REBEL YELL 2020 UPDATE Many of you have been asking what our plan is this year. With much regret, we do not believe it would be safe or responsible to do our usual walk through haunt this year.

The scene will be spread across the front yard and driveway and will feature our graveyard scene along with some of our best effects, animatronic props and (possibly) live actors.

11/10/11 Thanks for making our 10th season the best one yet! Yes, it was our 10th season although we have been at this for 12 years now. (There was no Rebel Yell in 2008 or 2010.) I realized while working on this year's haunt that kids who were 10 years old when we held the first Rebel Yell are 22 now. Crazy. It's been a great ride, and we are nowhere near the end! Photos and video from this year's haunt will be posted soon, and we are already planning for the 2012 Rebel Yell so stay tuned! |

9/15/10 Ahhhh, Fall. The Spirit Halloween Store billboards, cool weather and the new Disturbed album playing on my iTunes make me feel like I should be building scary things in the driveway. Unfortunately, Rebel Yell does not have a home this year so we will be on hiatus until the 2011 season. We are working hard securing a location for next year and hope to scare you all again soon. Check back for updates, and have a great Halloween! |

Huge thanks to Paul, Mike, Adana, Tom, Justin, Brian and the rest of the Rebel Yell Crew, as well to all of our fans, friends and neighbors who came out to see us this year. We look forward to scaring you all again next Halloween. |

9/2/06 We are hard at work on our new effects and renovations for the 7th annual Rebel Yell. And since this may be our last year at our home on Rebel Way (more on that later), we are going to make sure it is our best... haunt... EVER. In the meantime, we highly recommend checking out Callson Manor in San Jose and Pirates Of Emerson in Fremont. And for a list of other home and pro haunts in Northern California check out CalHaunts.com |

8/28/06 Lots of news. I haven't updated the site in a while so here goes: Todd has been working on some hands for Otis, the pop-up zombie in the cemetery. They have a steel skeleton with cotton and latex forming the skin. Very cool. Check them out. We have finished the box for the air compressor, painted the furniture for the new frozen bedroom and Ernie has been welding the frame for the new pop-up for the bed. Still a lot of projects to finish before we start to build the haunt in October but things are looking good. Our next build meeting is Saturday, September 9th. Following that we will meet every weekend in October. This year's haunt is going to be our best by far, don't miss it! |
||||||||||
3/19/06 We have completed our second planning meeting for the 06 Rebel Yell. Our accomplishments included naming our characters, starting construction of a sound proof box for the air compressor, and bronzing the Corpseapult. The Corpseapult was our first mechanical prop. Something I made out of screen door closers, hinged wood and a gate latch circa 1996. It has found it's way into almost every Rebel Yell since then, but is now officially retired. |
||||||||||
2/12/06 Happy new year! (OK a bit late, but this is my first post of 2006) Our first planning meeting for the 7th annual Rebel Yell took place yesterday. We will be adding some exciting new props and effects and remodeling the bedroom this year. We also have a talented comic artist working on a new logo for us. Stay tuned for more details! The photo page has been updated, and some new pics posted from 2005 - Click here! We also have a new draft of the Rebel Yell Story - Read it here. |

11/8/05 The 2005 Rebel Yell is all packed up. Attendance was down a bit from last year, probably due to the Monday night, but we collected about 30% more in donations. I think this indicates that more of our victims are coming specifically to see the haunt and bringing their wallets. Which is a good thing. Anyway we had a great time as always. We're already working on the 7th annual Rebel Yell for 2006. More info coming soon |
