Startle Scare Woods Actors The woods are not just about startle scares. A couple of interactive characters are thrown in the mix along the way to advance the story and bring it to its conclusion. In 2010’s finale, guests were escorted into an old dimly lit building where they cam face to face with the maniacal heart collector. This is a scripted, automated scene where the tale is infused with special effects. It utilizes a lighting/sound controller along with pushbuttons for triggering the sequences. A combination of light flashes and momentary darkness is used to disorientate people and highlight the scares that periodically appear around the room. This is a unique and very effective part of the event and grew out of the success Graveside Manor had as a home haunt doing similar shows. Finally, after completing the tour, guests are escorted out of the woods and invited to hang around the bonfire or visit the fortune teller. The fire pit features professional story tellers and the opportunity to roast smores Go to www.darkwalk.net to find out more. Photographs courtesy of A Haunted Enchanted Evening, Graveside Manor
