Weapons Policy
Live weapons of any sort are not allowed. Which means no swords, no guns, no ammunition, no knives, no bladed weapons of any sort whether it is a throwing star or a scythe. No Airsoft weapons. NO PROP FIREARMS ALLOWED. No explosives, pyrotechnics, smoke or bubbles. If your prop or weapon is metal, please do not bring it. If you come with an obvious plastic or rubber prop please secure it to your persons to keep everyone safe at all times. SAFETY FIRST!
SC Horror reserve the right to inspect your props and determine if they are allowable. If your prop passes inspection, it will frequently be tagged with a zip tie or wrap of some sort. These ties need to be visible and secure on the prop so we suggest that you possibly plan your prop with a specific area you would like that tag attached and politely ask the staff if they can tag it there.
And remember to use common sense. If you have any doubt whether your prop will be admitted, then it might be best to leave it behind, or at least be prepared to walk back to your car.
