Dayton company offering 31 ways to freak out on Halloween

The Dayton-based company co-owned by South Park resident Chad Wyckoff is in the throes of its annual "31 Days of Halloween" promotion.

“We suggest a film every day in October. These films are usually on Hulu, Netflix or can be rented/purchased on iTunes," he told us via Facebook message. "We also do Halloween cocktails, party ideas on a budget, Halloween playlists and a few PDF game downloads."

The event builds up to Sixteen 37 Productions Haunted House party Halloween night, Saturday, Oct. 31.

The pilot of the company's web series, the comedy "We're Here Now,"   will be previewed at the party and then available online for a month.

The web series was filmed in and around Dayton.

Wyckoff stars in the web series as 30-something New York columnist and relationship adviser Chad Buchanan.

Buchanan takes a job in Dayton to escape his miserable life in the Big Apple after a relationship falls apart on the night he is set to propose.

His two friends, socialite Jen Buckely (actress Caley Rose of Los Angeles) and “NY’s most eligible nympho” Gavin Fairmount (Gavin Eastlack of New York), come to town to rescue him from what they assume must be a nervous breakdown.

Wyckoff said the exact location of the invitation-only party is under wraps.

He hinted it will be held at one of the 10 most haunted places featured in the Haunted Dayton photo gallery at MyDaytonDailyNews.com.

The 31 Days of Halloween promotion also includes a weekly contest with prizes like the Elvira, Mistress of the Dark T-shirt up for grabs this week.

"A quiz will post to our Facebook page every Saturday at 1 p.m." Wyckoff said. "The first 10 people who comment on the post with the correct answer will be put into a drawing, and the winner will be announced that same Saturday at 5 p.m.”

Videos of Wyckoff and local comedian Jessica Graue (both members of the Cox Ohio digital team) dishing on horror movies also will be posted on the Facebook page.
