One Night Only!
Awaken is not for the faint of heart! Mid-Michigan's scariest haunted attraction is doubling down on fright this year. Headed by creative designer Brian McVay, our creators have years of experience in the haunt and design world.
Through our progression of professional sets, you can expect amazing scenes, unexpected scares, movie-set quality props, twists and turns, cool attractions and more. Our highly skilled actors work within this framework to provide a terrifying, one-of-a-kind horror experience that is extremely serious and extremely scary. Haunt enthusiasts will love it!
Doug Tait “The Creature Man” and Wife Isabel Cueva Wow the Awaken Crowd!
Actor and director Douglas Tait who has played both Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers (and a ton of other great roles!) appeared @ Awaken last weekend to a packed crowd. His actor and director wife, Isabel Cueva, also joined in the fun bringing a ton of added excitement to our audience of horror fans!






Douglas Tait, hailing from Los Angeles, discovered his passion for acting and filmmaking during his grade school years, creating scary short films recorded on VHS tapes. Throughout his career, he has had the privilege of collaborating with some of the industry's top directors in both film and television.
Tait and Cueva are excited about their upcoming film "Angel Baby” coming out this October, and look forward to directing future projects. The Awaken crowd was able to get a first look at the trailer for this upcoming supernatural, psychological thriller and discuss the making of this film with the creators. We can’t wait for the film to come out later this year, so be sure to check it out.
Thanks again to Doug and Isabel for appearing at Awaken. We’re super-excited for Angel Baby and look forward to talking about it’s success when you return to Awaken in the future.
