That frightful time of year is almost here, (Halloween, in case you need me to spell it out). I know haunted houses seem like they just happen but those ghouls don’t just wander in off the street. If you think you could scare the pants off Freddy Krueger you have to prove it. So if you’re feeling you could be the next Count Dracula or maybe just a little Twilight Saga in your future, you can show your stuff at the Callson Manor Casting Auditions on September 4, 2010, from 4:00PM to 8:00PM. Just show up at the Roseville Fairgrounds, 800 All American City Blvd., Roseville, CA (Parking Lot C…look for the trailers and fenced off area) and show them a haunting performance to earn your spot in the Callson Manor Haunted House.
