Tom
Schaeffer
Tom Schaeffer grew up in New Jersey. His love
of horror began at the age of nine with a subscription
to the amazing magazine Famous Monsters of Filmland.
His first introductions to Haunted Attractions
were the summer seasonal haunts of the Jersey
Shore such as Dracula’s Castle in Wildwood
and Brigantine Castle in Brigantine. This began
a long and still ongoing love affair. Tom spent
many years and countless hours on home haunts
as well as visiting a myriad of attractions. In
2005, Tom, his daughter Anna, and his sister Connie
Johnson launched The Scare Factor, a haunted attraction

Cell: 412-337-6916
Chris Handa has been trouble-shooting at special
and seasonal events since 1986. He is currently
Safety/Compliance Officer for Castle Blood in
Western PA and is a regular instructor for the
PA Amusement Safety Inspector Seminars. His experience
comes from keeping a cool head and finding unusual
but practical solutions for everything from day
camps to theatrical performances. He has been
able to fix set electrical problems with Bic pens
and locate a replacement gorilla suit with one
phone call.
When not solving problems, calming haunt owners,
or avoiding problems completely, Chris is also
a magician who uses his crowd interaction skills
to both entertain and be a functional part of
crowd control for any event. This has come in
very handy for onsite appearances sponsored by
companies such as Nickelodeon and The Walt Disney
Company and makes him an invaluable asset for
grand opening and special event teams.

Dave
Keppel
Dave Keppel is a writer, reader, music enthusiast
& movie buff who has called Pennsylvania home
since 1996. He is an avid collector of books with
an entire basement room dedicated to his extensive
library. Upon entering his subterranean domain,
one would first notice countless mini-posters
adorning the walls, featuring b-movies, pinup
art & pulp fiction cover art. There are swords
& other weaponry on display, alongside collections
of windup toys, Pez dispensers & miscellaneous
rubber monsters. If you drift from the pop culture
theme into the forementioned library, you might
catch a glimpse of Dave on his reading chair with
a book in his lap, a vinyl record spinning on
his Crosley player, and a cat perched by his head.
When not surrounded by his wife & kids, pets
& collections, Dave spends unfortunate amounts
of time managing the warehouse for a beauty supply
distributor. |
