BoddaH1994 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I voted for an evil circus. I always thought that things that are supposed to make you so happy turning evil made a good theme. I do like the asylum idea too. Why are you asking this anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauntguy Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Like I said in our PMs... clowns will be HARD for you to pull off and for it to be effective. I voted for the Dungeon/Torture Cells. -Hauntguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamingnight Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I voted for mental institution. To me thats more creepy! Yay Im going to Land Of Illusion next weekend!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkjkj Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 whenever you get started on "construction" you should post pictures so we can see how it comes along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzarley Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 ^ Yeah, definitely do that...we'll want to see what you come up with. (I'd also take Hauntguy's advice since he's the professional on this topic.) And, FWIW...three separate threads on this topic now is probably more than enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I voted for mental institution. Brings back memories of Michael Meyers in Halloween. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Bowser Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Â always thought that things that are supposed to make you so happy turning evil made a good theme. Kinda like The Super Mario Bros.Movie eh? Why dont you just make it like a Haunted Woods that type of thing always freaks me out because you never know whats walking around in the woods late at night.

Delirium13 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I voted Sleepy Hollow. It doesn't necessarily have to be to the movie, I just like the creepy town in the woods theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StXsteven Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I voted mental institution because it's the easiest to do, and is the most frightening IMO. Having good actors is very important for this kind though, if you don't have that, go with dungeon because it has a nice scenery, fairly good price, doesn't need the best acting if you have some really creppy music playing, probalby overall funner to do and to work on. The Sleepy Hollow theme IMO is overused and very boring. There's only so much you can do with cutting peoples heads off. Like someone else said, the idea of a town in the woods is a very creppy feeling, but my guess is your haunt is all in doors so obviously you can't really pull that off. Whatever you go with, good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastfan11 Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 UPDATE: Today i had a meeting( aka- talked during word proccecing) with my friend.... the theme is goin to be one of these....old mental insttusion,evil clowns... and a new one me and he disscussed..

KIBeast Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 You could realistically do a Phantom Theatre Haunted House. All you need are some actors to dress the parts and a few props. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySteve Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 OK...but before you do all this work, you might want to call your local fire marshal and get the necessary permits... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastfan11 Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 ok dude we are a bunch of 14 year old kids doin this for the neighbors.. and yes we have talked to a frie marshall we need no permits! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailRider Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Ahhh the fire marshall could care less how many people you have in your basement in a homemade haunted house that doesn't meet code. They have more important things to worry about like razorblades in candy... Seriously keep it small and only for friends and family and your fine. Just dont start advertising this thing.

RailRider Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Well if you keep it small its just like having a halloween party. So just use your head, dont burn anything down, and dont kill anyone. Other than that have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySteve Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Don't get your panties in a twist man...I'm just looking out for you, making sure you dont get in trouble... Oh, by the way...I don't know what fire marshall you talked to, but this comes directly from the State Fire Marshall's office..."The fire code official would need to evaluate the situation with respect to use and occupancy classifications, change of use and occupancy, fire protection, means of egress, occupant load, fire detection and alarm notification, combustibility of decorative materials, exit lights, emergency lighting, and emergency procedures." Like I said...I was just looking out for you...But, I really do wish you the best on your haunted house...from the way it sounds, you're going to have yourself a kick a...uh...can i say that word here anymore?

StXsteven Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I'm helping run and work the haunted house at Hillebrand, obviously it cant be to scary because its mostly for little kids, but I need some creepy ideas if anyones got any. If anyone has family or knows anyone who is staying at Hillebrand, make sure you check it out, its a really cool event.. haunted house is on the first floor, story telling and picture taking(a special set, is set up for pics) third floor is all different stuff, pumpkin painting, getting a bag of candy, they'll have a movie playing, they'll have a story where they involve you to feel things, it truely is a cool event. We're going to up the scare level for the haunted house, because people were only saying the ending was the best(a girl distracts then then I pop up the casket lid and hopped out) so thats why they want me to help alot with the haunt this year.
