Sentosa is one of Singapore's most popular tourist spot for its uniquely Singaporean attractions, man-made sandy beaches, and overpriced drinking holes with a generous view to beach bods in trunks and bikinis. But beneath all that glamour is a dark past and buried secrets. Listen to confessions by people who had worked or stayed there, and the stories they will remember… forever. The first confession was shared with with us by someone who had worked as a scare actor for halloween. Second confession talks about the superstitions of taking photos with just three people. Our confessor has photographic evidence that grandma's cautionary tale was right. In the third confession, an events organiser was driving home late from Sentosa had an unwelcome passenger hitching his ride. She had long black hair and a white gown. Our final confession is a reminder why our grandparents always advised us to never acknowledge any strange sightings at night.

One of the most difficult things for a Haunted Attraction Owner is to find quality Scare Actors and Staff to help make the attraction come to life. Having your Scare Actors not show up is one of the biggest complaints we hear as haunt consultants...from the bad reviews from your customers to the other actors who have to cover those spots and pull double duty on a busy Saturday night. These are some of the things we have tried in the past. We now have over 40 scare actors inside our haunt The Dead Factory. Join us in this LIVE ONLINE MASTER CLASS on Hiring Employees and Recruiting Volunteers Here are five things you can start doing now to recruit and hire new scare actors for your haunted attraction.   Reach out to family and friends. Use social media to let others know you're searching for help. People aren't mind readers so you gotta put it out there. I know it's tough to ask for help, but it determines the success of your show. Create an Ad on Facebook. Create a business page on Facebook..yes, they still work. Boost a post or create an ad directly focused on your local area (maybe a 15 mile radius around your location) and interests like Horror Movie Fans, Theater/Plays, Haunted Houses. Team up with your local theater or high school drama club. Many of my scare actors have come from the local theater. My son was also in the drama department at his high school. You might be able to cross-promote with them by sharing staff members or even hanging banners in each others queue lines. Ask strangers. Allen Hopps, from The Darkhour Haunted House, carries pre-made business cards specifically for Scare Actor auditions. He carries them everywhere! I usually get a feel for a person and then ask them if they'd be interested in helping work behind-the-scenes of a Haunted House. Ask your current Actors/Staff for referrals. Sometimes your current helpers don't know you need more help. Ask if they have a friend that may want to try it out as a test run. Once they get that first scare..it usually lights that fire inside. It's either for a person or not...don't try to force it. You'll get a better quality of actor by letting the good ones come back for more. Treat your scare actors and your haunt staff like family. Have food and drinks if it's in your budget. Make them comfortable as possible. Make their time with you fun and enjoyable so they'll want to come back and bring a friend. Happy Haunting!

In the haunted attraction business, we get to make great (and terrifying) memories for a cornucopia of people every season. Whether from the security booth, back door, ticket counter, or our own little square inside the haunt- the feeling of watching a patron's excitement at jump scenes and awe from elaborate details is downright addicting. It's part of the reason so many haunters even keep going! And now, Factory of Terror in New England USA has found a way to share this addiction with guests who visit their attraction. Nathan and Carlos from Factory of Terror recently came on "Haunting the Globe" to discuss their 20th year and how the new 'Dare to Scare' app will be integrated into all 3 locations to add an exciting new interactive dimension for guests.
