"Full Contact Haunted Attractions"
Good or bad?
A full contact haunt? Impossible! But, yet not that impossible after all. Actually many haunted attractions are finding ways to take things up just a notch each year! Eventually you begin to run out of ideas and what is the last idea that comes to one's mind? "The Full Contact Haunt."
We have actually been to some haunts within the last couple of years in which we have been touched, pulled, pushed, etc. So, is this just a phase that many are going through or is this the new thing? Will it last or will this be the last thing that attractions are allowed to do?
Many skeptics say that there are legal issues involved when it comes to "Full Contact Haunted Attractions." Many actually have you sign waivers to state that you enter at your own risk and they are not held liable. What are your thoughts?
We have, as of late, been asked about our thoughts on this subject by many of our followers and fans and even some from the Haunted Attraction Industry. Well, our thoughts are pretty simple. We do enjoy a grab here and a touch there. It definitely seems to give you a more hightened sense of fear and fright. There is no doubt about it.
Yet, there is a cautionary side to it as well. Being a full contact haunt can come with its problems which is bound to happen and that is why safety, above all, must be practiced by the individual haunted attraction to ensure that its customers are taken care of and are made just as much a top priority as their own actors. Otherwise we could be seeing major issues within the haunted attraction industry in the near future!
