And to think that there is some scumbag lawyer willing to take a case like this.


First thing we need to do is shoot all the lawyers.

i think we're all in agreement. if your kid is a wuss don't subject him to haunted houses. this makes me want to see your haunted house.

Just one more prime example of someone's refusal to accept responsibility for their own actions...This shit pisses me off more than anything else I can think of...

Ugh...I seriously have to try to restrain my anger in order to post this...

Did you drag the child, kicking and screaming, through your exhibit?...I'd be willing to bet that the mother was the one who brought the child, and/or allowed him to walk through it...So...Why isn't SHE the one who's responsible for her child's 'trauma'?

Don't you think that a mother should be familiar enough with her own child to determine whether or not he could handle an experience such as this?...If she wasn't, and she made a bad judgement call because of it, I can't imagine how that's YOUR fault...

If her child was scared, then you accomplished your goal...Your exhibit was a success...Was the mother unaware that the PURPOSE for a Halloween haunted house exhibit is to SCARE someone?.......I could just see that in court...

Irresponsible Parent: I took my child to a haunted house exhibit and it scared him
Judge: Why did you take him in the first place?
Irresponsible Parent: It was Halloween, he wanted to be scared
Judge: *

Hasn't she ever been to a haunted house?...Has she NO idea what is expected to happen?...If she was not aware of how things are done, then shame on her for allowing her child to do something that she hasn't determined the risk or safety of...The child is 12 years old...Not 5 or 6...If he were of a fragile psyche, he should never have been exposed to such a thing in the first place...Perhaps she should have taken him to a 'Mary had A Little Lamb' exhibit instead...

I'm not blaming the child, either...It's the parents who are SUPPOSED to be responsible until a child turns 18...Maybe she's just feeling guilty because she KNOWS that SHE allowed this to happen to her child...All children are different...My kids could (and DID) handle this shit when they were 5 years old, I knew them well enough to determine that not only would they be able to deal with it, but that they would also get a kick out of it, and absolutely love it...

My sister-in-law brought her 10 year-old son with us to a haunted house once when Wicked Lady was 5 years old...Freddy Kreuger went after him...He screamed and freaked out...Wicked lady laughed her ass off...She was so cute...lol...Anyway, he had nightmares for about a week after that, but my sister-in-law didn't sue anyone, nor did she take my nephew to a fucking psychiatrist :rolleyes:...Wicked Lady called him a wimp then...She STILL teases him about it sometimes, and now he's 21...It ended up being a funny memory...

I hope to hell that woman doesn't ever allow her child to watch a horror movie...Could you imagine the ridiculous lawsuits that would follow?...Yeah...We CAN imagine it...Unfortunately there are FAR too many people who will blame, movies, music, video games, television or ANYTHING for whatever ails them...

I am SO sick of this shit......But, I do have to say...This is at least something a little 'new'...I'm really sorry that it has caused you so much trouble...Just be glad that you didn't give them any coffee that they could have spilled on themselves, and I sincerely hope that you didn't provide any cookies, cupcakes, brownies or other refreshments that could have made them fat...You would have had more than one lawsuit on your hands:rolleyes: ...Yeah...I know how stupid that was...That's EXACTLY my point!

GRRRRRR!!!!:mad: :mad: :mad:



I sincerely wish you the best of luck with this..



Stupid people should be shot, and put out of OUR misery...

Yeah what she said.

Jim, my friend who is the attorney reacted much the same way, "it's a haunted house, what did she think would happen?"

We are all a bit biased on this site about horror related things, I find the evening news is pretty scary for me!

I called most of the actors who helped out and told them we might need them to give a statement. I told them no one has done anything wrong, and they should actually take it as a compliment. I'm even considering asking a few patron's we know to give statements about their experience if it ever comes to that point.

I don't want to be a hypocrite and file a counter-suit because I feel the court system in our country has become an ATM for people looking for some quick cash, all because of their own irresponsibility.

I'm no 'Guy who knows about court stuff', but doesn't going to court, defendant or plaintiff, cost some money?

Also, you did nothing wrong. She's a dumb fuck who can't take care of her kid without screwing him up and then blaming someone else. Big difference
