The Dark Woods Haunted Attraction at Trombly gardens prides itself on a truly original cast of misfits, maniacs, and meanies; ALL conceived and developed by our talented cast members and event management.  Our carefully selected cast members must brainstorm their character's back story and plan for character interactions, including name, costume, makeup, props, and lines. 

All characters are approved by and developed with management. 

General guidelines for characters are:

1)  No clowns {No offense Bozo}
2)  No commercialized characters {Sorry Mike, Jason, and Pennywise}

3)  Character must fit with our show's theme - i.e. politely gross

4)  Keep it simple and keep it GOOD

The Ghoulie Awards are a unique way to recognize the best cast members each and every season!  Initial voting begins with guests' nominations.  Final voting is done by the nominees' peers.

"The Ghoulie" is awarded based on very strict criteria which must be met for candidates to be nominated.
