Weekly Update

We have had quite a productive day today with Magna and Pixel One, the website designers.  We have finalised budgets for Bunker 13 now so its full systems go and the website and promo video for the attraction should be live by Monday next week.  We have also seen the work done so far on the new GNG Entertainment website and it’s looking very nice indeed.  Hopefully this will be up and running in the next few weeks.

So, with Bunker 13, this is where we are.  The full design for the maze is finished and approved and the architectural drawings are done.  The H & S team at Magna have given the rubber stamp on the layout which was a load off our mind!  We have a full prop list for everything we need to put into the maze and some of the more bespoke pieces are currently under construction.  We have been approached by a student from Manchester University who is in her last year of studying special effects and makeup who will be joining the team to do the work on the creatures inside the show, we are very excited by this.  The press packs are all done for the launch night and these will be sent out soon to try and get some good newspapers, radio stations etc down for the night along with the industry people, Michael Bolton from Scare Tours/Scarecon has already said he will be making an appearance to review the show so we better pull out all the stops!

Now, on to Haunted – Live and Xtreme.  The website is now under construction and filming of the promo video should be happening next week all being well.  We have quite a tight turnaround to get everything done as the show is in just over 2 months but we are confident it will all be sorted in time.  Tickets for this one will be sold through PayPal or on the door of Haunted throughout the coming weeks.  There will also be discounted entry for anyone who goes on the official Haunted tour as well.  The back story has been approved and all the rooms have now been storyboarded and scripted.  We have 25 actors who have applied to be part of the show so we should get some good talent for the 10 we need for the attraction.

That’s about it for those 2 shows, we are currently working on an outdoor event for Halloween under the working title “Blood Moon”, more on this when we get the official nod.
