FAQs - Please read the following information before completing the Bio Form. There are some updates since last year.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS NOTICE
If you have any underlying conditions like asthma, heart conditions, etc.  Or if you do not feel you are physically fit,  we ask consider your health and make sure you feel physically fit enough to work the full season.  We do not want to risk your health.  If you have a condition like asthma or severe allergies, please tell us in the bio information below.

WHAT TIME COMMITMENT IS EXPECTED?

We will be open every dates listed below.  In addition we will have a rehearsal night that is required for all cast members.  You will be asked to arrive around 6:30 (or before) on any night we are open.
--- Rehearsal Nights: Sept 23-24 (everyone must attend one, date determined by your scene).  We will try on costumes, and practice in your scene.
--- Open Nights: Oct 1, Oct 8, Oct 14-15, Oct 21-22, Oct 28-29 (not open Halloween night)


IF I'M IN A PAID POSITION, HOW DOES THE PAY GET CALCULATED?

We will pay based on the operation hours of the event, starting when we open that night (either 7:30 or 8pm).  You will not receive payment for any practice or costume/makeup time.  If we close early or cannot open due to inclement weather, you will be paid for the time we were open that night, if applicable.  Payment is only based on the times we are entertaining our customers for the nights you are present.  In order to be paid, you must work ALL nights that we are open.  Any exceptions must be approved by Cynthia before the season begins.

WHEN WILL I RECEIVE THE MONEY I EARN?

If you are in a paid position, checks will be available for pickup on November 9th, if you have worked all nights as agreed. Please make sure we have your correct name and mailing address (you will fill that in below).  Any not picked up on Nov 9th will be mailed on Nov 10th.

CAN I BRING A FRIEND/FAMILY MEMBER TO HELP ME ON THE NIGHT(S) I WORK?

No.  We can only have cast members who have gone through the steps like you have to fill out a questionnaire and earn an assigned role.  

WILL ZF PROVIDE MY COSTUME?

We will have most costumes, but in some cases we need you to provide part of your costume.  We will discuss this with you individually, depending on the role you are given.  Work boots of some sort would be best since you will be walking in woods.  No white tennis shoes are allowed.   If you do not have these items, I would suggest checking the local thrift stores.

Many roles require a Halloween mask to be worn, so please be prepared to wear one if your position requires one.  If a mask is required, ZF will provide it for you.

WHAT ARE SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER?

1. Actors should never talk on or use their phone where a customer can see you.  The glow of the cell phone can be seen far away.  We may ask you to leave if you are seen talking on your cell phone while in a scene.
2. Stay in character at all times, even going to and from the bathroom or actor camp.
3. NEVER touch or chase the customers.  The trail is a natural walking trail and therefore has many inherent dangers.  We want the customers walking slowly at all times.
4. October temperatures vary, but you should expect some cold nights.  Dress in layers.
5. We recommend bringing a bottle of water, a flashlight, and small snack each night.
