Haunted Attractions & the Art of Fear – A Conversation with the Haunted Attraction Network

Haunted houses aren’t just about the scares—they’re about the stories, the setting, and the experience. In this episode of the Shivers Podcast, I sit down with Philip from the Haunted Attraction Network to dive deep into the world of haunts.

We explore haunted attractions around the world, breaking down what makes them terrifying, immersive, and unforgettable. We also talk about the importance of location and storytelling in crafting a successful haunt—because a great scare isn’t just about jump scares, it’s about building a world that pulls you in and won’t let you go.

Plus, we discuss the fascinating divide between horror fans and those who just love spooky season. Are haunt lovers more like board game strategists, thinking five steps ahead, planning their route, and analyzing the design? Or do they just want a night of fun and frights?

If you’ve ever dreamed of building a haunt, wondered what makes an attraction truly terrifying, or just love talking about horror and immersive experiences, this episode is for you.
