Rocky Horror Picture Show

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the 1975 film adaptation of the British musical stageplay, The Rocky Horror Show. The movie is a parody of science fiction and B-movie horror films. Still, in limited release 35 years after its premiere, it has the longest-running theatrical release in film history. It gained notoriety as a midnight movie in 1977 when audiences began participating in the film in theatres. Rocky Horror is the first film from a major Hollywood studio to be in the midnight movie market. The motion picture has a large international following and is one of the most well-known and financially successful midnight movies of all time.

Nightmare Mansion Auditions

Haunted House

The owners of Castle of Chaos and the new Nightmare Mansion are looking for the biggest, the tallest, and the scariest people to work as actors to frighten audiences at their two haunted houses. The company is holding three auditions in August and September and hopes to hire 100 part-time, seasonal employees to work during the big haunting season. The company is also looking for volunteers.

“Scaring people is a dream job for many,” says James Bernard, Castle of Chaos and Nightmare Mansion owner. “We are actually going to pay people to come out and put their most socially unacceptable skills to work. Volunteers will receive incentives like t-shirts, tickets, and hats.”
