Yesterday was by far one of the best days ive ever had setting up the haunt in 4 years. I Love my team and we absolutely made s**t happen yesterday. From morning till the morning came back again we pushed ourselves on getting what should take almost a week done in 16 hours. THIS IS WHY WE SUCCEED. 🧛‍♂️🥷🎃💪🦇

Day one of our managers retreat at the TransWorld's East Coast Haunters Convention in Pennsylvania and man the haunt tours were top notch this year. They truly brought the heat. 🔥 Big shout out to Lincoln Mill Haunted House and Pennhurst Asylum for their friday night haunt tours.

Truly such awesome work from both haunts. 💪 🎃
