Having worked and designed multiple haunted attractions, hayride/zombie paintball with a haunted cornmaze, we have kept our creepy bones a creaking. Equipped with plenty of ideas, we retreat to the lab to whip up some new and innovative products. We have been known to build a few things. Hopefully our enthusiasm rubs off on those we come in contact with.

Haunt Prop maker, designer, engineer, mad scientist, voice talent and all around "Wizard of Weird". Marty Lane aka "Mad Marty" / "Marty Macabre" has been involved in the haunt industry starting as far back as 1981 when he worked and helped design rooms for a local mall haunt. (yes, that was a thing back then and was cutting edge in its day). It was so successful, there was a sequel haunt the next year that opened in a shopping center (yep, that was a thing too). Several other haunts followed, getting us where we are today. He hasn't stopped looking under the bed since.

Debbey is our trusted office manager. She keeps things running smoothly around here. She knows the sounds made by 8 track tape and is good at playing records. She had a Playtape growing up...anyone know what that is? She remembers! But she finally upgraded to digital. Ah, progress. Plus, she is mean with a tape gun. What more could you ask for?
