"I think this is the fifth year and it sells out every year before the doors open.
"It's pretty popular with the young people."
It was a great event for local youth because it was unique and such a big crew of young people invested their time and energy into it, he said.
Mr Solomon said there would be about 70 young people each night either performing or doing behind the scenes jobs.
They had started preparations in term two, doing tasks such as making the props, learning the different characters, learning how to scare people properly and how to do special effects make-up, he said.
The youth centre had been taking scary monsters and zombies to schools during lunch breaks every Friday, giving out free tickets.
They had visited all the high schools and would be starting on intermediates, Mr Solomon said.
He said there would be one show for ages 8 up and one for ages 12 up, which was a bit scarier because it was dark.
More youths are still needed to perform as scary characters and zombies.
