I scored an awesome job!

[UndeadLegend]

I'm working at a haunted house this october on the weekends, and I get to be a plant monster! Anyone have any tips for me from past experiences?

Well I heard it from the grapevine that this was the type of job you could branch out from especially if you turn over a new leaf. Good luck I wish you well just remember to keep your feet firmly planted.

Are you thinking about having the jagged teeth/pod head look?  You could have creeping tendrils! Ahhhhhh!!! There are so many cool man/woman eating plants to choose from We live near a vacant lot full of Kudzu......and it scares me to death. So vines are always creepy! Congratulations on the sweet gig- and ENJOY!!

Pics coming up. My final costume will be ready next week. Only the chest and one arm were ready this weekend, which was opening weekend. I also will have a different mask. You guys still want the pics of my current one?

Drink lots of vegetable juice, UndeadLegend so you can be just like our own Dr. Zachary Smith. Uh, that was a plant monster training video we just saw...wasn't it?       Have fun scaring the kids UL!

[UndeadLegend]

Thank you very much, sir!

The banging something to make a loud noise or the jumping out and yelling startle scares at haunted houses are lame. Try for the creepy, "did that thing just move?" or the following behind them or moving in and out of their peripheral vision. Stand motionless for as long as possible or have your legs across the corridor so they have to walk over/past you. They will creep themselves out looking at you and not wanting to pass you wondering if you are a prop or actor. Never move at the first person always wait for the middle of the group.
