Unfortunately, my job at the haunted house is as greeter and doorkeeper (we only let about 8 people go in at a time to keep it from getting too crowded) so I didn't have time to get many stills.

Why not to use flash in a metallic room
but at least you can see our poor mind-controlled mad scientist

I think I need to find a way to do a simple illumination of the rear chevrons...
Our Annual Haunted House is held the Monday before Hallowe'en and open to all building residents (right now, that includes some Hitachi folk) and their families. We ran from 3:30 to 6:00PM so that people could bring their kids after school. Some people also bring in friends or friends of their kids.
We move into the conference rooms on Friday to get all the furniture out and set the airwalls. Saturday, a volunteer crew comes in to build the set, about a 10 hour job. Occasionally (like this year) a few come back Sunday to add finishing touches and repair anything that's fallen over. Monday morning is our last chance to fix anything before we open up.
While the haunted house is running, there are cookies, punch and coloring activities available on the other side of the exit, so even children too young or too scared to go in have something to do. All the kids get treat bags, too. Tuesday morning we tear it all back down.
Every year we get asked why we only do it for one afternoon and have to explain that we can't schedule the rooms (or the cast!) for more time than that.
