Haunt Hours This Year

Our Haunted Walk-Thru will be open 7-10pm Friday 10/30/2015 and Saturday 10/31/2015 only. No rain dates. 

If you haven't checked us out before, be sure to stop by. The haunt is more intense this year than in the past, and is definitely not recommended for young children. We won't be doing the walk-thru next year so don't miss this one! The Hillbilly's have been cooking up a special batch of 'shine... and everyone's DYING to find out their secret ingredient...

We're excited to be listed on the:

• Fairfax Family Fun Directory: http://www.fairfaxfamilyfun.com/blog/nova-halloween-2015-whats-in-whats-out-and-whats-new
• WMZQ: http://www.wmzq.com/features/happy-halloween-1351/events/15/494554/haunted-house-locations-13958632/
• HauntedHouse.com http://www.hauntedhouse.com/directory/haunts/usa/virginia/
• and several other directories.

 Feel free to stop by and enjoy our computer controlled music and light show out front - which runs nightly.

  And PLEASE remember to bring canned food donations for E.C.H.O. - the local food bank.

WindowFX Digital Effect

We've been a big fan of AtmosFX digital effects for many years now... though we'd always used TV screens to project the effects. Never had the time to learn all about the various projectors out there and what differentiates them. New ones seem expensive and used ones are risky since apparently the bulb (which has a very limited life) is the major cost component in most projectors and if you happen to buy a used one whose bulb dies on you you're faced with potentially more expense than what you paid for the projector.

And if you're a haunter doing a yard haunt like we do, you also have to worry about potentially building enclosures for the projectors that will protect them from the elements so you can use them outdoors.

That said when AtmosFx announced an all-in-one bundled projection solution (WindowFx) this past summer I was all over it! We pre-ordered it and have been waiting anxiously for its arrival.

Well it finally showed up last week. It was worth the wait!!! VERY COOL.

I was looking to go back and order another - but alas they're sold out for the season already! You can bet we'll be looking for another one though!

$124 for a projector which plays videos off an SD card, an SD card pre-loaded with a variety of Halloween and Christmas effects, a wireless remote, and a scrim to project onto. The specs on the projector looked questionable, but after getting it and testing it ourselves we couldn't be happier!
 

Volunteers?

Anyone out there interested in volunteering to help out at the Haunt this year? 
We're only open 10/30 and 10/31 from 7-10pm but would welcome volunteers that would like to be scareactors or just help with traffic control or any of the other aspects.
