Who would have so many things in common with those of us in this haunt business that we might consider them as "brothers?"
Tonight they toured my house again and were a lot of fun!
They work seasonally. The weather drastically affects their income. They work hard to set up and tare down and most importantly they see almost the same customers most of us see, under the same mental and emotional conditions of fear, machismo, people looking for entertainment....guessed yet?
The carnival workers. Yup!
As they were walking out my exit the owner said, "The threat of bad weather keeps my customers at home moreso than the actual weather itself."
So very true.
They are fun!
Even though they have a haunted house in the carnival and have experience(s) to match ours, some of them are still so much fun and sometimes easy to scare!
One first-timer named "Bob" was attempting to be smart-mouthed and I sliced and diced him everytime, much to the extreme amusement of all the others in the room.
About the last things Bob said had the subject of "satan" come up and Bob said, "He's my Dad."
Jim said, "Contrary to what some people believe, you cannot kill satan by having sex with him." (The obvious inference was that not only had Bob had sex with satan butt that Bob was his son.) This was about the time poor old Bob threw in the wise-guy towel, their tour was almost over.
In the first room I showed everyone the little religious icon I had recently bought in a local antique store for "Bob", it is sort of like a fettish and it does one little trick which also saw the roomfull laughing once again at Bob!
Now everyone in that room knows what some of your very personal alone time accomplishes!
