This role places performers in character-driven, live performance environments, working within an ensemble cast to deliver scripted and improvisational scares across themed sets throughout each event night. It suits performers with a background in stage acting, physical theater, or dance who are comfortable sustaining character work across high-volume, high-energy live entertainment runs.

About the Role

Actors at Psychopaths Haunted Experience work within a directed cast structure, performing recurring roles across a seasonal run at The West Oaks Mall near Ocoee, Florida. Each shift requires maintaining character continuity through repeated guest cycles, adapting timing and physical performance to audience response in real time.

Key Responsibilities

• Participate in rolling cast training sessions to learn blocking, zone boundaries, and safety protocols specific to each set environment.
• Coordinate physical performance with other cast members to maintain scene composition and pacing as guest groups move through the attraction.
• Performers in dance-specific roles execute choreographed movement sequences as part of the live entertainment programming layered into the experience.
• Communicate with production staff between cycles regarding set conditions, crowd behavior, or performance adjustments needed during the run.

What You Bring

• Background in stage acting, physical performance, character work, or dance at a professional or semi-professional level.
• Demonstrated ability to sustain live performance across multi-hour shifts without technical support or scripted audience interaction.
• Prior credits in theatrical production, live entertainment, theme park performance, or haunted attraction work are a strong asset.
• Flexible availability to work evenings and weekends across the Halloween season, with the ability to start immediately.
