  • Ghost Show OperatorS Manual by Robert A. Nelson

The hard-to-find final book of Nelson's ghost show trilogy - now available once again and better than ever.

In this ebook, Nelson sets out the details for designing and framing of the ghost show, securing bookings for the act, the setup and tear-down, and finally, tips and suggestions for the operation of your very own spook show. Previously available only as part of the "Ghost Show Package" direct from Nelson. Now, many years later, this must-have reference is once again available in this revised and update edition, including additional Nelson content not found in the original manuscript:

  • Nelson's "Instructions to Managers" handout that provides much-needed information for the theater manager to ensure a successful show
  • Reproduction of Nelson's one-page herald that was given to theater patrons the week before the show
  • Nelson's sample Press Release that helped ensure free newspaper coverage for the event
  • Nelson's booking contract template (that was also sold separately in the Nelson catalog)
Partial list of contents:
  • PART ONE - Business Concepts
  • PART TWO - Assembling a Successful Show
    • Essential Factors in Framing the Show
    • Mechanics of the Show
    • The Blackout
  • PART THREE - Bookings
