Haunted Houses are popular places where people go through a house or building and workers try to scare you. Sometimes there are special goals or prizes if or when you complete it. These are all fun too, what if you took a haunted house to the extreme? That’s exactly what McKamey Manor does.

About

With a population of 866 Summertown, Tennessee is home to this Haunted House. This is considered to be a ten hour endurance challenge says spook-house proprietor Russ McKamey. Before you enter though, you have to read aloud a 40 page waiver and then sign it, but if you complete it you get a prize of 20,000 dollars.

Signing

Once you sign the 40 page waiver and enter the haunted house, anything can happen to you. You can get your head shaved, tooth pulled, finger broken, put into a straitjacket, your mouth duct taped shut, being put into a pool of gross water, and so much more. 

How  it Works

It is also said that they use hypnotism to make the customer think what Russ McKamey wants them to think. He also has to film it for proof that what the customer says happen really did´nt and for entertainment. ̈ When I use hypnotism I can put you in a kiddie pool with a couple inches of water and tell there’s a great white shark in there, and you ́re gonna think there ́s a shark in there.¨ he tells WFLA

What Happens

A woman from Colorado according to the Nashville scene lasted three hours before she quit. ¨I was waterboarded, I was tased, I was whipped,¨”she claimed. ¨I was repeatedly hit in the face.¨ She was told to even dig a ditch and then lay in it as staff members through dirt in her face.

Hate

Not only did stuff happen to the customers, lots of things have happened to McKamey just for having the haunted house there. Somebody tried shooting him and towns people started a petition just to shut it down. McKamey told the Nashville Scene about people who enter ¨You ́re gonna get fish hooked, you ́re gonna get swollen lips, you can get black eyes – it’s all in the contract. You ́re agreeing to that. That’s what they’re signing up for … extreme physicality.¨

As you can see, not many people like this Haunted house and some people are even brave or crazy enough to go and sign the contract and enter it. If you don’t think that it’s that extreme go see it for yourself.
