On October 30th 2015 I boarded a plane from Philadelphia, PA to Burbank, CA by myself for the first time. I traveled across the country to support my friends who were working on a brand new stage show. That stage show is Ghoulmaster's Haunted Playhouse. That's right the Ghoulmaster is back and better then ever with an all new show in Hollywood, CA.
I arrived at Bob Hope Airport around 5pm and the Ghoulmaster himself (Pete Carter) picked me up and we went straight to the theater for the 8pm show. This show blew my mind it was so good. I didn't have the words then to describe it because I was so tired from being awake for 24 plus hours and I still don't have the words. It was just outstanding on so many levels. These professional reviews do a fair job describing this show for me: Stage Raw, Theater Mania, Discover Hollywood, Broadway World, and Horror Buzz. There is a DVD out there where you can get a feel for the show, but it is nothing like experiencing it live.
My very talented friends: Pete, Chuck, Zack, Teddy, Lauren, Sam, and Brie worked on this show. As well as the rest of the cast who I have come to know and love. This show was the product of a dream coming true. If you work hard enough for something anything can happen. This show was funded by a Kickstarter campaign, and volunteers. This was very much a passion project that everyone involved felt strongly about.
While this run of the show has come to an end I have no doubt that this is not the end of the Ghoulmaster's journey. If I have learned one thing about Pete Carter it is that he doesn't give up and he finds ways to make his dreams come true.
