"What have I gotten myself into?"

I gotta be honest, I'm kinda diggin' the eye liner look.

The make up department was very impressive. I was told they have about 40 make up artists and they do between 8-10 characters per night.

As you can see in this photo, there were several make up stations set up. Each actor takes between 15-30 minutes for complete make up.

"Hi mom!"

"You're not going to post this to Facebook, are you?"

"How much for your little girls. Sell them to me!"

This is Patricia. She made me look awesome!

I am Dr. Alvey and I will suck your blood!

Getting ready to go into our maze, Club Blood. Now, I'd like to chat about my experience just for a moment here... First off, of all the crazy theme park "being an employee for a day" stunts I've been allowed to do, this is by far the most amazing and memorable moment! As for what it was like being in the maze... On one hand, I was amazed that people literally fell to the floor cowering over a simply **BANG** on the wall and me shouting "BOOGEY! BOOGEY! BOOGEY!" (I actually did this!) On the other hand, watching some of the other scare actors who really had their act down was impressive to see first hand, and gives you a lot more appreciation for the hard work these guys do. Overall, it was so much fun! If you are an outgoing personality, and this sort of thing interests you, I highly recommend "moonlighting" at your local parks Halloween Haunt. It was not disappointing at all!

They couldn't have picked a better maze to put us in. We were all vampires, surrounded by...

Amazingly hot pole dancing women!!! YES!!!!

I was in the hallway RIGHT before this room. I would tell the guests "Come dance with my women" and many of them would get into the groove and break into a rhythm! From a psychological standpoint, it was very interesting to see how much control I had over the people walking through the maze. Because they had no idea what I would do to them, they would follow my every instruction. Even the most buff macho guy broke into dance. Some people were just scared of my presence (who wouldn't be!) and just standing there would cause them to scream and cower.

Peek-a-boo! I see you!

"I like your women! Sell them to me! Dance with my girls!" I want to send a huge THANK YOU to all the familiar faces I saw in the maze tonight. Many of you didn't recognize me until I started talking, which I thought was very cool! I think I saw at least 40 TPR members come through, and if you're one of the people who took a picture of me in the maze, please post them! For those of you who texted me and missed me in the maze, I certainly hope the park will allow us to do this again next year!

John looked very creepy!

Knott's has certainly upped the bar in terms of their mazes since my last visit. Attention to detail was better, use of audio and environmental scares was improved.

I think what I love most about Halloween events is just the overall atmosFEAR of the park!
