P AGE 24 Jesus Figueroa Writer The Great Horror Campout returns strong with camp out locations all over the west coast and all the way to Texas. The camp out is not for the faint of heart. It emerges campers into a slasher film camp out type experience with gruesome creatures walking around terrorizing camp goers. Camp goers are set on a scavenger hunt around Griffith Park’s old zoo to find items in some of the most unexpected places and while being hunted down by monsters. “People want engagement and complete immersion in their experiences...and Great Horror Campout is the definition of that. The night is packed with layer upon layer of active content. The days of spectator sport haunted attractions and events are over and we couldn’t be more excited about that,” Ten Thirty One Productions Founder Melissa Carbone said. Campers can decide how extreme of an experience they get by their choice of activities lasting 12 hours (8pm to 8am). In the “Chicken Zone,” campers may watch horror movies and roast marshmallows, while those seeking “High Startle” zones will want to warm up around the Bonfire or wander off to the Mess Hall. 2014 Tour Schedule: 6/6 & 6/7: Los Angeles, CA 6/20 & 6/21: Houston, TX 6/27 & 6/28: Austin, TX 7/11 & 7/12: San Francisco, CA 7/18 & 7/19: Sacramento, CA 7/25 & 7/26: Seattle, WA 8/1 & 8/2: Portland, OR 8/15 & 8/16: San Diego, CA 8/22 & 8/23: San Bernardino, CA For more information, please visit www.greathorrorcampout.com
