2009 Season
Running a haunted house can be one of the most fun things I have ever done in my life. It can also be one of the most craziest! This year our 2009 season had 17 nights that we were open to scare customers, 83 build days, 3 communiy events(parades/depot days), and 10 hardcore marketing days driving all through Texas and Oklahoma distributing our materials.
Highlights of the 2009 season:
10. Devil being removed from Shleby by a 10 year old
9. Hail storm during the season and customers kept coming to stand in line in hail
8. Fellow haunted house jealous of our marketing
7. Depot days - 500 kids later (I guess when you offer free face paiting compare to the face painters charging $5 you see a lot of action)
6. Removing an entire wall while customers kept coming through the haunt "Kim their coming for you"
5. Nathan in the wedding dress, why is it every year straight boys want to wear that dress
4. Bloody Fun - is the best clown attraction in a 200 mile radius - yes we beat the one in East Texas but after 7 months building that thing we should have been the best
3. Skull football
2. Late nights hanging out after work days at a resturant!
1. Fellow haunted house entire cast and crew jealous of our haunted house (even sweeter since they wanted to buy the haunted house 3 years ago but instead spent 4 times as much buying another one and there's can not compare)!
The season was fun and worth it. We started construction for the 2010 season and have been working really intent this year already. The hours that went into the 2009 season made a huge difference and customers that enjoyed 2009 will have some really pleasant surprises in 2010 since we are only strengthing what we have started. 2009 marked our 7th year and each year we just keep growing!
