The Haunted Attraction Industry joins the fight against breast cancer. Some of the most prominent names that make “Scary” their business are pulling every skeleton out of the ground to raise money for Nancy Allen, a fellow Haunter/pervious Haunt Owner. Allen, who is also known as “Elmyra, the Hearse Chic”, was misdiagnosed in August 2008 with doctors stating “only a Cyst”. On December 25th, Allen was diagnosed with Stage 3 Cancer, causing her to have one breast removed with no insurance.
The Official Drive,“Haunters for Hooters”, will take place at Midwest Haunters Convention in Columbus, Ohio June 13-15th. Included in the sponsor list are BIG names like “Midnight Syndicate Films and Soundtracks”, “IAHA”, “Haunted Attraction Magazine”, “Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando”, The Ghoulish Gallery”, Dee Snider from Twisted Sister, Pat Priest from “The Munsters” and Camden Toy from “Angel and Buffy the Vampire Slayer” just to name a few.
More information will be available on the Haunters for Hooters website www.hauntersforhooters.com, hosted by Sinister Visions, The Premier web designer for the Haunted Attraction Industry. | | No comments for this item |

 This year, IAHA (The International Association of Haunted Attractions) traveled to Las Vegas for Transworld’s Haunt Show. It was a definite change of pace from the usual location in Rosemont, IL, just outside of Chicago. IAHA was happy to have a large presence at Transworld for its members.
Prior to the opening of the convention floor, IAHA in conjunction with Mobile Midway Safety Institute (MMSI) was proud to offer the haunted attraction industry’s first and only voluntary national safety certification program. The Certified Haunted Attraction Operator Seminar Program (C.H.A.O.S) consisted of eight hours of safety training provided by professional speakers with a background in amusement safety and loss control inspection.
At the conclusion of the training program, attendees had the opportunity to take a certification test. Upon successful completion of the training & test, attendees were issued a certification certificate as a Certified Haunted Attraction Operator Seminar Graduate (C.H.A.O.S).
