This week on Working the Fright Shift, I shine a spotlight on Jamie Weisgerber, the creative force behind Samhain’s Lot, one of Southern California’s most beloved and meticulously crafted home haunts. Jamie’s passion for Halloween, his cinematic eye for detail, and his ability to transform a neighborhood yard into a fully realized world have earned him admiration from fans, fellow haunters, and industry pros alike.

In this episode’s The Horror Blueprint, we explore the lighter side of fear — those playful, mischievous horrors that remind us Halloween can be just as fun as it is frightening. And in Echoes of the Past, we revisit a few iconic haunt experiences that shaped my own journey in Halloween entertainment.

Mind the pumpkins — they tend to lead you places inside The Fright Shift…
