An "actors" Perspective

[Kelly]

Okay, all you know it all critics. First of all I would like to say, I am an actor at Screampark. It is REALLY hard to get hyped up & into character when it seems that the majority of the people who I've witnessed go through this haunted house are either completely shitfaced & obnoxious or CHEDDARS, who think they are badass & decide since they know (or should know) the actors are NOT allowed to touch anyone, that this is the time to GET TOUGH with their "homeboys". I actually had a guy grab me in the face, AFTER I started to walk up to him to scare him & say that he thought I was fake!!! Then his fat little buddy behind him who was so scared that he was hanging onto his girlfriend said he was going to sock me if I didnt get away from him. Many other actors have been threatened also. FIRST OF ALL.......people......there is a rule, & its also common sense, we are not allowed to touch YOU & YOU are not supposed to touch US!! Number 2....if your so damn scared you feel the need to threaten or hit someone acting in a haunt, DONT FUCKING GO!!! This could actually be one of the reasons its really hard to find people who are willing to volunteer their time & effort this year & its people like you who ruin it for the ones who really appreciate a good scare.

"SPOILER" From now on there will be mace used in the haunt! HEE HEE HEE

Sounds to me that you don&#39;t know how to scare without getting touched, or how to spot a reaction before it comes, which means you have only acted 1 or 2 years.

Now this is a great post for the scream park owners....nothing like having an actor say it&#39;s hard to get into character. Nothing like having an actor who is prejudice (cheddars) I have seen all types of races get scared to the point of punching, causing trouble etc... but you didn&#39;t say whites, blackes, asians, etyc....you chose to use cheddars. And last but not least nothing like having an actor who is going to carry mase because they don&#39;t know how to scare correctly or cannot spot a problem group and stay a safe distance away.

I hope not all actors of scream park are representitive of you.

Actually I am sure they aren&#39;t but at least the worst of the bunch decided to post.

1. I obviously scared the shit out of people

3. Sounds like you are also one who SHOULDNT go

you can scare the shit out of someone and still not get touched if your experienced

2. The owners are VERY aware of this problem & know who the "troublemakers" are & Im not AFRAID to say it!!


So you are saying the owners call their hispanic/spanish/mexican customers "cheddars? You are also saying no other race has this problem as well?


3. Sounds like you are also one who SHOULDNT go

Again good post for the scream park owners, an actor telling a patron to stay away![/b]

Maybe you could come volunteer & show us your expertise OR you can continue to run YOUR haunted house & keep posting biased opinions because you cant handle the competition. Oh & yes. There are ALOT of Asians & Blacks living in Brighton??? Okay, I shouldnt have used the word "cheddar" I should have used the word Mexican which I would have also got a beating for. Imagine that.

Obviously you read very well because I have never posted a review or bashing of ANY haunt! Go back read my posts and when you find 1 where I posted a bash or review let me know.

And only mexicans go through your ahunt right? all the "whites" have been up standing citizens and have never been a problem either?

Hope to see you there!!!

Youre bashing my experience which you have absolutely no clue. People who have worked there for years are being charged, threatened, hit etc. etc. Has nothing to do with experience. And no, to be totally honest, Im mexican, & never had a "white" customer bother me yet.

the actors could very well be being charged/threatened/hit I agree, but any experienced actor knows and can see it coming and knows what to do to defuse the problem. But instead of learning from the situation you chose to threaten the public and be prejudice about the situation.

Also if they are being hit constantly then maybe the scare of the rooms needs to be looked at to ensure the safety of the actors.

And just because you are mexican that means you can use "cheddar"?

[soulkeeper]

LOL - This board is soooo much more entertaining than any soap opera. http://www.octoberlounge.com/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif

[JBOND007]

I have to be honest I thought the term "Cheddar" meant a white person. Cheddar Bob in Eight Mile was white right??


Anyways if people show up drunk, stoned, high, tripping out on any type of drugs they should not be allowed to buy tickets becasue then they jsut ruin it for EVERYONE

We were told to notify staff when these type of things occur. I did. They supposedly take care of it??? You also arent a good reader, I never threatened anyone...like I said it was a joke. If actors cant act when being threatened, what do we do to protect ourselves when we are in dark tiny rooms by ourselves & we are being threatened by groups of people. Also it is a free country & I have every right to use free speech just like you. What Haunted House do you work for??

isn&#39;t this like

Invesco going to a Broncos game and loving the stadium?

Pepsi going to an Avs game and liking the arena?

9news covering the walk for a cure and saying it was the best ever?



you seriously may want to rethink that post


Also, you never answered my question. What Haunt have you or do you work for, so I can attempt to hit one of your actors in the face & see just how its defused.

[hmmmmmm]

if you think that is a bash to the haunt you need to learn how to read. That was a reply to a post saying that 93.3 loved the house...Well duh!!!! a sponsor saying good things about a house...that&#39;s not a bash against the house, that&#39;s pointing out an obvious common sense statement from a sponsor.



And again more threats...you are 1 class act. And who said I even act anymore? I haven&#39;t for a couple of years but I did for a long time. So I have to be a current actor to post here?

How old are you?
Have you every been to a haunted house?

[Big Perm]

Do I really need to get involved here? Aw, who am I kidding?!

Kelly, I have absolutely no idea where you were heading with this one. You start by saying "to all of the know it all critics" and don&#39;t address them, at all. Instead you bust out the racial slurs and even admit to it being tough to get into character.

In truth, the whole issue I was really hoping to have resolved and my biggest complaint with Scream Park for the 2 previous years (not to mention the only reason I felt you didn&#39;t deserve a "10" last year) is the abundance of (apparently) under 16 actors that can&#39;t seem buy a scare and are too preoccupied with talking with their friends than actually giving a rats a$$ that people are spending money. This is by and large not the case with the whole of Scream Park, you have several actors that are great, but bearing that the bad aspects are always a hell of a lot more memorable than the good coming on here and making it even more notable really is hurting their chances for people like me to go in expecting anything positive.

I don&#39;t blame you for complaining, everyone up there has to be pretty defensive with the lambasting you&#39;ve been facing but like Wenzel, it&#39;s the way that you&#39;re going about it that&#39;s creating some pretty bad publicity (not like I&#39;m one to talk, it&#39;s the pot calling the kettle black here). I&#39;m not saying "don&#39;t post" either, I&#39;m encouraging it but maybe you&#39;d have a little better luck not offering to go punch people in the face at other attractions.

way older than you, I have worked in more haunted houses than you have probably walked through, and based off your first post you must work there as well to be backing what Kelly is saying.






PERM ITA WITH YOU!

[Kelly]

Why the hell would a radio station sponsor a haunt that they didnt like???? So what Haunted House did you used to work for & do they have acting lessons or something Brando?

What art of it can&#39;t you get?? They are not going to say on the air "Hey I discourage everyone from coming down here" They are there to try and promote a business and try to get people to come down whether they thiunk a place is good or bad.

[Kelly]

What part of that dont YOU get? 93.3 doesnt HAVE to sponsor ANYBODY!!! Why did they choose Screampark & not the Haunted House you used to work for?

You showed your brightness again. They are sponsoring it based off of the ratings from last year! Of course they would want to be affiliated with 1 of the top haunts from last year and who could blame them. The point being they sponsored based off of last year, so when their name is affiliated with it they do a live remote. When doing a live remote the point is to get thier listeners out to where they are at. They will not say if a haunt is bad or just decent, they will say a haunt is great to get people out there. A couple of years ago I went to Brutal Planet because uncle nasty did a live remote from there saying how great it was, well I went and it was not great.

But guess what...kbpi did thier job that they were meant to do with the remote....get people there!

If alice is doing a remote at say a grand opening of a cellular phone store, you don&#39;t expect them to say

"hey come on down to joe&#39;s phone shack where all phones plans are the same price as anywhere else"

they will say

"hey come on down to joes phone shack where we have the best deals on phones and pricing plans you will find"

this may not be true because most plans are the same but in order to get people to something they are lending their name to thats what they have to do.

This is where I was heading
Just like my post stated. DONT GO TO A HAUNTED HOUSE IF YOU CANT HANDLE BEING SCARED & DECIDE YOU NEED TO HIT THE ACTORS!!


OKAY, I&#39;ll just punch the people back who punch me when Im trying to do my job & have fun.

[Big Perm]

Okay, I&#39;m with you on that part but I still don&#39;t see what that has to do with all of the "know it all critics."

I understand they can sponsor that&#39;s not the point!

The point being that during a live remote they have to say it is great come on down....that&#39;s what they are there for.

No one is arguing that they can&#39;t sponsor who they want. And to say they are sponsoring based off of this years product is also false...they are sponsoring based off of last years product.

posted the 10th regarding the 93.3 live remote...THIS YEAR!


And I am not mentioning where I used to work because that doesn&#39;t matter.

[Big Perm]

I think that&#39;s a bit dodgy Grundlewhip; there doesn&#39;t need to be any jabs at Witch here, you two had it out and I don&#39;t really see it being fit to put it in here as well. Plus, along the lines of the other post, didn&#39;t you admit to working there prior or did I just misinterpret that?

[Grundlewhip]

No I have never worked at Scream Park ,and why is it dodgy to mention that she threatened me with hiring people to beat me up .I think it falls in line with the rest of the bad behavior I have witnessed ,here and at the park!

I am a real customer with real feelings about my favorite haunted house ,and I dont feel out of line with any of my posts, I will visit Frightmare next, Now if I dont like Frightmare as well as I did the last two years I have gone, Im gonna let people know why,and if its better I will definetly explain.

All of those comments were out of sarcasm, & you know it. Sorry if you got butthurt, but are you one of the guys who hit me in the face while I was working?? What would you do if it was you? Honestly. The guys are lucky I DIDNT defend myself & punch their lights out when it happened, but It was 4 of them & one of me...Im not that dumb I guess. I beg to differ on the fact that this is hurting Screampark. I think if anything & by judging the majority of the posts here, people are gonna come to Scraempark just to tear my head off!! I hope so. By the way Im not a kid, little boy. Im also not afraid to give people my real name like some people are as I have nothing to hide.

As a fellow haunt thespian (though my heart lies with puppetry, another form of acting), I have to say that my only goal was to be as entertaining as possible. I didn&#39;t mind one bit the fact that I spent my own money on Stein makeup and props of my own design. &#39;Fact is, I loved having the oppurtunity to express myself. I wanted to give the audience the same quality of theater that I would expect upon laying down my hard-earned sheckels. I wasn&#39;t there to intimidate or pose physical harm. I never broke character and I think that I put forth a fantastic performance with the material that I was afforded. It was 13th Door, so not much to work with...heh! whewwweeeeee...

Okay, all you know it all critics. First of all I would like to say, I am an actor at Screampark. It is REALLY hard to get hyped up & into character when it seems that the majority of the people who I&#39;ve witnessed go through this haunted house are either completely shitfaced & obnoxious or CHEDDARS,[/b]

I guess I am out of the loop. What in Blue Blazes is a "CHEDDAR"? Is it a racial slur ? In that case, I am blissfully unaware of its meaning. I love Cheddar cheese (especially when in conjunction with a Granny apple), so am I, unknowingly and unabashedly, a CHEDDAR? Enlighten me. please.

[Kelly]

LOL

Cheddar is a village in the district of Sedgemoor in Somerset, England, situated on the edge of the Mendip Hills 14.5 km (9 miles) northwest of Wells. It is famous for having given its name to Cheddar cheese which is one of the most popular kinds of cheese. Although the cheese is now made worldwide, only one producer remains in the village itself. Cheddar&#39;s other main produce is the strawberry, which gave name to the now disused Strawberry Line railway that ran from Yatton to Wells; in the 1960s, when the rest of the line was closed and all passenger services ceased, the section of the line between Cheddar and Yatton remained open for goods traffic, to provide a fast link with the main markets for the strawberries in Birmingham and London. The former station has become housing and a trading estate, and is the starting point for a cycle path along the old track to Axbridge, passing the Cheddar Reservoir, an SSSI for its large population of wintering waterfowl, and the home of a sailing club.

Cheddar is also famous for Cheddar Gorge, the largest gorge in England, and for the Cheddar Caves, where the remains of Cheddar Man were found. Nearby is Wookey Hole and Ebbor Gorge. At the junction of Church Street, Bath Street and Union Street stands a fine roofed medieval market cross, recently restored after being seriously damaged in a road traffic accident.

There are three schools, covering the primary, middle and secondary age groups, a Church of England church with a tall tower in the typical Somerset style, and also churches of the Roman Catholic, Methodist, Baptist and other groups. There is an indoor swimming pool and a refuse recycling centre. Cheddar village also has a Youth Hostel and several camping sites.

Cheddar is twinned with Felsberg in Germany and Vernouillet in France.


NOW I understand why people were so offended.

So, you ass, I am suppose to somehow believe that an inexplicable number of British haunt-goers are somehow globehopping to attend this attraction? Come on. Just admit that you were being a frakkin&#39; dungeon of mental incapacity. C&#39;mon, maybe it&#39;ll free you somehow...

Okay, all you know it all critics. First of all I would like to say, I am an actor at Screampark. It is REALLY hard to get hyped up & into character when it seems that the majority of the people who I&#39;ve witnessed go through this haunted house are either completely shitfaced & obnoxious or CHEDDARS, who think they are badass & decide since they know (or should know) the actors are NOT allowed to touch anyone, that this is the time to GET TOUGH with their "homeboys".[/b]

I was an actor at Frightmare last year and had the same problems. You have to learn to adapt and as you act more it gets better, by the end of the season I could diffuse most situations and stay in character. And believe me, I had people get in my face.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kelly @ Oct 11 2006, 01:28 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> (index.php?act=findpost&pid=1327)</div>
We were told to notify staff when these type of things occur. I did. They supposedly take care of it??? You also arent a good reader, I never threatened anyone...like I said it was a joke. If actors cant act when being threatened, what do we do to protect ourselves when we are in dark tiny rooms by ourselves & we are being threatened by groups of people.[/b]

First, do they have any police presence at Scream Park? Just having an off duty officer standing by the entrance can prevent things before they happen. Also, maybe the rooms need to be design, I always had an escape route incase of trouble.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kelly @ Oct 11 2006, 03:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> (index.php?act=findpost&pid=1349)</div>
What part of that dont YOU get? 93.3 doesnt HAVE to sponsor ANYBODY!!! Why did they choose Screampark & not the Haunted House you used to work for?[/b]

Probably because they decided to get 93.3 to sponsor them in return for something of value. I don&#39;t know what their deal is, but they both must have decided that something was in it for both of them. The real test will be next year to see if they are sponsors again...

[robokatt12]

I am unfamiliar with this 93.3. What kind of music do they play? I listen to my cds and not much else. I am trapped in a musical web of my own design, if you will. Are they hard rock or what? I guess I could bother to tune in, but how much fun would that be?

[AJota316]

okay this post is honestly getting a little bit out of hand. I myself work in a haunt and i have worked in one for 6 years now, and like most experienced actors (not saying your not Kelly) know how to difuse a situation. I have been punched, kicked, spit on, slapped, poked, and called every name in the book in more languages than I can remember; my point is that it comes with the territory. Sometimes its just someone&#39;s reaction, other times its because the person is doing it on purpose. Now the house that i work in has measures that protect the actors, they have cops that hang outside the house, when the season gets extremely busy and if something happens you break character and walk outside to the cop, then point out who did what to you and then it goes from there. What i mean is to me if an actor is doing their job and getting good scares then your going to push peoples comfort level to some degree, some take it too far and thats when a problem occurs.
Now about the drunks. I myself and a fellow memebr of a 12 step program. Back when i was drinking there was nothing more fun to do than get lit up and so get the crap scared out of me. It comes with the territory. If you work in a house then there are going to be large amounts of people that are under the infulence of something. Most that I have come across know how to control it, even though they reek of it, and others get out of hand. thats why the cops are there and thats why they make detox facilities. WE as actors need to understand that most of the haunts are crowded on the weekends and what do most people do on the weekends.....PARTY. If your of the normal variety then the weekend is the chance to relax take the weekend off, let loose.
Everyone is making good points on this post, even though its turned into a shouting match, but honestly what it comes to are that just some people of any race, color or creed are just plain assholes. Those are the kind that I hate and honestly I wish they wouldn&#39;t come through, but you know what whether they liked my house or not I am having fun doing what I love to do. I guarantee that 90% of the crows that come through any haunt are there to have fun and the others just waisted thir money. Oh well! I love this season and I don&#39;t let one prick ruin everything that I love and bust my butt for just because they decided to be stupid.
Honestly this site has extremely discouraged me in the past week. everything and everyone just keep bashing one another. i myself got involved doing it too, and i now realize that it was stupid. This season is short (1 month) why not make the best of it? Instead of going to every haunt and leaving saying "that sucked, it was horrible" why not find something good in every haunt. Maybe the actors were not up to par they way that you thought they should be say something like the actors could have done better but man the scenery every where was amazing. Pin point certain actors that you thought did a good job. Its honestly discouraging to come here and read new posts every day that say that every haunt sucks, or what a waste of money. I understand that everyone is open to their own opinion but c&#39;mon people see the big picture and see the good in things. like i said earlier maybe the actors could hav edone better so instead of saying they sucked say something that you thought could have been improved upon. I have been to haunts before and I could say one good thing about every haunt i have ever been to. the actors may have not been great, or maybe i didnt get scared, but there was something about each one that stayed in my mind. I know that the bitching will continue but I know me personally am going to disregard any and all foul comments, I am going to listen to the good, and the things that maybe I, as an actor, can improve on.
Lets just have fun this season.....

There was probably more, but what I took away from it is the rehashed argument that we shouldn&#39;t criticize haunts, just find something positive to say about each one. I have heard this one repeatedly over the years from a certain haunt owner.

I both agree and disagree as follows:

I hesitantly agree that there&#39;s probably something good, nice, and positive that could be said about every haunt. I&#39;m in discussion with the critics right now to possibly incorporate something like that into each review. In addition, each critic has already written Pros and Cons for each haunt as part of their reviews, which is something new for us.

I emphatically disagree that the comments should end there. The bottom line, as I&#39;ve said on numerous occasion, is that haunts are expensive and nobody wants to spend their money at a crappy one. Our job is to help with that. Incidentally, the haunts in Denver this year received overall scores as low as 4.5 and as high as 9.5.

Okay, so incredibly frankly, just where should I , this robotic Cat be best spending his haunt-dollar?

[WelchWitch]

Ok this blows...I had an awesome book to post and the site ate it and didnt post it. Crap. So let me just try to remember the highlights. It started off like OMG my head is spinning. I leave for 1 day to come back and find 3 pages that while trying to read through all of it, it became so blurry of the post and then quotes that I found myself speed reading through the balance and probably lost some points. Before I go any further I want to know who Kelly is. Send me a private message cause last night during my nightly post meeting with the crew, noone knows or is saying who you are. I will say if I ever catch one of my actors with mace, they will be banned, kicked out and have cops called on. In whatever order that happens. I also love chedder cheese my black little cat so I am lost on that part. Isnt there a football team that wears cheese on their heads?? It always makes me hungry when I see it, but at my age, I am always hungry. As far as safety issues and how we handle whatever, I do not know of any issues other then 2 that were minor and not meant to happen. We have had our "drunks or people who arent scared but get sacerd and cant handle it" but thats normal. I am very active along with other staff and and some of my seasoned actors keeping an eye out for problems and to date know nothing of this story. I cant fix it if I dont know its broken. So once again Kelly, you need to whisper in my ear, but not too long cause it may cause other issues for me, but tell me who you are. If not....then I can go into this further and discredit or credit some of the issues if I need too. I will say one more thing though, I find that just cause its posted here doesnt make it gospel. We tend to believe everything that is said here. Maybe I am a 6 foot man looking for a good time and not a 600 year old witch. But I have you all thinking I am a witch. Anyho, we have wasted 3 pages with farts in the wind and some legit topics to only be out of breath, with possible soiled pants and a headache for the old folks that cant read as well as they used too. I will leave on the this final note, my staff, my crew and MY CUSTOMERS are very important and their safety to me is one of my top concerns every night. Now lets see if I can post this, cause if not, I am not doing it a third time, you guys will just have to wonder why arent I talking.

OHHH BTW my black kitty, you wont be spending money in my haunt you will be one of my guests. The only money you will spend is if your hungry or thirsty, cause I am a cheap date.

Thanks for pointing that out Tye, I was going to post more or less the same thing. For all of you that think there is a Magical Sponsor Fairy out there coming to you granting sponsorships like they were candy, you are sadly mistaken. It probably took a lot of negotiations for Marc and WW to get 93.3 to sponsor them.

Who cares. Why is this still a subject. Who cares . I have never known so many people to care how or why we advertise what we advertise. If I wanted to say I have a large purple elephant in the house I will. God. You guys are crazy. If Marc busts his butt and gets high honors from here he would be a fool not to advertise it. Maybe some people think thats important. Take it however you want. We didnt go to 93.3 they came to us, but who cares. If high expatations are placed on us cause we were good last year, fine, but crap atleast allow whoever gets good reviews to whatever level to advertise it cause its important for them. NOONE can control what happens tomoorow. Dayum you guys know how to beet the horse so much that you have given him CPR and he is alive again. You guys put as much time into how scream park operates as Marc does if not more. Who cares. Maybe we will be destroyed by a flood and wont be here next year to work with 93.3 again.

Yes, I am new to this "acting" in a haunted house gig & even though I havent done this type of thing before doesnt mean Im incapable of doing my part of trying to help some, who I thought were really cool people, out with a fun thing, as Halloween is my favorite Holiday. I NEVER realized, how much competition & pointless banter of certain misinformed, ignorant a-holes of this industry could totally ruin it for people like me. Its really unfortunate.

For all you folks who dont know what a cheddar is, you either havent lived in Colorado very long, or youre just someone like ROBOTKAT who is trying to muster up some more drama on here intentionally. Get a life. My intention wasnt to offend all the alcoholics & Illegal Aliens who come here, but I did, & only you know who you are!!! Kim, I told you about my incident after the haunt was over, not right when it happened, because I looked for you RIGHT when it took place & you were not out front, or where I could see you as you claim you are. Going out front to wander around & look for you would have ALSO got me into trouble as that would be considered being out of character & I was told or actually YELLED at by staff that actors were NOT to be out front where the patrons can see us. The comment about mace was a joke just like when you were joking with Grundlewhip about how you were going to hire someone to beat him up.

But you refuse to take action upon the troublemakers & drunks who insist on making this haunt a "fart in the wind". Its quite obvious why you would choose your customers safety over a VOLUNTEERS.

I think that it is great that you guys have this sponsorship, as far as I have personally heard you are the only radio advertising I have heard. You guys have every right to promote your business any way you feel necessary, I did not make it up last year but was up the year before great and I am going to try to make it up on Saturday, tomorrow is unfortunately booked. Keep up the good work, I hope that you guys will be around for a long time.

Also, where&#39;d you find a purple elephant? I&#39;ve been in the market for one myself.

I&#39;ll preface by saying you both are right, she is entitled to what she wants to say (anyone here knows I&#39;ve said stuff that could&#39;ve gotten me into a lot of trouble and hasn&#39;t made the best of sense) but look at it from the "outside chance" point of view.

Say I&#39;m Mexican; I wander on here to check out what people have to say; I live in North Denver or Loveland or Brighton or Longmont; I see "Scream Park: an UNBIASED review" and I find this stuff; I get mad; I read on; I tell all my friends; we decide to get the word out about the prejudiced actors they have working there and never go there.

That is why I&#39;m saying if it were my business she wouldn&#39;t be working there anymore and that I would be begging to get these posts removed, I&#39;m not saying in any way, shape or form that this is what Scream Park will do or that this is what they should do, this is what I would do.

wow so you are new and inexperienced and my posts were spot on....imagine that!

[WelchWitch]

OHHH Now I know who you are. You worked 2 nights with me. How funny. Too funny. I sooo know what is going on now and who you are and the whole group issue. This is not even worth a response. There are soooo many issues to this that is part of this drama and it is so not worth the headache to feed into it. Your issue is very important and very true but the story behind it and where you were in the haunt was never mentioned correctly. So you have told half the story about why your not back at the house. If I had the chance to fix this for you I would have. But to come to me or any haunt staff at any haunt and tell them of a problem way after the fact and then get mad at them cause they didnt fix it is out of my control. We had radios everywhere and I was working and maybe not be sitting out of the exact spot you were at. When you told me, I would have loved to taken care of the punk that grabbed you while you were darkened out in a dark hallway and they couldnt see you and didnt know if you were real, but once we close and they leave the park what do you expect me to do? I could sayyyyy soooo much to this, but I will hush and just stop and say I am sorry you had a bad experience and good luck in finding a haunt that can do better for you and your family in making it more enjoyable. Wow..this is soooo wild. Wasnt expecting this one. hmmmmmmm if you only knew...only knew.

I will say one more thing there was no racism in her comment.

[anthonymaul]

My family rocked in your house,im sorry it turned out this way.

We will be missed.

[WelchWitch]

Yes Tony, I am sorry it turned out this way. I will miss your family, and your 3 kids. I hope your 5year old enjoys the shirt he won, working at the haunt much to my surprise. And your 2 daughters, how old were they 7 and 9 or something like that , I think I did a good job helping you find a spot for them in my haunt since you wanted me to help babysit them. Sorry that made you mad when I told you I couldnt anymore. Sorry that my staff got mad at you the numerous times you had to go to your car to check on the youngest ones when they fell asleep and you put them in your car and had to check on them. I am the only haunt I guess that wont let actors once in makeup be seen by the outside public. You can mace me later on that one. I thought I was kinda nice when I offered to have a spot in the back for your car so they could be closer. I am sorry that I didnt stand next to your wife longer and make sure that I took care of the guy who touched her face. But know I am ok, that spot has been replaced so dont miss it too much.

And your 2 daughters, how old were they 7 and 9 or something like that , I think I did a good job helping you find a spot for them in my haunt since you wanted me to help babysit them. Sorry that made you mad when I told you I couldnt anymore. Sorry that my staff got mad at you the numerous times you had to go to your car to check on the youngest ones when they fell asleep and you put them in your car and had to check on them. I am the only haunt I guess that wont let actors once in makeup be seen by the outside public. You can mace me later on that one. I thought I was kinda nice when I offered to have a spot in the back for your car so they could be closer. I am sorry that I didnt stand next to your wife longer and make sure that I took care of the guy who touched her face. But know I am ok, that spot has been replaced so dont miss it too much.[/b]

First off I never ask you to babysit???
I can take care off my family,just fine
and your staff never got mad at me
for checking on my kids.Your staff was
never around when I checked on them.
Im glad to hear you filled our spots,
cause you had alot of spots to fill.
I wont comment on the mace.Noone
told us we couldnt go up front,so Kelly
didnt think she was do anything wrong.

Sorry, did I misunderstand this one then?

Okay, I shouldnt have used the word "cheddar" I should have used the word Mexican which I would have also got a beating for.[/b]

As to the rest of this, I&#39;m lost.

Tony I am just saying sorry ...thats all nothing more nothing less. I am just as surprised by all this as everyone else.

As fascinating as this episode surely is, I&#39;m going to go ahead and close this topic.

I understand that if someone were a disgruntled ex-employee, they would want a place to vent about it, but that&#39;s really not the purpose of this board. That&#39;s something between you and the haunt owners/operators, and I would ask you to take that up with them via email.

I&#39;m not deleting anyone&#39;s posts, I&#39;m not banning anyone, I&#39;m not chastising anyone for anything that&#39;s been said. But I *am* closing the topic and asking that we move on to the various haunts&#39; merits as they relate to the general public.

I&#39;m concerned about the negativity growing to the point that people avoid the October Lounge because of the drama. Surely we can all figure out how to speak our minds like adults without spewing venom everywhere?

Thanks.
