Position Overview

We are seeking individuals with a commanding voice, a flair for the drama, and a passion for storytelling to join our team as Haunted Narrators for our fall haunted attractions season. Each year during September and October, our cider mill transforms into a hub of thrilling, spine-chilling entertainment, hosting a variety of haunted experiences for guests of all ages. As a Haunted Narrator, you will set the tone for each attraction — drawing guests into the story, building suspense, and delivering unforgettable narrative performances across multiple haunted scenes and venues.

This is a temporary, seasonal position ideal for performers, storytellers, voice artists, and anyone who loves Halloween and the art of immersive theatrical entertainment.

• Deliver live narrative performances at designated scenes for the haunted hayride attraction

• Use voice, pacing, and dramatic storytelling to build suspense, atmosphere, and immersion

• Portray designated narrator characters using provided costumes and makeup

• Collaborate with Haunted Actors, scene directors, and production crew to ensure seamless attraction flow

• Attend mandatory pre-season orientation, training, and rehearsals

• Maintain vocal stamina and consistent performance throughout the full duration of each shift

• Adhere to all safety protocols and guidelines for both guests and fellow cast members

• Report to assigned locations on time and in full costume and makeup

• Communicate promptly with supervisors regarding any script, costume, makeup, or safety concerns

Education, Skills & Knowledge

• Must be 16 years of age or older

• Ability to commit to the full September–October season, including all Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings

• Strong verbal communication skills with a clear, expressive, and engaging voice

• Comfortable performing live in front of crowds in dark, loud, and atmospheric environments

• Ability to memorize and deliver scripted content while maintaining natural, compelling delivery

• Physically able to stand, walk between attraction locations, and perform for extended periods

• Reliable, punctual, and professional — attendance is critical to our team's success

• Comfortably wear full costumes and theatrical makeup

• A positive, team-player attitude and willingness to take direction

• Prior acting, theatre, voice performance, or public speaking experience is a plus, but not required

Working Conditions 

• Ability to work outdoors and in indoor haunted environments in varying weather conditions

• Ability to remain in character and on your feet for multiple hours per shift, moving between attraction locations

• Sufficient vocal endurance to project and perform across multiple scenes and rotations per evening

• Tolerance for strobe lights, fog machines, loud sound effects, and other special effects

• Comfort with close-proximity guest interaction in high-energy, fast-paced situations

Availability Requirements

Candidates must be available to work every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evening throughout the entire September and October season. Shifts will run from early evening through late-night hours. Specific shift times will be communicated prior to the season start. Attendance at mandatory pre-season training (typically held in late August or early September) is also required.
