I just finished the Haunted Hydro in Fremont Ohio. I think it's an abonded water treatment plant but it's the best setup I've seen so far. The actors were great, so great that they made my wife spasticly screaming. For one thing, this is her first time in the states and she's never been to a haunted house before.
Anyway the whole thing was great. Good setups and they even had a real human skeleton inside of a coffin. Shit, I even jumped once.

Yeah, it was an abonded water treatment plant and the whole thing lasted 45 minutes. The actors were great at their job and for one thing, my wife messed up and screamed when the "mad doctor" came up from behind her and scared her while we were waiting in the parking lot. Once they found out she was a screamer, they ganged up on her.
I'm kinda pissed cause when I went to visit my brother in Cincy, there's an old navy ship they use there for their haunted house but I got there too early and it's supposed to be a good time too.
I want to hit a few more while I can. There's a haunted walk in the woods and a sanitarium that's close to me. If only I can convince Echo it's not real.

Going to Howl-o-Scream this Saturday at Busch Gardens, so this should be pretty fun

I thought this was going to be about "real" haunted areas for some reason. In which case, I'd still have to answer no.
Anyway, there's this company that does one over here every year and it's just called "The Haunt." I hear the admission is $15, which seems like a lot to me, but it might be worth checking out if I can get a big enough group to go. Those places usually make me jump for some reason or another, mainly because I don't like strange people/things popping out of nowhere and shoving things in my face.
People always make me the leader of the group too. Which means I get all the initial scares and everyone else is suspecting it 'cause they saw me jump or heard me yell out. Yeah, it kinda sucks but you do what you gotta do, I guess.

15 bucks is a little steep, I can see what you mean and as a matter of fact the fee for the Haunted Hydro was the same price cause it was actually two attractions. The first was the water treatment plant and the second was some lame assed maze that was across the parking lot. I didn't like how they called it a maze cause the whole thing was set up so you can find your way out easily.
But hey, even in the easy maze they still had montsers in every corner which made my wife scream so it means we got our moneys worth.

My ticket cost $40, but this it is very huge as it takes up most of the theme park

I went to one. In the 3-D circus exhibit, clowns encircled me and when I made a break for it, they chased me. I ran hard and found myself in the men's room.

Do you guys eat snickers in there?
On The West Wing this week, there was a scene that took place in a men's bathroom. Hanging right above each urinal appeared to be laminated newspapers and magazines. :confused:
Is that some distracting thing--something to make it less tempting for you to look at your neighbor while he's unzipping and using?
We seriously have nothing like that. We used to have couches to swoon onto. Nothing now. We're lucky if we have tampon machines. Luckier still if they're loaded.
