[WOLF HOWLING] SEAN: ON THE 10TH NIGHT OF THE YEAR, THE GRANITE STATE GOES CRAZY FOR HALLOWEEN.
DOZENS OF HAUNTS AND STREAMS OF SCARE ADDICTS.
[SCREAMING] SEAN: BUT WHAT DO THE HUNDREDS OF HUNTERS THAT STAFF THE HAUNTED HOUSES DO WHEN THE SUN COMES UP?
>> I AM A HAIRSTYLIST.
>> I AM A BARISTA AT STARBUCKS.
>> I AM AN ENGINEERING TECH AT THE SHIP YARD.
>> I AM A GARMANGE.
>> I WORK AT AN INSURANCE COMPANY.
>> I AM AN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATOR.
>> I AM A LIFEGUARD AND SWIM INSTRUCTOR.
>> I AM IN HR AND FINANCE.

>> I WORK IN FINANCE.
[LAUGHTER] SEAN: AFTER SEEING THESE SEEMINGLY NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS PERFORMING AS TERRIFYING MONSTERS, AT HAUNTED OVERLOAD IN LEE, WE DECIDED TO FOLLOW A FEW
TO THEIR DAY JOBS TO DOCUMENT THE DOUBLE LIVES THEY LEAD EACH OCTOBER.
♪ THIS IS KYLE.
>> HI, TIM, GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
HERE WE ARE.
BEAUTIFUL HOUSE.
SEAN: REAL ESTATE AGENT BY DAY, BETH BY NIGHT.
>> OCTOBER IS NO SLEEP MONTH, SO BY DAY I AM SLINGING HOUSES SELLING REAL ESTATE, AND AT NIGHT I AM WORKING ON HAUNTING HOUSES, GETTING IN MAKEUP AND SCARING PEOPLE.
SEAN: KYLE HAS BEEN IN THE HAUNT GAME FOR 11 YEARS, BUT HIS LOVE FOR ALL THINGS HALLOWEEN STARTED AT A YOUNG AGE.
>> I USE TO SET UP A DISPLAY IN MY MOTHER’S FRONT YARD, NO ONE EVER CAME TO IT.
[LAUGHTER] I JUST HAD THIS FASCINATION FOR NOT UNDERSTANDING WHAT’S GOING ON OR HOW IT WORKS.
I LIKE BECOMING SOMEONE ELSE.
BECAUSE I HAVE TO BE NICE WHEN I AM SHOWING HOUSES AND SELLING THEM, I HAVE TO BE POSITIVE AND FRIENDLY AND OUTGOING AND WHEN I PUT MAKEUP ON, I CAN LET GO AN BE A JERK, REALLY, I LOVE IT.
THIS IS VERY DIFFERENT THAN SHOWING HOUSES, ALTHOUGH WE DO HAVE THE MANSION, I SHOULD DO AN EPISODE OF HOUSE HUNTERS, LET’S DO THAT.
I DEFINITELY DON’T BRING THE CHAINSAW TO SHOWINGS.
SEAN: TIM SULLIVAN RECENTLY BOUGHT A HOUSE FROM KYLE.
>> IT’S A GREAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
TONS OF TRICK-OR-TREATERS.
FAMILY-FRIENDLY.
ALL THE AMENITIES.
SEAN: BUT HE WASN’T AWARE OF HIS SPLIT PERSONALITIES.
>> WOW.
YEAH, I WOULDN’T WANT TO OPEN THE DOOR TO THAT.
>> SOME KNOW I DO THIS AND SOME DO NOT.
I GAVE SOME CLIENTS TICKETS A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND THEY WENT THROUGH THE HAUNTED HOUSE AND THEN NEVER SPOKE TO ME AGAIN.
SO NOW WE ARE MORE SECRETIVE ABOUT WHAT I DO.
♪ SEAN: IN SEABROOK, TIM SADOWSKI IS A FIXTURE IN THE COMMUNITY.
>> I OWN PET CITY HERE IN SEABROOK.
BEEN DOING IT CLOSE AT 38 YEARS.
♪ SEAN: HE MAKES HOUSE CALLS FOR TANK MAINTENANCE LOOKING LIKE THIS, AND IT ONLY TAKES HIM MOMENTS EACH WEEKEND TO TRANSFORM INTO THI
>> HE LOVES TO HARASS PEOPLE.
COME UP BEHIND LITTLE WHISPER IN , THE EAR, LICK ON THE CHEEK.
[LAUGHTER] SEAN: TOM CALLS HIMSELF A MONSTER KID.
HE OWNS HUNDREDS OF MASKS AND BECAME OBSESSED WITH THE SCARY OUT OF THIS WORLD CREATURES AS A CHILD.
>> I WOULD TAKE HALF OF A WIFFLEBALL AND MAKE GOGGLES.
I WOULD DO ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT THINGS.
SEAN: MOST OF HIS CUSTOMERS HAVE NO IDEA OF TOM’S DOUBLE LIFE, ALTHOUGH AS WE LEARNED, IF YOU HANG AROUND LONG ENOUGH, A FEW CLUES MAY TIP YOU OF >> ALL I HAVE TO DO IS HAVE HIM
ON THE FLOOR HERE AND PEOP WALK INTO THE ROOM, LOOKED DOWN AND SEE HIM, AND JUMP.
I’VE HAD WOMEN SCREAM.
SEAN: MIKE SURWASKI KNOWS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT TOM’S AFTER HOURS SPOOKING, BUT SAYS MOST THAT KNOW HIM WOULD FIND IT SHOCKING.
>> MILD-MANNERED, HELPING OUT THE COMMUNITY AND OTHER PEOPLE AND THEN HE GOES INTO HAUNTED OVERLOAD AND HE GOES WILD.
>> I LIKE TO CALL HAUNT ACTING INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT, AND BESIDES SCARING SOMEONE AND GETTING THE THRILL OF THAT, YOU CAN ALSO ENTERTAIN SOMEBODY AND SEE THEM REALLY ENJOYING
THEMSELVES AND GETTING A KICK OUT OF THE STUFF.
♪ SEAN: LOOKING TO WIND DOWN AND RELAX A BIT AFTER ALL THE SUSPENSE AND SCARES?
HEAD TO ELEMENTS MASSAGE IN SOMERSWORTH AND ASK FOR RAE.
♪ RAE THE MASSAGE THERAPIST BY DAY, NAHCRUSHA THE ZOMBIE PIRATE BY NIGHT.
>> THE THING I GET A KICK OUT OF FROM HERE TO THERE, IS HERE I AM A SERENE HEALER.
I WANT TO MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER AND EASE YOUR PAIN.
THERE, IF YOU’RE BEING A JERK IN LINE, I AM GOING TO MOCK YOU TO EVERYONE AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE DROWN IN A TSUNAMI OF SARCASM . THAT’S MY FAVORITE THING.
[LAUGHTER] SEAN: THE TOPIC OF HAUNTING AND ZOMBIES DOESN’T OFTEN COME UP WITH RAE’S QUIET CLIENTS, BUT EVEN THOSE WHO KNOW ABOUT HER MULTIPLE PERSONALITIES DON’T
ALWAYS KNOW JUST HOW FAR SHE’S WILLING TO TAKE IT >> OH MY GOSH.
[LAUGHTER] RAE, YOU LOOK AWESOME.
>> SHE’S ONE OF THE MOST CREATIVE PEOPLE I’VE EVER KNOWN, SO IT DOESN’T SURPRISE ME BUT SHE LOOKS AMAZING.
[LAUGHTER] ♪ >> IT IS VERY FREEING.
IT’S A LOT OF FUN TO JUST GO FROM BEING ME TO BEING THI CRAZY CREATURE WHO CAN JUST MESS WITH YOU AND SAY ANYTHING I WANT.
I HAVE STUPID JOKES AND FUNNY ACCENTS.
AND SAY IT’S ALL FUN AND GAMES UNTIL SOMEONE LOSES AN EYE.
FIND THE EYE, WOOHOO.
>> HAUNTED OVERLOAD HAS ALWAYS BEEN A PASSION FOR EVERYONE.
IT’S NOT LIKE WE HAVE A BUNCH OF HIRED THUGS BUT EVERYONE IS THERE BECAUSE THEY LOVE HALLOWEEN AND IT’S SUCH A GOOD ATMOSPHERE, SUCH A GOOD CREW THAT WE HAVE A GOOD TIME DOING
IT.
