"Scary Creative" for Halloween
An Over Coffee® special-edition podcast!
"There's so much more to haunting than just getting a startle," says legendary haunter Shar Mayer.
"I want you to scream. I want you to cry. But I'm going to respect you as a human...I'm not into torturing people. I just want them to scream, and be scared."
In this 2018 interview, recorded onsite at ScareLA, Shar, who is a haunt consultant, producer, scare actor and all-round "scary creative" (she mentors and teaches aspiring haunters and workshops) shares some of her favorite insights on creating an effective and fun Halloween "scare".
And she even offers some low-cost tips on ghoulish makeup that could work for you today--and which uses ingredients you may have in your kitchen!
Happy Halloween, be safe and stay innovative!
