Factory of Fear Scare Actor Information Session
July 21, 2026 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
9419 Battle St, Manassas, VA 20110, USA
Something has escaped.
Deep within the ARTfactory, the secretive AF Laboratories has suffered a catastrophic containment breach, unleashing an unknown threat that has transformed the building into a sprawling, post-apocalyptic nightmare.
This year, all four floors of the ARTfactory become a fully immersive world unlike anything we’ve created before. Guests will navigate abandoned city streets, contaminated laboratories, crumbling industrial spaces, quarantine zones, and the remnants of civilization as they search for a way through the chaos. Every room tells part of the story, and every corner holds the possibility of a terrifying encounter.
If you’ve ever wanted to be part of something immersive, creative, and unforgettable, this is your chance to join the outbreak. Factory of Fear, one of Northern Virginia’s premier haunted attractions, is looking for scare actors to join our cast this Halloween season! As a scare actor, you’ll become one of the survivors, infected, scientists, soldiers, or creatures that bring this world to life. No previous acting or haunt experience is necessary—just enthusiasm, energy, and a willingness to make our guests scream.
If interested, please attend our upcoming Scare Actor Information Session on Tuesday, July 21 at 6:30 PM, at the ARTfactory, 9419 Battle Street, Manassas, VA.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid
July 24, 2026 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
1977 Eagle Way, Manassas, VA 20110, USA
Middle school, ugh. It’s the worst. But Greg Heffley is determined not to be at the bottom of the popularity chart. He’ll leave that to his weird neighbor, Fregley. Or maybe his best friend, Rowley Jefferson. But it’s not going to be Greg… no way.
Jeff Kinney’s popular character takes center stage as Greg’s cartoon diary becomes a hilarious and heartfelt musical. Will Greg’s plans to become popular lead him to sacrifice his one true friend? Can anyone avoid the dreaded Cheese Touch? Grab a hall pass and don’t be late for an adventure familiar to anyone who actually survived middle school.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing Global. (www.broadwaylicensing.com)
Shows on July 24th at 7PM and July 25th at 10AM and 2PM
