Haunters / Scarers - Open Cast Call !!! (Eastvale / Corona, CA)© craigslist - Map data © OpenStreetMap

In previous years we have received rave reviews from the Haunt Community (ie: social media and In-Haunt reviewers). We look forward to the upcoming Haunt season and to providing the best possible experience for our patrons. The most valuable part of our ability to provide that superior experience to our patrons is our cast, for without our superior cast – we would be just another run of the mill “Haunt”. Our cast is comprised of members who volunteer their time and members who have paid positions. The members who volunteer their time gain incentives such as tickets to other park sponsored events (ie: Koroneburg Renaissance Festival, Coffin Creek tickets, and points within various LARPs that utilize the park – limitations apply). Paying positions are available part-time (meaning you are not available every night of the run), or full-time (meaning you are available every night of the run). Volunteers and cast members available for full-time, will fill open cast member positions first, with the part time members filling remaining open cast positions, based on availability and managements discretion. Minimum age for paid haunters / scarers is 18 years old. All crew members must have already received Covid vaccination, (proof required). 2021 Schedule Day of Week Date Begin Shift End Shift Friday 8-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Saturday 9-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Sunday 10-Oct 7:00 PM 10:00 PM Friday 15-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Saturday 16-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Sunday 17-Oct 7:00 PM 10:00 PM Friday 22-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Saturday 23-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Sunday 24-Oct 7:00 PM 10:00 PM Thursday 28-Oct 7:00 PM 10 PM Friday 29-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Saturday 30-Oct 7:00 PM 12:00 AM Sunday 31-Oct 7:00 PM 10:00 PM To members who volunteered in previous years, a special “Thank you!”. The Haunt helps to provide the revenue needed to maintain the site through-out the year, as well as provide funding for much needed improvements to the sites infrastructure. It is because of events such as The Haunt that we are able to offer the site to other events such as The Renaissance Festival, the various LARPs, the Chili Cook-Off, Weddings, Birthday Party rentals, Quinceaneras, and other such activities. It is through your continued efforts and support that we are able to continue year after year! We are looking to fill the last of our open cast positions. Cast members will be assigned to specific mazes and roles, though they may need to be reassigned to varying roles based on needs as Haunt runs. If you have any friends or family members who would be interested in joining our cast this year, please have them reach out to us as we are looking to strengthen our cast this year. If interested, please reply to CoffinCreekCast@gmail.com, and provide your contact information (full name, address, city, state, zipcode, phone number and email address) as well as if you are available as a full time (meaning available every night of run), or part time (meaning not available every night of run) cast member.
