Certified Haunted Attraction Operator Seminar Program

The International Association of Haunted Attractions (I.A.H.A), together with Mobile Midway Safety Institute (MMSI), is proud to offer the haunted attraction industry’s first and only voluntary national safety certification program. The Certified Haunted Attraction Operator Seminar program (C.H.A.O.S.) consists of eight hours of safety training provided by professional speakers with a background in amusement safety and loss control inspection. At the conclusion of the training program, attendees will have the opportunity to take a certification test. Upon successful completion of the training & test, attendees will be issued a certification certificate as a Certified Haunted Attraction Operator Seminar graduate (C.H.A.O.S.).

C.H.A.O.S. is an ongoing safety education program. Topics scheduled to be covered in this year’s seminars include*: Fire & Panic in Haunted Houses and Attractions, Code Compliance – Life Safety 101, the Operation and Inspection of Seasonal, Temporary and Permanent Haunted Houses and Outdoor Walkthroughs, Loss Control Issues for Haunted Attractions, Pneumatic Prop Maintenance and Safety, and Safety Training for Actors and Support Staff. Additional topics will be included in future installments of C.H.A.O.S.
