👻 Forest of Freaks – Actor Rules 2025 👻
Welcome to the 18th year of terror! As part of the Forest of Freaks family, you’re not just an actor — you’re a vital part of the scare. To keep the show safe, fun, and unforgettable, all actors must follow these rules:
🔒 General Rules
-
You must be 16 or older to participate. (unless family acts with you)
-
Check in on time for every shift — late arrivals affect the entire show.
-
No alcohol, drugs, or being under the influence while on property. Immediate removal if violated.
-
Respect all staff, actors, and guests at all times.
-
Stay in your assigned zone unless moved by a manager.
🎭 Performance Rules
-
No touching guests (and no guests may touch you). Use proximity, props, and sound to scare.
-
Stay in character at all times when in view of guests.
-
Don’t break character unless there is an emergency.
-
Some props and costumes are provided — treat them with care and return them each night.
-
Follow zone-specific scare tactics as trained.
🛡️ Safety Rules
-
Emergency phrase is “Code Red” — use if someone is injured or a dangerous situation occurs.
-
No running in dark areas — move quickly but controlled.
-
Use caution with props, animatronics, and set pieces. Report damage immediately.
-
Stay hydrated — water breaks are scheduled.
💀 Expectations & Perks
-
Bring your energy every night — the more effort you give, the scarier the haunt.
-
Pay, meals, and merch are provided for all cast members.
-
Attendance and performance will be considered for returning roles and promotions in future seasons.
⚠️ Remember: We scare guests, not each other. We want screams — not injuries. Keep it safe, keep it creepy, and let’s make 2025 the scariest year yet!
