  • NEWS: Summerween Hits the Mainstream
    Jul 9 2025
    With the last major holiday celebration of summer out of the way (no one really decorates for Labor Day), retailers are now fully embracing the "Summerween" season, stocking Halloween-themed products earlier than ever before. As reported in last month's newsletters, stores like Michaels, Target, and Lowe's took advantage of Friday, June 13th, to begin to release their spooky items. Now, even more stores are pushing the Halloween season forward into summer.

  • Theme Park Trends That Can Transform Your Haunt
    May 20 2025
    Recently, I joined Tyler Barnett on the Fearworm Wormhole show to discuss how major theme park innovations could transform haunted attractions, and this is the full recording. We unpack Universal’s new Fan Fest Nights, Horror Unleashed, Dark Universe, and the rise of off-season activations like music festivals and “summer slasher” events. You’ll hear how IP partnerships, luxury-tier VIP add-ons, and even tariff pressures on materials can reshape your pricing and value proposition this fall—plus tactics for leveraging local brands when Hollywood licenses feel out of reach. Fearworm streams Wormhole episodes live every other Friday on Facebook. I wrote an article based on this as well, available here: https://hauntedattractionnetwork.com/theme-park-trends-that-can-transform-your-haunt-lessons-from-universals-fan-fest-nights-and-beyond/
