    The Zombie Face Mugs of Turkey Merck Pottery
    We came across some pieces of hand-sculpted pottery which captured in their oozing faces the essence of the industry- the zombie head mug series by Kevin Merck. Functional, fascinatingly detailed, and gruesome these mugs have become quite famous. Kevin comes on the show to discuss their process.

    Fright Props - Props For Your Haunted Attraction
    Joining us today is Drew Ailes, Chief of Halloween Enthusiasm at FrightProps. FrightProps is, in my opinion, one of the most prolific vendors in the industry; I personally have used them for my haunts many times.

    FrightProps was founded by Doug Anderson, but not before a little shifting around in life. He started in tech, later sold that company and started a haunt called The Dig right outside of Denver in Broomfield. Doug recognized a need for, basically, a vendor made for haunters by haunters; after relocating the business to Bloomington, Minnesota, he gathered a small team and began build FrightProps into what it is today.

    FrightProps produces a lot in house but is also a reseller for many other vendors.

    Gantom Lighting - Making an Impact using Light in Your Attraction
    Joining us today is Landin Fuseman, Marketing Director at Gantom Lighting. Gantom, formerly Darklight, was founded in spring of 2010 as a manufacturer of special effects lighting equipment catering to the themed attraction industry. They specialize in illumination of low-light and space constrained environments where traditional theatrical luminaires are not suitable. In late 2014, after experiencing extraordinary growth over several years, Darklight rebranded to Gantom; a combination of “Gan,” our founder’s last name, and “phantom,” which reflects their humble Halloween lighting beginnings.
