Great Ideas to Make a Haunted House more Interactive | Haunt Forum
Im talking more the corporate ones, like at wonderland and stuff), I enjoy the aspect of making the guests use their brains (purely for my own entertainment while watching on the CCTV cams LOL), making them have to do things to be able to move forward, misdirection and those sort of things. We did a lot of that last year and want to amp it up this year as we do every year! So let me give you an idea of what im talking about, last year the first room was technically a huge corn maze and graveyard outside the haunted house..

r/hauntedhouses on Reddit: Unsettling ideas for a haunted house, not into cheesy rubber decorations and actors in white and red makeup screaming
September 16, 2022 -

Nothing wrong with the traditional haunted house setup, but I’m making one this year for my community and I’m looking for creative, unnerving, and unsettling ideas for my haunted house. The more unconventional the better but I want my guests to leave with something genuinely scary that isn’t just your rubber props, fake chainsaws, and the millionth actor in white face makeup with fake blood. I want new ideas, upsetting visuals (nothing too graphic or honestly expensive). Any ideas?

low frequencies have been known to cause fear and anxiety, also checkout mynoise.net as it has several creepy noise generators with themes like horror, even a haunted house one. use that on Bluetooth speakers set up around the house. Lighting, certain colours instill fear, https://fotodioxpro.com/blogs/news/the-horror-color-wheel-the-color-lighting-used-in-horror A subtle but deep nauseating fear visual, at least for me personally is rotting food, you could add spiderwebs, rats, insects, etc. Death and decay is a more visceral kind of haunt than blood and guts and monsters. Peeling wallpaper, lights that flicker eerily, shadows instead of monsters, shadows is a low budget way to instill fear that the people will make up in their own mind. ever looked across a dark room and thought you saw something creepy but it was only a pile of laundry or a coat rack? Think psychological instead of boo! scary! set the mood, find some really spooky stories, unsettling but not gory, r/nosleep would be a good source. Hope this helps, again this is just my personal opinion and what scares me, but I've found that these things typically will unnerve and spook most people. also, look up DIY stuff for props.

The best haunts I've ever visited played with not just sight and sound, but with smell. Nothing deeply unpleasant like rotten meat or shit, but like graveyard dirt, or (in the case of a Texas Chainsaw Massacre themed haunt) barbecue. It was enough to set me off guard, because you don't really expect to smell much more than fog juice in a haunt. It's almost invasive, smelling something unexpected, even if it's pleasant.

r/PlanetCoaster on Reddit: Any ideas on how to make a walkthrough attraction (Haunted House)
January 2, 2022 -

I'm building a theme park and I really want to build an attraction that is just a walkthrough, somewhat like the attractions you'd find at theme park Halloween events. I know there is no way for me to charge tickets for this attraction, as the game will not be able to register it as a ride, but does anyone have any advice as to how they would go about creating something like this?

I'd love to know if anyone has done anything like this before, even if the build has been completely non-functional.
