Haunted Education / Seminars

OPEN CALL FOR SPEAKERS!

As we finalize the details for this year’s HAuNTcon, I want to invite YOU to share your knowledge, your experience and your expertise with our attendees!

EACH OF US has something important to share, whether you are a seasoned veteran or new to our industry, fresh, bold, new ideas are what HAuNTcon is all about!

Do a make-up demo, show and tell for a great prop you built, tell us what you have learned about haunt marketing, offer a make-n-take, show us how you use social media, share your best room designs, tech us how you train your actors, how did you get funding, help us write a business plans – whatever your expertise, whatever you have learned from your experience inside or outside haunting that will help others do what they do cheaper, faster, better, we ask you to tell us about it!

It is said that public speaking is people’s greatest fear, but I find that when I know the subject matter, really know what I am trying to say, that presenting a seminar is exhilarating!

So what are you afraid of? CLICK HERE to fill the speaker form! You will be glad you did and so will our attendees!

Education is the Key!

The difference between a first time Haunter and a seasoned veteran is knowledge. Knowledge about what to do and what not to do, about what has worked in the past and what has not. Without this knowledge gained through years of experience and experimentation, a Haunter is doomed to make the same mistakes that have been made time after time before.

At HAuNTcon the learning never stops! With over 50 hours of Haunter education, new ideas and nuances of old ones are refined and sometimes tried and true methods are thrown out all together for better more efficient techniques.

Education is the key to success in the Haunted Attraction industry! And HAuNTcon has THE most extensive education program available anywhere!

Spending years accumulating the knowledge required to be successful is both costly and time consuming, but there is another way, and that is through education! By learning from the experience of others, first time haunters AND seasoned veterans alike can strive for a better understanding this thing we call Haunting. Learning what others who have traveled this path before us, found effective and what was a waste of time, allows us to raise our own attractions to a level greater than we could ever dream of doing ourselves.

Education is THE most important part of any conference, tradeshow or convention, and HAuNTcon has taken this concept to heart. Offering over 50 hours of FREE seminars during 3 day event, including sessions on marketing your event, how to use textiles and detail to increase the realism of your attraction, building animatronics, increasing your income, and decreasing your expenses, budgeting and business plans, all designed to make your attraction and your bottom line the best it can be in the coming season.

Take advantage of this unparalleled opportunity to pick the brains of the best and brightest Haunters in the industry. Whether you are just now planning your first Haunted Attraction, or are a veteran Haunter with years of experience, there are sessions targeted just for you! The best part is that this education is totally FREE with admission to the show! Be sure to carefully select the sessions you plan to attend and get there early. Seating is limited and many of the seminars will fill up early.
