Built for haunted attractions

Your entire operating night, wired into one living system.

HauntControl connects auditions, onboarding, calendars, staffing, room assignments, ticket sales, virtual queues, live displays, messaging, and end-of-night reporting. Change the right record once, and the rest of the night knows what happened.

What’s new

The newest tools keep the front gate moving, even when the internet vanishes into the fog.

The latest HauntCoreOps release adds a hybrid Emergency Offline Mode while continuing the broader 2026 rebuild of staffing, onboarding, navigation, and mobile operations.

Emergency continuity

The Till now keeps working offline.

Registers cache the Till shell, settings, discounts, catalog, and product images. Cash sales, card handoffs, and new Virtual Queue signups can be held safely and synchronized after connectivity returns.

  • Local, duplicate-resistant sale records
  • Standalone Square offline card handoff
  • Offline Center for sync and reconciliation

Complete employee onboarding

Auditions, contact preferences, forms, requirements, availability, photos, room preferences, and communication now live in one guided path.

Named multi-terminal sales

Each physical Square Terminal can have a matching common name, which makes busy-night routing and offline reconciliation clearer.

Midway sales and mobile refinements

Sell tokens, food, tickets, and merchandise while responsive layouts preserve more product space on desktop and mobile screens.

Connected by design

HauntControl does not collect isolated little islands of data.

It builds operational chains. One decision upstream becomes useful context everywhere downstream, without another clipboard, duplicated spreadsheet, or emergency group text.
