The Experiential Supply Co. today announced the return of their groundbreaking, one-of-a-kind Halloween experience: Haunt O’ Ween LA. The fully immersive spooktacular event will take place September 30th-October 31st, 2022, at 6100 Topanga Canyon Blvd. in Woodland Hills, California. Hundreds of thousands of guests are expected to enjoy over 200,000 square feet of the most over-the-top, spooky fun, and authentic Halloween environments in the country. The state-of-the-art event also expands nationally this season with a new experience in Holmdel, New Jersey.
All Hallows Eve has always been communal by its very nature and origin – bringing people together for the shared escapade of turning fear into fun. Though the past two years have put a wrinkle in that, Haunt O’ Ween’s epic concept is one of the first in the country to put the entire holiday on display in one place – in one very vast and unique format.
Comprised of nine distinct and wholly immersive worlds, Haunt O’ Ween lets guests adventure through the massive grounds with thousands of photo ops, over 25 live character performers that they can engage and interact with, face painting, rides, games, trick-or-treating, dancing, and more. Additionally, there is no time limit, so guests are welcome to stay for hours and enjoy all the ghoulish mayhem.
New attractions for 2022 include Dance Domes in Beyond The Grave Rave, more rides, games, and even more candy. The organizers have spent almost $1,000,000 on candy this year to trick and treat the attendees. Live music, stunt performances, and pumpkin carving will also thrill guests this year.
“We’ve worked very hard this year to put on the country’s largest and most magical Halloween experience for all ages. Over 200,000 square feet of immersive thematics flooded with interactivity, all built on the foundation of Halloween – trick-or-treating, pumpkins, costumes, and spooky fun,” said Jasen Smith, Experiential Supply Founder & Chief Experience Officer. “We cannot wait to welcome thousands of families in the Southern Cal and New Jersey area this year to our massive creation. Make sure to bring your sweet tooth this year!”
Experiential Supply was born in the entertainment industry, creating large-scale experiences for Hollywood film studios. From themed interactive screenings to multimillion-dollar micro theme parks to promote theatrical releases, the events were always free to attend and promotional. Once the pandemic hit, the company began creating its own experiences – Haunt O’ Ween LA was born in October 2020. The original experience was designed as a drive-thru to ensure kids could still trick or treat. Cars would drive from house to house (built by the company), and candy was literally dumped into their vehicles. Similarly, crafted events are their Christmas Wonderland and Sugar Rush – a candy-inspired Wonka-like world.
In 2021, Haunt O’ Ween LA transformed into an in-person format, focusing on the engaging nature of Halloween and immersing guests in a myriad of activities. Over 100,000 attendees received over 3,000,000 pieces of candy.
“This is about families having a safe and incredibly fun place to enjoy the holiday and there’s just nothing like it.” adds Smith.
Plenty of food and beverages will be available so families can enjoy a full night out. Past sponsorships include FX – What We Do in The Shadows, Warner Bros. Pictures The Witches, KiwiCo, Happy Dad Hard Seltzer, Malibu Wines, and The Addams Family 2.
Tickets start at $40 and can be purchased through Fever.
