You embody the spooky spirit of Halloween!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If hired, you will either work in a haunted house and portray a specific character\/figure from a movie or be an atmosphere character on the streets of Universal. There are a few other roles you can acquire at Halloween Horror Nights, but this is the basic idea. Actors for Halloween Horror Nights might carry a chainsaw, impersonate someone from Ghost Busters, or be a generally scary creature. Your main mission as a scare actor? Scare people, of course!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, this event is scary, but do you know what\u2019s even scarier? <strong>Auditioning. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve worked at Disney World as a full-time Performer and been to many theme park and cruise auditions. I know that these auditions are intimidating and can feel like a cattle call. There are hundreds of others who want this role as badly as you and it\u2019s hard to stand out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help ease the anxiety, I wanted to give you an idea as to what you can expect at a Universal Studios Scareactor audition. Most of the tips I\u2019m shelling out can be applied to general Universal and Disney auditions too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to hear about my recent experience attending the 2019 Scareactor audition at Universal Orlando, watch this video. I talk about the process from beginning to end and my audition results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, how to cope with rejection as an entertainer in the theme park industry. This is very important if you want to succeed in future auditions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C9XrsPmCv_c\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"content-box-pink\"><h3><strong>Helpful Resources for Your Audition<\/strong><\/h3><ul><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlandojobs.com\/auditions\/\">Universal Studios Orlando Audition Website<\/a><\/strong><\/li><li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Universal Studios Hollywood Casting Website (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.universalstudioshollywood.com\/auditions\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Universal Studios Hollywood Audition Website<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2ZjpnzG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Big Magic (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>Big Magic<\/strong><\/a> (For a little audition encouragement!)<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 Scareactor Audition FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do they have separate auditions for each Universal theme park?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, they have separate auditions for the Universal Studios in Hollywood and Orlando. To be considered for both, you must audition at both locations. To stay informed about auditions, visit the casting websites listed in the box above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When do they hold auditions for Halloween Horror Nights every year? <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2019 auditions started in June. They generally cast throughout the summer and end auditions towards the end of August. They do cast throughout the season, so if you get rejected at first they <em>may<\/em> call you later if they need more people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My advice is to attend one of the very first auditions of the season. As they add more audition dates, they fill up the roles. You have a better chance of being considered with more roles available at the beginning of summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How long does it take to hear back about the audition? <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The typical wait time is about two weeks, but this varies greatly. Some actors will get the casting email a few days after the audition and others will get the call way later into the season. While at the type out an audition, we were told the same night whether we were cast. Check forums like <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Inside Universal  (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/forums.insideuniversal.net\/threads\/becoming-a-hhn-scareactor.9371\/\" target=\"_blank\">Inside Universal<\/a> for discussions about the auditions.

Trick or Treat scare zone at Universal Studios Orlando.\" class=\"wp-image-6900\" width=\"633\" height=\"417\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two types of character auditions for Halloween Horror Nights, an animation audition and a type out. An animation or movement audition is typical for Universal Studios Hollywood. I suspect this is because the competition is tougher in California. The park is closer to Los Angeles, which means there are a ton of Actors desperate for work in the area. This shouldn\u2019t <em>scare<\/em> you though. If the Casting Directors like your look, ideas, or commitment to the character, you have a chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This process is much more involved than a type-out audition. They change up the audition every year, but essentially they ask you to act out certain situations and motivations. They may ask you to do an exercise like \u201cscare the chair\u201d where you do your best to scare an inanimate object. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a great example of the audition process on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3vBTVb6M8Mw\">YouTube here.<\/a> This audition is from many years ago, so it\u2019s a bit outdated, but it does give you a good idea as to what the audition may be like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tips for an Animated\/Movement Scareactor Audition<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#1 &#8211; Your Acting Should Be Larger-Than-Life<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For animation auditions at Universal and Disney, the bigger your character and movements, the better. As Actors, we\u2019re told not to over-act, but you can disregard your training for this audition.&nbsp;This isn\u2019t your typical audition where you want to be minimal and \u201creal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not saying tear down the curtains and pull off your clothes, but you can definitely over-animate. Try not to feel like an idiot and just go for it. They want your character and movements to be visibly apparent to guests. This means stepping out of your comfort zone and getting really into it. Get on the floor and pretend to eat someone\u2019s brains with full commitment and put your whole body into it. And don\u2019t be afraid to make noises! Make your presence be known! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#2 &#8211; Wear Clothes You Can Move In<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of this audition as more a \u201cdance\u201d audition rather than an \u201cacting\u201d audition. Even though there won\u2019t be any choreography, you want to feel comfortable enough to move a lot. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/31ZvwTp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Comfy yoga<\/a><\/strong> pants usually do the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Process of a Type Out Scareactor Audition<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-pin-description=\"How to Become a Scareactor at Universal Studios: Tips and Advice to Dominate Your Character Performer Audition!

This means they look at your age, height, weight, or facial structure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t have to have much acting experience for a type out audition. If you look like the character and you think being a scare actor would be a fun experience, then go for it. They want people who look as close to these characters as possible, so if that means hiring someone who isn\u2019t a trained actor, they might just do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The process is extremely simple. They put you into a group and take you into a room, line you up, and ask you a simple question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The question they asked us was \u201cWhat\u2019s your favorite Halloween movie?\u201d They will change the question each time, so don\u2019t try to rehearse this. Honestly, your answer doesn\u2019t really matter. They want to hear your voice and make sure you can take a simple direction. More than anything, they want to look at your face and body. Asking a question makes the process a little less awkward for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip for a Type Out Scareactor Audition<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>This Audition is Completely Out of Your Control. (A.K.A. Don\u2019t freak out!<\/strong>)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>They are looking for people who can portray a specific famous actor or characters that were featured in movies and television. If you don\u2019t look like Eleven from Stranger Things, that\u2019s totally ok. That\u2019s not something you can change and it means that you\u2019re uniquely you! If they think you have enough similarities to Millie Bobby Brown then you lucked out and that\u2019s cool too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 Tips to Dominate Your Character Performer Audition<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-pin-description=\"How to Become a Scareactor at Universal Studios: Tips and Advice to Dominate Your Character Performer Audition!

This is easier said than done.&nbsp; When we hear the phrase \u201cjust be yourself,\u201d we immediately start freaking out and have an existential crisis. \u201cWho am I?\u201d \u201cWhat do I want to show them?\u201d \u201cDo I look like an idiot?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s like we float out of our bodies and start dissecting our self-worth with a wooden spoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All I mean is that you should have fun. It\u2019s a silly audition where you pretend to be zombies and stuff. You should try to at least have fun while you do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you&#8217;re having fun then Casting Directors are having fun too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#2 &#8211; Do Your Research<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to have some characters and actions in mind before you go. Look up the haunted houses that were featured the previous year and watch a couple of movies they were based on. They often bring back popular houses the following year, so it\u2019s good to study up. This is a good way to ease your nerves because you&#8217;ll feel more prepared with ideas going into it too. And also a good way to get yourself excited about the audition!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#3 &#8211; Keep Auditioning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of people I met during auditions have already worked at Universal or are currently working there now. A lot of those same people went on to get cast in Halloween Horror Nights. This means that if you don\u2019t get cast this year, go next year!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You want the Casting Directors to recognize you and one way to do that is to audition. It doesn\u2019t hurt to audition for other events like Mardi Gras too. Your face will become more familiar to them, the more you show up. You may have a higher chance of getting hired for Halloween if you land a role for a different event too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Take-Away: What You Need to Remember When Auditioning for Disney, Universal, or Anywhere Else<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every year they add more haunted houses and need different types of people to fill those roles. Maybe next year they will have a character that fits your type. So keep trying and don\u2019t get bogged down if you get rejected. When auditioning, you\u2019ll be rejected about 95% of the time. The more you audition, the more chances you\u2019ll get at landing a role.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just remember that most of the time, the rejection is due to a circumstance completely out of your control. It has nothing to do with you as a person!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are enough, my friend. Your personality, face, body, and voice is totally your own and that\u2019s totally awesome. Don\u2019t let a little thing like an audition determine your self-worth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>P.S.
