We've got bodies!

Last night was the haunt's official casting call, and wow — what a turn out! Dozens of folks, signing up for multiple nights of the event at a clip. We showed the full videos of both our Scary Tales and Undead Idol shows, and then groups of volunteers were taken on exclusive, behind the scenes tours of the haunt build. Things right now are at about 80% constructed, and about 70% operational (smoke machines, strobes, music, etc. still have to go in — the generators were only turned on yesterday). The volunteers (or frighteners, as we like to call 'em) got to take a run through the EXTREMELY claustrophobic BioSleeve 1031, see the military checkpoints, check out the med labs and shock posts — and even with a lot of the lights on, we still had quite a few jumpers.

As one guy said, "This is some dark genius!"

It's never too late to get in on the fun. There's a place for extroverts and introverts, you don't need acting experience, we'll get you where you need to be so you can have a 6 foot linebacker falling on the ground, crying like a baby. If you'd like to scare because you care, get in touch with Cathryn Oulighan at the Stamford Museum: 203.322.1646, ext. 6530, or via email volunteer@stamfordmuseum.org
