We catch up with Allen Hopps from Stilt Beast Studios on the Transworld Show Floor. Stiltbeast debuted their ‘Bootanicals’ Line of products and, as you’ll hear, celebrated a record-breaking year. This is part of our vendor showcase series, in partnership with the Haunted Attraction Association. Tyler from the Scare Factor conducted this interview.

This Q&A session was recorded live at Transworld immediately following the 2022 State of the Industry Presentation. You’ll hear the Haunted Attraction Association’s Board of Directors take questions from the audience on a range of topics from logistics to staffing, the war’s impact, and whether demand will stay strong. We aired the full State of the Industry presentation on Monday; check back in our feed for that if you want to listen. Notes: https://www.haunt.news/

This is the full Haunted Attraction Association’s 2022 State of the Industry Presentation recorded live on Saturday from Transworld’s Halloween & Attractions Show. The presentation begins with board member introductions and then proceeds through the presentation agenda. The HAA will release the slides later next month for you to download. While I snipped a few things out for continuity, this remains mostly unedited; just keep that in mind while listening as this is a longer than usual episode. We will air the Q&A session on Wednesday, so stay tuned for that. Subscribe: https://www.haunt.news/

Today is day 2 of Transworld’s Halloween & Attraction show in St Louis. This show is always pure madness, and this year is no exception. To illustrate what the show is like, I’m going to play an episode we aired last year, which chronicles the Transworld experience via audio diary from 4 attendees.
We talk a lot about the haunt community and how important it is. For many haunters, the largest community gathering is the Halloween and Attractions Show in St Louis. But- it’s tough to describe this show to you. Instead, we are taking you inside the perspective of three different attendees. Three days in St Louis told via audio diary from three quite different attendees – a first timer, a first-time vendor, and a veteran. Featured in this episode: Brian Foreman from Haunter’s Toolbox and ScareIt Badges, Max Bryant, Scott Swenson, Scott Tater Lynd, Doug Schaefer, and Dalton Dale.
