Haunted Attraction Network

Over the past 17 years, Fear Farm in Phelan has grown from a porch display into a multi-attraction ticketed event. While it's still in a residential area, clearly the team has plans to expand. Coming up, we’re going on location to learn about the design choices behind the major attraction Sundown Manor. Follow along to our Hauntathon: https://linktr.ee/hauntedattractionnetwork

Dark Stories read by the author, Scott Swenson. From the book jacket: “This is a collection of poetry and prose written between 2015 and 2019. These pieces were inspired by nightmares, late night walks with the dog, jumprope rhymes, horror comics and several glasses of wine after midnight. I was able to revisit a character created in a previous book, explore the minds of a few psychopaths and even sneak in a bit of hidden political commentary. These stories and poems run the gamut from sarcastic to caustic. The artwork is a series of acrylic paintings I did specifically for the book. The cover art was created in color and the five illustrations within the book were all painted in black and white. I am very excited that I am finally able to get these pieces out of my head and into your hands…enjoy.” Explore the book: http://scottswenson.com/books
