Finding Aberdeen Fear Factory
Nick Leviner found a cast meeting on Facebook and began his scare-acting journey at Aberdeen Fear Factory. He started in the clown room before developing his backwoods and chainsaw performances. His story follows the experience of finding a place in a haunt and growing into characters of his own.
Uncle Jessie and Uncle Kooter
Uncle Jessie and Uncle Kooter are two connected fictional characters performed by Nick. Their backstory includes a woodland cabin, a barbecue shack, and a rivalry between cousins. The shared story gives Nick two identities to explore within the same backwoods world.
Building the performance
In his Behind the Mask conversation, Nick talks about the characters and his work at Aberdeen Fear Factory. The interview offers a closer look at the performer behind the costume and how his roles developed beyond that first clown-room assignment.
