Regan has also taken on some more eccentric projects such as working as a scare actress at Paramount Canada's Wonderland's, Fearfest: Haunted Theme Park in mazes which include Corn Stalkers, Blood Shed, Massacre Manner, Legends of the Lost, Slaughter Street and the Studio Lot. For this role, she would dress in a ghoulish costume, complete with full gore make up and improvise scare tactics for patrons of the park.
