Join the Dark Woods Scream Team!

We are looking for energetic and enthusiastic people to be part of the Dark Woods Scream Team. If you love the art of scaring people in a fun and safe environment, are an experienced haunter or first-time haunter, or just have a love for Halloween, then we would like to meet you. We are looking for all types of actors from stilt-walkers, performers, puppeteers, physically demanding roles, roaming characters and haunted house scare-actors. We are also looking for skilled make-up artists, concession workers, security, parking lot attendees and other support staff.

Ghoul School 2025

Dark Woods is holding auditions and once again will open our doors to Dark Woods Ghoul School. Our ghoul school is where we teach you how to become a scary monster, zombie, and much more. Both of our attractions combined need actors to make the City of Lights, the City of FRIGHTS!

You must be 18 or older to apply and be able to pass a background check!

We invite you to attend an audition for Dark Woods Haunted Attraction. Please wear your normal street clothes. No costumes please. Fill out the contact form on this page to RSVP for this year’s Ghoul School.

“Not many teenage girls can say they’ve made grown men cry and soil themselves. I can say that with pride because of my time spent scaring at Dark Woods!”

Genevene F.

“You’ll scheme and plot, finding new ways to make victims scream in fear. You also meet new people, fellow horror fans. But who am I kidding, the best part is letting your inner monster out!”

Coery P.

“You get to be a part of an awesome inclusive and supportive group that is the Dark Woods family.”

Joshua S

” If you are looking for a way to break out of your shell, this is a really fun way to do it! It is quite the experience. Plus you get a really amazing, supportive family from it. I wouldn’t have wanted to spend my time anywhere else. We are the dark!”

Danielle T

” Having fun and entertaining is what it’s all about, that is what we deliver, and then some! I love Dark Woods and my Dark Woods family!! Welcome, to anyone that’d like to join the dark, as well as be apart of an experience you won’t ever forget.”

Savanna W.
