Lights, Camera, Partnership
Last week, our team headed into the Malibu mountains for the opening of Nights of the Jack, a must-see light and sound Halloween experience. This year, we were more than just spectators. Our team at Hollywood Branded helped execute an amazing partnership between Govee and Nights of the Jack, enhancing the experience with cutting-edge lighting technology and smart lighting throughout a two-story haunted house.
The vibrant colors, dynamic patterns, and perfectly timed lighting effects created an immersive, eerie vibe. In this article, Hollywood Branded offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the partnership between Govee and Nights of the Jack transformed a haunted house into an immersive, visually stunning experience that captivated both visitors and celebrities.
Creating a Haunted House with Govee’s Smart Lighting
We worked with Govee to deck out a two-story fabricated haunted house with their smart lighting - think colorful curtain lights, outdoor displays, and holiday lights that create an immersive, eerie vibe. The result? A stunning light show that pulls visitors deeper into the spooky atmosphere, with vibrant colors, dynamic patterns, and perfectly timed lighting effects that have everyone snapping pics for social.
Govee’s products bring high-tech, customizable lighting solutions to homes. They sync with music, generate unique patterns, and even use AI for voice-controlled effects. Whether you’re going spooky or festive, these lights do it all—and seeing them in action will definitely inspire visitors to create their own unforgettable setups at home. The technology you can bring to up your holiday lighting game is AMAZING.
Celebs (Especially Parent Celebs) Join Too
We spotted Kaley Cuoco checking out the event, and there will be a host of other celebs joining with past years attendance including Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, Tori Spelling, Megan Fox, Brian Austin Green, and Lance Bass. You might also spot Vanessa Hudgens, John Stamos, or Aaron Paul soaking in the spooky vibes. From A-listers like Mindy Kaling and LeAnn Rimes to fan favorites like Adrienne Bailon and Chad Michael Murray, this Halloween activation in LA draws a glittering crowd every year!
This family-friendly event was the perfect match for Govee, whose new collection - including their Icicle Lights and String Lights - were on full display. And we didn’t stop at just the haunted house. We helped create a fully interactive experience, including a lit-up swing on the trail that’s become theInstagram spot for capturing the night.

Halloween is packed with opportunities for brands to make bold moves, connect with audiences, and have fun. From epic events like Nights of the Jack to tapping into pop culture trends and influencer magic, this is the season to stand out. At Hollywood Branded, we’ve got the expertise to make brands shine - whether you’re planning a spooky campaign or looking to partner with the hottest celebrities and influencers.
Here’s how we can help make this Halloween your brand’s most talked-about season:
1. Celebrity Partnerships: Make Your Brand the Talk of Halloween
Celebs don’t hold back on Halloween. Whether it’s viral costumes or star-studded parties, they know how to grab attention. So, why not have your brand right in the thick of it?
What You Can Do:
- Collaborate on a Halloween-Themed Product: Partner with a celeb to create a limited-edition collection that gets everyone buzzing.
- Sponsor a Star-Studded Party: Think over-the-top events like Heidi Klum’s annual Halloween bash or the Kardashian family’s extravaganza. It’s prime time to get your brand front and center with A-listers and their millions of followers.
How We Help:
- Celebrity Endorsements: We’ll match your brand with the perfect celebrity, ensuring your Halloween campaign hits all the right notes.
- Event Sponsorships: Our team knows how to place your brand into the biggest, most buzzworthy Halloween events, ensuring your product is the show's star.
2. Product Placement: Slide Your Brand Into Halloween Pop Culture
Halloween is the perfect backdrop for a brand cameo. Whether it’s a horror movie, a TV special, or a spooky series, product placement is a powerful way to connect with fans during this season.
What You Can Do:
- Get Your Product Into Halloween Movies or Shows: Whether it’s a subtle placement or something central to the storyline, product placement in spooky content gets your brand noticed by engaged audiences. Scary movies offer heightened brand affinity - the "teddy bear" effect, and the brain latches on to that, which is comforting and well-known. Here's an article I wrote that talks more about this. The psychology in play here hasn't changed in the last 10 years, and horror movies are more popular than ever.
How We Help:
- Product Placement in Movies, TV, and Music Videos: We’ve got the insider connections to secure your brand a spot in Halloween-themed content, from films to streaming series.
- Virtual Product Placement: On a tight deadline? We can even digitally place your product into pre-existing content with some Halloween magic.
3. Influencer Marketing: Scare Up Some Social Buzz
Halloween is influencer heaven. Between viral makeup tutorials, costume reveals, and spooky TikTok challenges, your brand has endless opportunities to make waves on social media.
What You Can Do:
- Launch an Influencer Campaign: Work with influencers on TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube to showcase your Halloween-themed products. Even if you haven’t had time to plan a full-blown Halloween campaign, it’s not too late to jump into the spooky spirit on social media. Partnering with influencers who are already creating Halloween content is a fast way to boost engagement. Look for influencers on platforms like TikTok and Instagram who are sharing Halloween costumes, makeup tutorials, and party prep ideas — they’re ready to include your product in their content! From product unboxings to “get ready with me” videos, influencer marketing is an incredible tool for brands during Halloween, especially when time is short. Plus, Halloween is all about creativity, so encourage influencers to think outside the box when showing off your product.
How We Help:
- Influencer Seeding: We’ll connect you with influencers who are ready to craft creative, engaging Halloween content that fits your brand’s vibe.
- Social Campaigns: From TikTok challenges to Instagram takeovers, we’ll help get your product into the Halloween social media buzz.
4. PR Magic: Make Headlines With Your Halloween Campaign
Halloween is a prime time to grab media attention. Whether through an exclusive product launch or a viral PR stunt, we’ll help you create moments that get people talking.
What You Can Do:
- Pull Off a PR Stunt: We’ll help you craft a buzzworthy moment, from a haunted pop-up to a celebrity-filled event.
- Launch a Limited-Edition Product or Branded Collab with Another Brand/IP Partner: Everyone loves seasonal products, and we’ll help make sure yours is the must-have item of the season.
How We Help:
- PR Campaigns: We’ll create a media strategy that ensures your Halloween campaign gets coverage across top outlets.
- Event Planning and Execution: From spooky press events to celebrity-driven media moments, we’ll make sure your activation gets the attention it deserves.
5. Event Sponsorship: Be at the Heart of Halloween
Halloween events are where the magic happens. Just like our partnership with Govee at Nights of the Jack, we can help your brand take center stage at high-profile events that draw celebs, influencers, and families.
What You Can Do:
