Josh Overturf Bio:
Josh is a native of Southern California, growing up down the street from Knott’s Berry Farm. His family were big Halloween fans, and they would attend Knott’s Scary Farm every year. Josh started off by building elaborate home haunt walk-throughs when he was 13 years old and encouraged by his family, the mazes grew bigger each year and would have hundreds of attendees. By 17, Josh was designing sets and rooms for various local charity haunts, including a large Boy Scouts of America haunt in an old beer bottling facility. He has worked as an actor for Knott’s and Universal Studios. He has also worked for Disney on numerous non-Halloween events in both a talent and a technical role.
Josh began working full-time as the Operations Manager for Haunted Hotel Inc. based out of San Diego, in 2007 after 12 years of acting and tech work for them. He was responsible for the build and operation of three separate events each Halloween season. In 2014, Josh left the San Diego area to open ScareCo Haunted Attraction - his own event in Oakland, CA. The event was located in a 105-year-old train station and had about 47,000 sq. ft. of haunt space. Shortly after this first season, personnel from the USS Hornet Museum approached Josh with an idea to haunt the aircraft carrier. That event had such great success with the haunt to the point that the management of the museum was worried about how many people were showing up. The haunt was located entirely on the ship, utilizing the flight deck, hangar bay, sick bay and the f’ocsle just to name a few.
Josh has currently moved ScareCo to Louisiana in anticipation of opening a new event. He currently works as Mask Operations Manager, MOM for short, for CFX Masks (Composite Effects). He is responsible for general shop operations and new product development. This includes new mask designs and R&D of new materials and technologies. He is also at every tradeshow that CFX at
