Tiara Quintana is an entertainment professional and creative force within the haunt industry. Originally from Los Angeles, California, she relocated to Reno, Nevada in April 2023 after spending several years as a Production Assistant at Universal Studios Hollywood, where she helped bring large-scale entertainment experiences to life. Her favorite event to work within the company was the legendary Halloween Horror Nights, where she assisted in managing haunted mazes, scare zones, and her absolute favorite stilt performers… fueling her lifelong passion for horror, immersive storytelling, and high-energy productions. Tiara continues to channel her experiences and knowledge into her work as Talent Director for Dark Prison Haunt in Carson City and as a professional “just a horror girl” eyeball curator for Vexa Fx Props, where her creativity and attention to detail help elevate the artistry in the industry. Since joining Dark Corner Creative in October 2024, she has found a home and community that deeply inspires her work, and ability to fulfill a dream she once thought she lost when leaving Los Angeles behind. She is grateful for the trust, and carries so much love for her team. Without Dark Corner, she would not have found Vexa FX, and without Vexa FX, she would not be able to fulfill the happiness she holds. A full-time student at Truckee Meadows Community College and on track to graduate late 2026, Tiara is known for her passion, kindness, relentless work ethic, and ability to juggle multiple creative roles. A self-proclaimed horror baddie with a love for Halloween, classic slashers, alternative rock, and pop punk, she brings heart, dedication, and unmistakable energy to every project she touches.
