MESSAGE FROM LUNAR TERROR’S CREATIVE DIRECTOR (Lancaster)
LUNAR TERROR PRODUCTIONS IS INDEPENDENTLY OWNED, GEN-Z OWNED AND IS PRIMARILY BASED IN LANCASTER, CALIFORNIA. IT IS AN ART PROJECT CREATED BY ME AND MY ONLINE FRIEND, CASSIUS AS AN EXPRESSION OF OUR VERY OWN PERSONAL NICHES AND AS PROTEST TO ARTLESSNESS THAT MANY ASSUME HAUNTED HOUSES TO POSESS. WE’VE BOTH SPENT OUR CHILDHOODS PLANNING HALLOWEEN AND OUR “HAUNTS” YEAR-ROUND AND OVER THE YEARS, DEVELOPED OUR OWN LANGUAGE OF THIS MEDIUM.
LUNAR TERROR IS CURRENTLY MOST ACTIVE AS A HOME HAUNT HERE IN LANCASTER. I TAKE INSPIRATIONS FROM FILMMAKING, OUTRAGEOUS POP-STAR CONCERTS. HIGH-FASHION AND CINEMA. I MAINLY HAVE THE GOAL OF CREATING “IRL” MOVIES.
AN EXPERIENCE FROM LUNAR TERROR PRODUCTIONS WILL ALWAYS BE CREATED WITH INTEREST, PERSONAL EXPRESSION, EXCLUSIVITY AND YEARS OF CURATION. OUR GOAL IS TO COME AS CLOSE TO HOLLYWOOD-LEVEL PRODUCTION POSSIBLE AND WE’RE ALWAYS IMPROVING MORE AND MORE EVERY YEAR.
WHEN CREATING A HAUNTED HOUSE, I PRODUCE MY OWN ORIGINAL MUSIC IN MY PERSONAL STUDIO FOR EACH SEASON AND PUT TOGETHER THE SOUNDSCAPES. ALONGSIDE THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACKS, I ALSO PUT TOGETHER SHOW PROGRAMMING AND OTHER SPECIAL EFFECTS TO BRING OUT AS MUCH DRAMA TO OUR SCENES.
I DEBUTED MY WORK IN LUNAR TERROR FOR THE 2021 SEASON WITH “VERUM: TRANSCEND AT YOUR OWN RISK.” THE ORIGINAL VERUM WAS A VERY DRAINING AND DIFFICULT EXPERIENCE TO CREATE. FULL OF TROUBLESHOOTING, DELAYED DATES AND ACTOR SHORTAGES BUT STILL REMAINED CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED BY HAUNTED HOUSE INDUSTRY INSIDERS. FOR 2022, “JORO” WAS A STRIPPED DOWN, FASTER PACED HAUNTED HOUSE. IT FEATURED NUMEROUS SENSORY EFFECTS, LIGHTING EFFECTS AND THE FAMILIAR SHOW TECHNOLOGY FROM OUR PREVIOUS PROJECT. FOR 2023, “VERUM” HAD ITS REMAKE THIS SEASON AND DEBUTED WITH VERY LIMITED CAPACITY, FEATURING ORIGINAL DIALOGUE, AN ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK, OTHER UNIQUE SENSORY EFFECTS AND LOTS OF BASS.

INFORMATION ABOUT LUNAR TERROR PRODUCTIONS.
OUR HAUNTED HOUSE IS A HOME HAUNT, MEANING IT’S NON-PROFIT AND HELD ON OUR RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. IN OUR OPINION, THIS DOES NOT MEAN THE EXPERIENCE ISN’T WORTH VISITING IF YOU LIVE IN THE ANTELOPE VALLEY OR LOVE HOME HAUNTS.
LIKE THE BASEMENT HAUNTED HOUSES OF THE 20TH CENTURY, OURS IS SMALL - INSIDE THE 3-CAR GARAGE THAT’S BEEN CONVERTED INTO A HOLLYWOOD-LIKE SET. WE’VE FOUND WAYS TO MAXIMIZE THE SPACE AND LENGTH TO OUR HAUNT. THE EXPERIENCES WE’VE MADE IN OUR “SOUNDSTAGE” AVERAGE AT ABOUT 4-8 MINUTES, WHICH IS LONGER THAN A UNIVERSAL HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS HOUSE THAT PEOPLE WAIT HOURS FOR.
HOW TO GET THE MOST OF THE EXPERIENCE
SINCE THE HAUNT IS HELD ON RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY, PARKING IS FREE BUT FINITE. WE RECOMMEND YOU CARPOOL OR USE RIDE-SHARING TO REDUCE THE CHANCES OF HEADACHE. OUR 2022 HAUNT HAD A LARGE CROWD, ALONGSIDE CHALLENGES FOR SOME DRIVERS AND WE ENCOURAGE PLANNING TO REDUCE ISSUES. WE DISCOURAGE INAPPROPRIATE PARKING, SUCH AS PARKING IN FRONT OF SOMEONE’S DRIVEWAY OR BLOCKING OTHER CARS. PLEASE PARK RESPECTFULLY.
WE ALSO WOULD LIKE TO INFORM YOU ABOUT WAIT TIMES. SOME YEARS, WE’VE HAD LONG LINES AND PEOPLE HAVE WAITED UPWARDS OF AN HOUR, SOME SAY THE HAUNT OF THAT YEAR IS WORTH WAITING FOR BUT WE UNDERSTAND THAT TIME IS VALUABLE. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO WAIT, PLEASE LOOK FOR INFORMATION ABOUT FAST-PASSES OR RESERVATIONS WHEN TICKET SALES ARE LIVE.
BEFORE VISITING THE HAUNT, PLEASE READ OUR TERMS AND CONDITIONS, THIS INCLUDES OUR WARNINGS, OUR CODE OF CONDUCT (RULES) AND DISCLAIMERS. ANYONE ENTERING THE PROPERTY AND/OR HAVE A TICKET WILL BE ASSUMED TO HAVE READ AND AGREED TO THEM, REGARDLESS IF THEY’RE AWARE OR NOT. FOLLOWING THE RULES IS IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE.
