JOIN A TOP-NOTCH HAUNT TEAM

Are you ready to bring the scares?

Cinema of Horrors is building a team of energetic performers, artists, technicians, builders and guest experience pros who share our obsession with Halloween and creating unforgettable experiences.

We work hard, have fun and take the show seriously.

Every scream, scare, scene and guest interaction is powered by people who show up ready, bring the energy, take coaching, own their role and support the team around them.

You don’t need years of haunt experience to earn a spot here. You do need a strong work ethic, a great attitude and the drive to get better.

If you thrive on Halloween, high energy and creating experiences people won’t stop talking about, we want to hear from you.

SEE WHAT IT TAKES

There’s a lot more behind a great haunted attraction than what guests see when the lights go down.

Meet the people, performers and crew who bring Cinema of Horrors to life and get a look behind the scenes at what it takes to create the scares.

GREAT HAUNTS DON’T HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT

Cinema of Horrors is built by people who care about what they do.

We want this to be an incredible place to work, but we also expect our team to take pride in the experience we’re creating together.

• Show Up Ready: Being on time is the minimum. Arrive prepared, focused and ready to contribute.
• Own The Role: Take responsibility for your position, your performance and the impact you have on the show.
• Take The Coaching: Feedback isn’t punishment. It’s how good performers and great teams get better. Listen, adjust and improve.
• Bring The Energy: Guests don’t know whether it’s opening night or your twentieth performance. They deserve the same incredible experience.
• Support The Team: No egos. No unnecessary drama. Help the people around you succeed and step up when something needs to get done.
• Deliver For The Guest: At the end of the night, everything comes back to the experience we created for the people who walked through our doors.

THIS ISN’T FOR EVERYONE

We want you to have an absolute blast working here.

But haunted attractions can also be demanding.

October means late nights, loud environments, large crowds, dark spaces, theatrical fog, flashing lights, physical performances and nights when you may be tired with another hundred guests still waiting to experience the show.

That’s part of what makes it exciting.

It also means your teammates need to be able to count on you.

This probably isn’t the right fit if you regularly call out, struggle to take direction, need constant supervision to stay productive, bring unnecessary drama into the workplace or stop giving effort when you’re tired.

But if you love Halloween, take pride in your work, want to get better and enjoy working alongside people who are committed to creating something awesome…

You’re exactly who we want to meet.
