Ive been thinking about giving scare acting a try. From social media and stories here it seems like something id have a lot of fun with and be good at.

Love wearing an outfit and getting into a character

Love improv and interacting with people in character

Huge dnd ren faire nerd.

Love horror special effects and horror art.

Seems like a fun group of people doing fun things.

Plus low bar of entry which is good since I have no acting experience besides a murder mystery dinner and a "haunt" my highschool put on one night.

Here is the catch tho. I do not like being scared myself.

Ive never gone through a proper haunt nor would I want to. I only watch cheesy horror movies or old classics nothing that really jumps ya.

Do you guys think this is a deal breaker or are there others with a similar mentality.

Also to give context im thinking of applying to a small amusement park's halloween event. 5 haunts and 4 scare zones. Nothing crazy I think.

Am I crazy or is a lot of the stuff really pricey. I get the furniture and vintage stuff in good quality but youve got random blue prints and classroom maps going for 50 to 150. I found an old fire blanket holder that was essentially a metal trash can and I got excited cause I thought i could make good use of it only to see it was like 200. Maybe im out of touch just waking through always bums me out.

Edit: wanted to specify again all the larger items and furniture I usually agree with the price. Especially the handmade stuff. Yall deserve every penny. Its the smaller stuff I would have imagined being more in my realm.
