Haunt Rules by Spectral Illusions
“I’ve got my eye on you… so follow the rules, or else.”
Haunt Rules by Spectral Illusions is a clever, character-driven way to lay down the law before your guests enter your haunted attraction. This two-minute digital effect features a delightfully creepy skeleton with a single glowing eye who delivers the house rules with flair, menace, and just the right dose of humor. Rather than posting a static sign or having staff awkwardly shout over the crowd, this animated character becomes part of the show—capturing attention and setting the tone for a spooky (but safe) experience.
The vocal performance is a standout: ominous, engaging, and theatrical without going over-the-top. The skeleton goes through a list of universal haunt rules—no running, touching, pushing, smoking, swearing, flashlights, phones, or photography—along with health warnings for guests with medical conditions or sensitivity to lights and sound. He wraps it up with a firm warning that misbehavior will lead to removal… all while reminding you that he’s got his “eye on you.” It’s both effective and entertaining, making it ideal for queue lines, entryways, or pre-show rooms where guests need to be informed without losing the mood.
Creative Use Cases:
Project Haunt Rules onto a large screen or hanging scrim at the entrance to your attraction so it becomes the first ghostly figure your guests encounter. For added realism, embed a TV monitor inside a themed kiosk, skeleton prop, or coffin façade and dress the surrounding area to match the character’s style—think old tombstones, glowing eyes, or chains. You can even pair it with synchronized lighting cues (like a flicker or flash when he gets intense) to enhance the delivery and punctuate key points.
Our Recommendation:
Haunt Rules is a fun and functional must-have for any haunt that wants to start strong and stay in theme. The animation may be simple, but the character’s delivery and tone elevate it into a scene-worthy pre-show. It’s a great way to ensure guests hear the rules while still feeling like the haunt has already begun.
