ARCHDALE, NC – Over the years, Kersey Valley Spookywoods, located in Archdale, has opened their “spooky” sets to local area artists for the filming of music videos and movies. As their reputation has grown nationally, so have the requests, which are now being received from studios as far away as the west coast.
The most recent is a music video completed at Spookywoods entitled “Sleeping Dogs” by Zakk Wylde. Wylde, who was recognized at the Hollywood Rock Walk of Fame in 2006, is known for his stints in Stone Henge, Zyris, and famously as lead guitarist and co-writer for Ozzy Osbourne. He is also widely recognized for his custom Les Paul guitar, which has become known as "The Grail," and features a bullseye.
Wylde’s “Sleeping Dogs” video was released by Vevo to YouTube on February 25th, and has already received nearly 200,000 views. All the actors in the video work for Spookywoods, and appeared as extras. The video can be seen online at http://bit.ly/22LBZ2C. This is the second video Wylde has filmed at Spookywoods.
In addition to Spookywoods, voted the number one scream park in America by HauntWorld Magazine, Kersey Valley also includes Kersey Valley High Ropes Course, an acrobatic workout that you’ll never forget; Kersey Valley Zipline, one of the largest zip lines in the world; Kersey Valley Escape, where you are locked in a room with no way out until one of you can solve the puzzles to find the key; Maize Adventure, North Carolina’s most famous corn maze; and Kersey Valley Laser Tag, a great “paint-free” way for hours of fun for kids and adults of all ages.
