lol that's pretty funny, but we don't break character, were to dedicated to do that. also when you work at a haunted house, girls try to throw you off and ask for your number and stuff, but it's kinda funny when their so distracted with you and someone with a chainsaw runs at them ( my 300 pound friend Michael) and scares the hell outta them. It's pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the actors aren't allowed to touch the customers, and the customers can't touch the actors, or else we can press charges if you do. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
