About Me


About Frank Petruccelli:
Frank Petruccelli is a composer who lives in the Greater Boston Area of Massachusetts. He has been one of the leading “de”-composers for fans of Halloween, Gothic / Horror & The Haunted Attraction & Theme Park Industry for over eight years. His cinematic soundscapes can be heard around the U.S & parts of Canada.
Frank taught himself how to read music since the age of 12 & became interested in cinematic scores from a wide range of composers.
He has been involved in both community and professional theater & has worked with the Haunted Attraction Industry as an actor, performance coach, assistant manager, builder & de-composer. He has worked at Universal Studios in Orlando FL with The Hollywood Horror Make-Up Show & the Alfred Hitchcock Presents Show.
These experiences helped Frank realize the important role music & sound play in all areas of Multi-Media. No matter whether it’s a Film, TV Show, Commercial, Theme Park Attraction, or Video game the visual element is only half of what makes it effective & memorable. The other half is music & sound.
He attended Berklee College Of Music for Film Scoring & Music Synth and is a member of BMI.
Frank combines his love for music & sound with his admiration, respect, and enthusiasm for Visual Media of all types. He creates music with a cinematic approach to enhance the visual elements of ideas & affect the listener on many different levels.
