One of the coolest parts of the Pride Parade was when the Fear Factory cast walked past. Feat Factory is a haunted house in Salt Lake City.
The Fear Factory haunted house is an old cement factory from the 1800s. There have been 11 confirmed deaths in the factory and probably so many more. Here is an excerpt from the Fear Factory website:
George Howe, charged with the maintenance of the coal crusher, was one such worker. One evening, George was alone in the factory oiling the crusher before shutting it down for the night. As he reached across to apply oil deep within the crusher, the machine grabbed his sleeve and began slowly pulling him into its gears. George’s arm was first removed from the socket, then snapped and ripped from his body. Unable to free himself, the man was slowly, but consciously, pulled into the crusher. The roaring machinery and the solid factory walls silenced his cries. George Howe’s entire body was eventually twisted into the gears before being spit out as nothing more than a torn and mutilated collection of bloody flesh. Other deaths include falling into boiling vats, additional grindings, death by suicide via the train, dismemberment, and many others.source
It is a pretty cool haunted house, and the fact that it is haunted for real makes it even spookier to walk through. The haunted house experience is pretty crazy as you wind through the tunnels, up the old stairs and basically all over the entire factory.
One thing that I love about the haunted houses here in Utah is that they really put a lot of work in their costumes. There are so many people that work at the haunted houses during the Halloween season and it is crazy to think of how much work goes into putting the makeup and prosthetics on them.
I hope that you enjoyed these photos and appreciate the talent that it took to create these spooky costumes. Thanks for stopping by and checking it out.
