About the application

This is a VOLUNTEER position, meaning you are not entitled to any monetary compensation, but there are other perks such as free event tickets and snacks/refreshments. Ghouls will do festival scares and can be part of the haunt. Job description: Scuttle around in full costume to spook the guests. Jump scares are welcome, but do not be physically violent. Do not touch patrons unless it is as mundane as a tap on the shoulder. Do not scare or bother people who obviously are bothered (in not a fun way). Please adhere to the glowstick rules. There will be a haunted trail/haunted house to spook in later at night as well, put on by Lake Joy Trails of Terror (a nonprofit)! Hours: 3pm-12am Fri & Sat, 6pm-10pm Sun
