Surprised I couldn’t find more in search on this!! Thursdays, trying it with my new indoor haunt. Losing my A$$ to the tune of about $1000 every night im open (employees and security) has it worked for anyone? Do I stay open the remaining Thursdays? City population around 46,000 daytime population around 100,00.

Is absolutely no-one showing up or something? Or is it just really low traffic? You might consider reserving Thursday nights for special promotions in the future, and not just count on regular traffic.

I would not do thursdays, they are break even nights for even the biggest haunts.

We are all volunteer for Thursday's, and every night for that matter.
Our freaks, and they're some of the best!, love acting, and have no problem showing up for Thursdays.
Last Thursday was our opening night, we have 18 people.
Last night, our second Thursday, we had 66. That's improvement enough for me.
I hope we keep that % increase for the rest of this weekend! Fingers crossed!

Second, you could accept that the next two Thursdays won't be bank nights, and go ahead and use them as live dress rehearsals to check the progress of your show, and so on. Also, if you need to make changes, adjustments, and tweaks to your show, then on a slow to average night would be an ideal time to test them.
Just a thought.
