Dear haunted house goers,

Please for the love of god listen to what I have to say. Because there are so many problems with what’s going on right now, and I have some suggestions. First of all, if you are going through a house and you start throwing hands at the workers, we will throw hands back. Do not expect to deck someone and get away with it because we really couldn't care less about your well being. If you drag someone else, prepare to get dragged yourself.

Second of all, please do not make inappropriate comments towards the workers. We are there to scare you, not to be your personal eye candy or to flirt with you. If you make these types of comments, we will escort you out of that section and tell you to leave. It doesn’t make us feel pretty, it makes us shrink. So please stop telling me your disgusting pig shit, like “I'll come in there with you if you know what I mean.” that is actually something I have been told while I was dressed like a DOLL, in a CRADLE with TOYS. Thats straight up pedophilia, there's nothing sexy about a messed up doll with a toy drum set and a box of nails in a baby cradle. The boy who said it then went through the house multiple time after that to harass me more after I told him to leave.

While I’m on this topic, it’s important to remember that you paid money to get tickets and go through a haunted house. We will scare you and harrass you. You are supposed to be uncomfortable during this experience. With that being said, if you come through the house and tell the workers not to scare you or touch you, we will 100% harass you the most in particular. It’s literally our job.

Finally, please do not drag someone through the house if they do not want to be there. That includes your kids. I don’t care if you wanna go through, get a babysitter. Stop doing this because when you guys come through and your kid is clinging to the wall, crying, screaming, having a panic attack, we don’t know whether we should stop or not, and will probably keep going. This will be detrimental to your child’s mental health, and should not happen. Therefore, if someone does not want to be there, do not make them come through.

In conclusion, if you are here to throw hands, flirt, make disgusting comments or advances, or are dragging someone who doesn't want to be here, DO NOT COME THROUGH THE HOUSE.

Sincerely,

Every single house actor
