Haunted Houses

By Jeanne Nagle

As long as haunted houses have entertained thrill-seekers, they have also been moneymaking ventures for entrepreneurs. This intriguing title introduces readers to a world they likely rarely think about, much less consider as a possible job and even lifelong career. Haunted houses can be proving grounds and provide gainful employment for many different skillsets: contractors, makeup artists, special effects practitioners, actors, and many more. Covering everything from big-name amusement parks to small-scale, seasonal tourist attractions run by small businesspeople, this title provides a history of haunted houses and a handy beginner's guide for a creative career in chilling showmanship.
