STEVEN AMIDJINOV (Psycho)

Steven Amidjinov was without a doubt my star kid scare actor for the 2010 Halloween Season,
I think I've created a monster!!!

Steven was amazing, he took to scaring the hell out of adults and kids, like a Trick 'R' Treater takes to candy. He actually had people running away from him every time he got into his Psycho Killer Character. Steven was really good at analyzing people and working off of their fear.

Steven also has a huge heart, he helped with the set up and tear down of my haunt this year. He was around almost every evening during the week of Halloween and was always willing to lead a helping hand.

I believe a star has been born and this kid could go places in his future with the haunt industry or anything else he sets his mind too.

KIM PORTNIK (The Killer Clown)

Kim Portnik was one of my scare actors this Halloween and more...

Kim supported our haunt throughout the week leading up to Halloween almost every night by scaring people and helped with the construction of the entire haunt.

He's an amazing kid, he stayed to the bitter end to tear down the haunt in the dark and never complained once. I wish all the other kids in the neighborhood were like him.

Thanks again Kim.

IT'S NOW COSTING ME MONEY

"Well it's official" my home haunt is now costing me money.

I've complete run out of storage space in my house, I've raised the bar to high this year by building a walk through Mausoleum that has totally consumed my two car driveway and garage.


I now have to rent storage space to keep all my wall panels, canopy tent, tomb stones, and all my pillars.

I owe a big thank you to my friend Lorne Andrews from the Power House of Terror for allowing me to share one of the three tractor trailers he uses to store his haunt at the end of Halloween season.

I guess I'll just have to stop buying or making more props...Ya Right!!!

2010 HALLOWEEN


Sorry everyone for not getting some photo's up sooner or answering any of your emails, but I've been busy tearing down my haunt and looking after my boys while my wife is away.

Attendance was down this year vs. last year, we only had 2,784 Trick 'R' Treater's. How do we know, we count the donated candy we hand out. Halloween night was only 2 degrees, so it was a cold night for the kiddies; plus they had school the next day.

But the good news is my donations were up, I budgeted $4,000 and I collected $4,781.87 for SickKids Foundation, my biggest year yet. Heart felt thank you go's out to all my family, friends, and amazing nieghbors for helping me set up and tear down again this year.

Now the depression sets in until next Halloween
