The Scarefactory, Inc., a three-dimensional design and fabrication studio that blends art and technology to produce extraordinary animated creatures and their scenic environs, was founded in 1993 by David and personnel from The Columbus College of Art and Design. A $22,000-capacity amphitheater worth $11 million was built at the Polaris Amphitheater in 1994 with the help of PromoWest as one of three partners. In fact, David was on-site for nearly the entire duration of the project's building phase. The Eagles, Janet Jackson, and Phil Collins were among the performers he produced during the show's initial season. David built his first theme park attraction in 1995 and now works with the Six Flags chain of amusement parks to maintain it. Attractions throughout the world could purchase characters and items from The Scarefactory's initial catalog in 1996. On July 17, 1997, David and his wife Alice became parents for the first time, welcoming their son Cameron into the world. Among the many events that David continues to create are stadium dates for the national tours of U2's Popmart Tour and The Rolling Stones' Bridges to Babylon Tour. SFX, Inc. purchased the Polaris Amphitheater in 1998 as concert business mergers intensified. In order to focus on The Scarefactory, Inc., David sells his shareholding in PromoWest, Inc. Scarefactory has grown steadily since its inception in 1998 and now serves more than 250 clients each year. The Walt Disney Company, Universal Studios, Paramount Studios, Ripley Entertainment, and Six Flags Parks & Resorts are some of our current clients in the entertainment industry. For the 12th Duke and his family at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland we built Edinburough Dungeons and Dragon Quest as part of our annual Playboy Mansion Halloween Party. Other notable projects in the United Kingdom include the Edinburough Dungeons and Dragon Quest in Dubai, Hong Kong, Macau, Australia, Russia, and Spain. Disney recruited David in 2006 to build 180 pirates for the reimagined "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride and retail presentations at Disney World, Disneyland, and the company's ships and flagship retail sites in the United States and Canada. The History Channel approached David in 2008 about creating and starring in the nine-episode series "Surviving History," which showcased his company's unusual design and fabrication abilities. More than 40 countries around the world were visited by the Company in 2014, as the company grew worldwide. When the company moved into 73,000 square-foot studios in 2017, they were better able to meet the growing demand for their products and services.
