Allen, Curator of Native American Art and Repatriation Coordinator, and is accompanied by an exhibition catalogue.

The Fright Stuff has the right stuff at the New Jersey Film Festival!
Haunted houses are fun. Don’t listen to what that one family member says, this is an objective fact. A good haunted house is, for many, the highlight of the Halloween season. But have you even wondered what it takes to make the magic happen? Well, you’re in luck! Mike Meyer’s documentary, The Fright Stuff, gives you a peek behind the curtain; from the history of the industry, to interviews of successful companies, and even the construction of a haunted house. This film will shock you, creep you out, and weirdly enough, pull at your heartstrings.
