On more than one board I've yapped on and on about the radio play that accompanies our yard haunt. Finally found a way to share it.
Our yard haunt goes up two weeks before Halloween. We broadcast this radio show continuously with an low-power FM transmitter hooked to a simple CD player set on repeat. We have a WRAITHFIN.JPG on Flickr - Photo [email protected]@[email protected]@http://farm1.static.flickr.com/1/[email protected]@[email protected]@[email protected]@[email protected]@d15b2fbb6b that tells people to tune to our chosen frequency. It's fun to watch people pull up each evening, turn on their radios and listen to the show. In the end, each of the props that are described in the play can be seen in the yard. We like to think this makes our haunt more immersive. Last year we met a family who told us they'd been coming by for several years, but that 2005 was the first time their kids could get all the way through the story. A rite of passage. This is incredibly popular with our guests. It's always listed as our number one "prop" on the little polls we do. I'd suggest it for any haunter. Particularly if you have a strong theme. If you have about six minutes to kill, you can listen to it here. Just hit the play symbol underneath the word "subscribe." The talent is me, a friend and my wife (sorry about that part). We did have some professional help with the audio production. However, with all the tech that's available today I think you could pull one off without much trouble. Would love your feedback.
