  • 86: McKamey Manor Arrest: Did Extreme Haunted House Owner Go Too Far?

    86: McKamey Manor Arrest: Did Extreme Haunted House Owner Go Too Far?
    Oct 17 2024
    This past July, Russ McKamey (owner of the World's Most Intense Haunted Attraction, McKamey Manor) was arrested for attempted murder.

    McKamey Manor is known for being an attraction where guests are physically and verbally abused. They can have teeth extracted without novocain, be buried alive, have their worst fears preyed upon amongst other things. Though guests are given a safe word to quit the experience, it is rarely respected.

    Let's talk about what the charges were, why they were ultimately dropped, and look into the history of how McKamey Manor became the horror show it is.

    TW: mention of domestic violence, descriptions of torture.
