Weekend details

If you’re a fan of all things spooky, the annual Fear Factory Workshop is an opportunity you won’t want to miss! This convention, dedicated strictly to haunted attractions, is an opportunity to learn from experts in the industry and gain some hands-on experience. You’ll find plenty of other talented haunters as well, such as scare actors, set designers, and makeup artists, among many other spooky creators. Everyone here has the same goal: to create a truly terrifying haunted attraction. But when someone turns up dead, everyone’s worst fears are realized–the scares have become all too real.


Trapped with no means of escape and a possible killer on the loose, you must race against time to identify the culprit before you become the next victim. It’s up to you to piece together the evidence and unravel a web of secrets and deceit. Is the murderer one of you, or is there someone else lurking in the shadows?


Will you be able to solve the mystery before it’s too late? Or will you fall victim to the killer’s clutches? With hilarity, scares, and surprises around every corner, this is one event that will keep you guessing until the very end. So join us for a fun-filled weekend–if you dare.

The weekend will be broken up into rounds and you will have plenty of downtime to enjoy the amenities Lakewood Lodge has to offer. Think fresh snow, warm fire, and hot cocoa! You will receive email updates that detail everything to expect as well as coordinating character assignments. It’s up to you to solve this heinous crime before it’s too late!

FRIDAY

Evening
Check-in at the Lodge and dive into your welcome basket full of goodies that will help you navigate the weekend. After exploring your base camp a bit, head over to the lodge for the first round of gameplay. You may be nervous to meet these new people but we promise you’ll become fast friends over drinks and conversation. You’ll learn all the tips and techniques for creating a terrifying spook show while you’re at it. Retire to your cabin for the night and enjoy some quiet time around the fire. If you hear any strange noises, don’t fret. That’s just the elaborate haunt we’re putting together.

SATURDAY

Morning/Afternoon
Wake up and enjoy your morning and afternoon with your cabin mates. This is your time to do as you please and take advantage of some of the resort amenities. Play yard games, sit by the fire, or hunt for clues (this is a murder mystery after all). If you notice sketchy things going on around you, remember we’re creating a masterpiece here. It’s supposed to be spooky.
Early evening
You and your team can head back to the lodge to meet up with all the other guests for the second round of gameplay. It’s time to piece together everything we’ve learned and put on a performance…to die for.

Sunday

Morning
After a wild and scary weekend, we’ll all meet up at the lodge for the last time to turn in evidence and discover who the guilty party is
