A Haunted House So Scary, It Requires a Waiver [Video]

Unless it has poisonous snakes slithering around in there – or rats with rabies – shouldn’t you be able to walk through a haunted house without keeling over from fright?

A couple in Southern California has supposedly created a haunted house so scary that they’re requiring guests to sign a waiver before going in.

Robbie and Heather Luther created the attraction called The 17th Door and are warning guests that the experience is very interactive and invades your space. If you walk into The 17th Door, you will get touched – and you might get wet.

Each visitor spends about a minute in 17 different rooms -- each with a unique theme and created with a lot of detail. All of the rooms are supposedly filled with monsters lurking around every corner.

The Luthers have created an important ground rule. Once you go in, the only way to get out is to use the word “mercy."

So far, about 350 people have used the safe word – and that’s just two weekends into the house's opening. Party on.

If you want to make a haunted house REALLY interesting, create a deal where one out of every 100 visitors dies. A Russian Roulette haunted house. Now that would separate the men from the boys.
