This week on Working the Fright Shift, I sit down with Claire Dunlap, co‑creator of Midsummer Scream and Spooky Swap Meet, and one of the most influential producers shaping the modern Halloween fan experience. Claire has helped build some of the most beloved Halloween gatherings anywhere, blending community, artistry, and a deep love of Halloween into every project she touches.
In this episode’s The Horror Blueprint, we drift into something ghostly and lingering. And in Echoes of the Past, we revisit childhood frights that once lived under beds and now echo through the work I create in Halloween entertainment today.
Within the Fright Shift, memories linger and Halloween awakens.
