Answer 1

At HollowSream at Busch Gardens, they had a maniac room where the inmates had escaped from the asylum....

Go around blubbering, drooling, anything - and every once in a while, try to "grab" a guest.......have someone be a Doctor and "get the patients back in line", waving and screaming at the guests to get away for their own lives' sake...

Answer 2

Look for a small newly-dead animal (kittens and piglets are best), clean up its external appearance. Buy a big bottle where the animal can fit. Place the animal upside down inside the bottle and fill up the remaining space with formalin or methanol. Seal the lid tightly and turn bottle over so you can display the animal from more sides. You can get a platform to put it on, and shine a light to attract attention. Wear a "mad doctor" costume for effect.

If you have enough time and aren't scared of all those dead animals, you can set up a few bottles of dead animals and line them up for your 'exhibit'.

Methanol might not preserve the animals long enough, but 7% formalin in 93% water should be enough to preserve even if your project lasts a year.

Answer 3

Drape some black sheets from the ceiling to make it appear as a wall. As the participants walk in, come through an opening with chainsaw with no chain on it. The motor will still roar and scare the crap out of them. Then chase them out of the room or either through the room, slowly of course.

Answer 4

Dress to match your surrounds and jump out at people as they come in. Otherwise, dress up so you like like a dummy or prop, then "come to life" as people pass by. If you scream, they'll scream too!
