Halloween 2009 Page

November 3rd, 2009 by John Wolfe

Just added the 2009 Haunt Photo Page to the site. Halloween night was awesome! So many kind visitors stopped by the haunt. A huge thanks to the trick-or-treaters and their parents for their support and a GIGANTIC thanks to my entire family for all of their help. Without their extraordinary efforts it wouldn’t have come together in time. Also, a big thanks to everyone who checked out the live haunt cam feed and to the visitors and moderator of the chat box. All of you guys inspire me and I can’t wait to get started on the 2010 haunt!

Halloween & Workshop Webcam

September 1st, 2009 by John Wolfe

Over the last week or so, I made up my mind to pursue having a live video (webcam) feed of the haunt on Halloween night. Not only that, but I’ve also decided to broadcast live video from my workshop as I’m building my props. The workshop footage isn’t going to be chock-a-block full of riveting action. Prop building, at least for me, is a very slow process. But, hopefully it will provide some interesting moments for visitors as well as a charge of Halloween spirit. :)

I’ve always enjoyed live webcams. There’s something comforting about observing what’s happening elsewhere at precisely that moment in time. In fact, my initial intention for the Halloween Haunter’s Reality project (from last year) was to create a fly on the wall, “webcammy” type of thing. However, I started getting more and more involved in the editing process after the first installment.

So, the Halloween Webcam feed is really an extension of Haunter’s Reality, but with a true fly on the wall style of documenting my prep. For more info and to check out the feed, please visit the new webcam page.
