Join the Haunt Crew
Have a passion for acting and a love for everything creepy? Hopkins is looking for the next generation of fear-inducers to bring the trail to life in Greenville County.
The Opportunity
Your nightmare job
Work alongside makeup artists, set designers and fellow performers on a cinematic horror production, and terrify thousands of visitors over the season.
The core roles are scare actors on the trail. Beyond acting, the production involves makeup, set design and guest relations, so if you are a creative person who wants hands-on experience in live performance and a supportive, safety-first team, this is a rare seasonal gig in Greenville County. Expect to build friendships, learn real skills and be part of a trusted local production.
