Mr. Haunt

Back about 4 years ago, a local Jaycees group did a very popular haunt. The haunt consisted of the use of an underground cave.
I had been to it a couple of times, and it was pretty cool!
Unfortunately for them they had to close do to a new requirement from the good old Fire Marshal. They were required to add another exit to the haunt before they could open. Needless to say they tried and tried, but were not able to build a second exit. During their work to get a second exit, they had a small cave in toward the entrance of the cave. This was also a bad issue for them. So after 23 years of haunting they closed.
I thought about contacting them to try and get a new haunt going.
I have a good friend that I work, with who is in the plans of opening a restaurant with a large banquet room. He said that I could use his banquet room for my haunt, or maybe giving the Jaycees an opportunity to haunt again at this location.
UPDATE!!!!!
But other then that, it looks like that I may have found my location. Things are slowly falling into place. My good friend wants to haunt with me as well. He is just as passionate about haunting as I am, and he has owned previous business, so this is a plus. Another piece of information, he is working close with SCORE as well.
As you know, restaurants have high requirements for fire codes, so having all the correct amenities will not be an issue. Plus with the banquet room, there should be enough parking.
Now if I can only find some funding to get the ball rolling! LOL!
