Last winter, we had the pleasure of spending an entire day inside an off-season haunted house, which also happens to be a real abandoned schoolhouse that’s allegedly haunted. We were shooting with our good friend and noted Horror Photographer, Joshua Hoffine on an ambitious photo of an entire horde of zombies attacking an all American family. He flew in J. Anthony Kosar (Winner of Season 4 of SciFi’s FACE/OFF) to physically turn 12 volunteers into hyper-realistic zombies, and brought in actor A. Michael Baldwin (from the movie Phantasm) to blow one of them away. We had a blast shooting the entire process, and one of us even got wrangled into becoming a zombie. It was terribly cold and the zombies were severely underdressed. It was also terrifying walking through the place by yourself.
To see more from the mind of Josh, visit his website at JoshuaHoffine.com. But be warned, his site isn’t for the queasy, or for those who fear ghosts, Bruce Willis, Bruce Willis as a ghost or sheer unrelenting terror.
And while we were at it, why not make a Harlem Shake video?
