Not sure how many people know about this place but it is a fairly large haunted house open every October for the past ten or so years.
The SatB websiteIts been fairly entertaining to go through each year (better with friends). Although I get more enjoyment from working for them and scaring the S**T out of people (although the quality of staff has gone down in the recent years).
They also train anyone willing to learn in make-up techniques (air-brush, latex, etc.) as well as general prop making and other techniques for building a haunted house through-out the year.
It is generally a fairly friendly atmosphere (again degrading in the recent years) and they are fairly helpful if you are nice.
If anyone is interested there is an open class for make-up techniques on the 21st of this month from 2:00pm to 3:30pm [ulr=http://www.screamatthebeach.com/directions.htm]here.[/url] They are also using this as a recruiting opportunity for their
make-up team.
