Let the Scares Begin!
Friday Night opens with Behind the Screams.
We’ve hosted this unique look behind the Awaken curtain a handful of times throughout the years, and it’s back again for 2022.
“Behind the Screams” is an intimate, one-of-a kind walk-through of some of the most interesting sections of Awaken with the owners and creative staff. It’s fantastic for haunted attraction fans, prop enthusiasts and horror movie buffs of all kinds. See and discuss how various scenes are created, the thought process that goes into our room and set themes and the various items that are found throughout the haunt.

Horror Movie/Series Happenings
Some great looking horror movies with some big names are coming out here at the end of September. Just in time for the Halloween season!
Don’t Worry Darling, September 23rd
Olivia Wilde directs this promising psychological thriller/horror movie. Set in a 1950’s experimental community that houses men and their families working for a top-secret government program, this period piece centers around the young happy couple, Jack and Alice. Everything seems tranquil until cracks begin to surface, and this utopian society begins to crumble. What mystery lies behind this utopian facade?
Starring Harry Styles as Jack and Florence Pugh as Alice and an amazing surrounding cast, this film looks extremely intriguing. Read more.
Smile, September 30th
Love the creepy premise for this one. Why is everyone smiling?
After a patient visits Dr. Rose Cotter with tragic results, Rose begins experiencing strange events everywhere she goes. Unexplained, eerie smiles greet her in the people she interacts with, and her life begins to unravel. To save herself, she is forced to confront a past filled with trouble. Will she make it? Read more.
Devil’s Workshop, September 30th
Struggling actor Clayton is desperate to land a role as a demonologist. But, what exactly is a demonologist and how does he play one? Unsure how to play the part, Clayton contacts Eliza, an expert in demonology, and decides to spend the weekend in her home. Bad idea, we’re guessing. What they unearth together will horrify you. Read More.
