About Us
Halloween Productions, Inc/Dark Rider/ Blacklight Attractions, started off operating haunted houses in the Saint Louis area over 15 years ago. HPI created sets and scenery so realistic that word spread throughout the nation that our attractions where second to none. Somehwhere down the road a few people asked if our company would build their amusement facility an attraction. These requests seemed odd at first, but eventually we agreed to help a water park build some haunted houses.Before we knew it we're building attractions for amusement parks nationwide including Cedar Point, Six Flags, Sea World, Busch Gardens, Kennywood, Cypress Gardens, and many more. Within a couple years of our first IAAPA show, HPI became the FIRST company in the NATION to create blacklight attractions as a service. At first we created blacklight 3D haunted houses, but that expanded into other types of attractions from funhouses, dark rides, indoor theming and mini golf. Additionally our company was the very first to offer blacklight services at the IAAPA tradeshow. Soon after we first displayed the potential of blacklight at the IAAPA show, other companies started offering blacklight dark rides, services and attractions for the amusement industry.
Little did we know when we first displayed blacklight theming at the IAAPA show would it catch on throughout the
amusement industry. Now blacklight theming has swept the amusement industry like nothing anyone has ever seen. Any type of theme, any type of environment, anything your imagination can dream up can be created in vibrant and brilliant colors with unmatched artistic talent by Blacklight Attractions.
amusement industry. Now blacklight theming has swept the amusement industry like nothing anyone has ever seen. Any type of theme, any type of environment, anything your imagination can dream up can be created in vibrant and brilliant colors with unmatched artistic talent by Blacklight Attractions. Today our company still owns and operates haunted houses in the Saint Louis area however we do not build many haunts for customers these days. Mostly we create blacklight attractions, dark rides, computer effects, sophisticated animation and yes BLACK LIGHT MINI GOLF. Blacklight mini-golf has been a new field for our company but a very exciting one that allows us to extend our artistic talents.
We invite you to visit our photo gallery and browse through a few blacklight projects we've completed or download videos on the download page. The bottom line is our creative is the BEST, but we leave that for you to decide. In addition we know the ins and outs of operating attractions, we know how to market attractions, sell sponsorships and more. If you're a small business owner we can help you reach all of your goals and give you an attraction that is SECOND to NO ONE!
