Haunted Attraction Association (HAA) was formed to align Halloween haunts and serve as the voice of the haunted attraction industry. HAA is the only official association in the haunt industry.

How did HAA come about? With the growing popularity in visiting haunted attractions in the past 25 years, the haunt industry is now approximately $300 million in size with an estimated 2,500 haunted attractions worldwide that entertain millions and employ tens of thousands.

The mission of HAA is to promote a network of haunted attractions including haunted houses, haunted hayrides, scream parks, mega-haunts, Halloween festivals, haunted outdoor trails, corn mazes and amusement park Halloween events.

HAA is based in Winnetka, Illinois and was formed in 2010 between a merger of the International Association of Haunted Attractions that was founded in 1998 and the Haunted House Association, founded in 2009.

Spokesperson: President Patrick Konopelski was quoted, “This industry is one of the most exciting places to be,” says Konopelski. “While it’s rise may have started with the increasing popularity of Halloween 20 to 25 years ago, there is now an entire extended Haunt Season, which starts in September and runs through November, that appeals to Baby Boomers and all ages.”

HAA offers numerous programs that allows its worldwide network of members to freely exchange ideas, information, experiences and concerns via educational seminars, conferences, exclusive networking events, message boards, tradeshows, newsletters, magazines and more.

In addition, the association advises the haunt industry on haunt safety standards to protect customers. HAA offers Certified Haunted Attraction Operator Seminar (C.H.A.O.S.) safety classes that provide a certification to establish haunts as a safe attraction.

Long gone are the simplistic days of just black walls, Halloween spook masks and cheesy plastic knives. Each year haunted attraction owners and operators spend millions of dollars on state-of-the-art special effects and audio animatronic creatures, Hollywood-quality makeup and masks, costumes, lighting gear, sound equipment and more.

Today, owners and operators are also influenced by video games and invest year-round in research, consulting experts and psychologists on how to create the best immersive, interactive experience.

The Hollywood sign received its last makeover back in the 1970’s when several celebrities such as Playboy founder Hugh Hefner helped by funding the project.

Originally built back in 1923, the famous landmark the represents the thriving Hollywood movie industry.

The sign will be stripped down to sheet metal, then primed and repainted with white paint. National paint brand Sherwin-Williams will supply their industry-leading Emerald Exterior Acrylic Latex paint.

The makeover is expected to take 8 to 10 weeks and will require about 275 gallons of paint to bring the iconic sign back to a pristine condition.

KISS Monster Book – Photo by Ben Pruchnie / Getty Images Europe

Often regarded as one of the biggest rock bands in the world, KISS recently launched the largest rock book ever published – KISS Monster Book.

This new book chronicles a 40 year career of rock band KISS. KISS Monster Book is a limited edition book offering rare photography of this iconic rock band originally from Detroit, Michigan.

The oversized KISS book towers 3 feet high by 2.5 feet wide and is 2 inches thick! The book features 127 photographs by world-renowned rock photographers and includes both rare and never-before-seen images sourced from the band’s own archives.

This incredible book is a collectors dream and will be hard to get a hold of. Only 1,000 copies are available. Each KISS Monster Book will be individually signed , dated and numbered by the four members of the current KISS band.

KISS Monster Book

What makes this KISS book unique is not just the size. It was printed in high-definition links by one of the world’s finest limited-edition and large format printers. Each book copy was then carefully hand stitched, then bound in Italy. What’s fascinating is the binder is the same one used by The Vatican. How ironic is that?

The KISS book was introduced on August 21 in at the Viper Room. Band bass guitarist Gene Simmons was quoted, “When They Say Size Doesn’t Matter, They’re Lying.”

JK Rowling

Famous “Harry Potter” author JK Rowling got approval last week to move forward with her plans to create large tree houses for her children in her own garden.

JK Rowling is 47 years old and lives in a stunning 17th-century mansion, located in an Edinburgh, Scotland suburb along with her husband and three children.

Inspired by the style of Hogwarts Castle in the extremely popular Harry Potter movies, Rowling plans for each tree house to measure bout 40 feet (12 meters) high. They will each have tall conical roofs and turreted windows.

Receiving approval for the tress houses was not without problems. The City of Edinburgh Council gave the go ahead despite several complaints from JK Rowling’s neighbors. The main issue was that the tree-houses may be visible from the road and affect the area’s landscape.

City of Edinburgh Council granted Rowling’s request, after determining that the development would not have a negative impact on the conservation area.

The council received artist impressions of the planned tree houses, detailing them to be built on wooden stilts and connected together by a rope bridge. The Rowling tree houses will also include decorative lanterns above the doors, balconies, steel slide, trap door and an impressive spiral staircase.

Many music fans were anticipating the return to the public eye of Adele, the six-time-nominee. This was her first public performance since having to cancel her tour and recover from vocal cord surgery.

But Adele left no doubt who stole the Grammy show. She won six Grammys, including the top three categories of record and song of the year for “Rolling in the Deep,” plus album of the year for “21.”

Music wasn’t the only topic of discussion this evening in Los Angeles. The 54th annual Grammy Awards red carpet was alive with fine fashion. Here are a few of the notable fashion standouts.
