Actors Wanted for Halloween Fright Night at the Dark Hedges Estate

We're on the hunt for energetic, creative, and fearless performers to join our team for this year's Halloween Fright Night - an immersive scare experience set in the haunting grounds of the Dark Hedges Estate.

This is not your typical acting role. You'll be stepping into terrifying characters, bringing our zones and haunted scenes to life, and keeping audiences on edge from start to finish. If you love performance, thrive on atmosphere, and aren't afraid to make people scream - we want to hear from you!

What You'll Do:

Take on a variety of spooky roles, from sinister characters to eerie background figures. Fully immerse yourself in character to scare, surprise, and entertain our guests. Work closely with our creative team to bring scripted scenes and improvised interactions to life. Attend rehearsals and training sessions to develop your role and perfect scare techniques. Maintain energy, professionalism, and safety during all performances.
What We're Looking For:

Previous acting, performance, or improvisation experience is desirable - but not essential.

Confidence, enthusiasm, and the ability to engage with the public in character. Strong physicality and stamina - you'll be moving, performing, and staying in character for extended periods. A love of Halloween, horror, and creating unforgettable experiences.
Why Join Us?

Be part of one of Northern Ireland's most exciting seasonal events.

Perform in the iconic setting of the Dark Hedges Estate. Gain unique experience in immersive theatre and live entertainment. Work with a passionate, creative team to deliver an unforgettable show.
If you're ready to scream, scare, and perform like never before, we'd love to have you join our Fright Night cast.
