That Time of the Year: Haunted Houses


It’s just that time of the year again. People break out the costumes and masks and prepared to be scared. That’s right folks, it’s time for haunted houses. For me personally, I absolutely love going to haunted houses. Although I’m always terrified going in and I need someone with me at all times, I still love going and putting myself through the torture of almost peeing my pants every 5 minutes.
Every year, I always do the special trip to the haunted houses in my area. That’s right, for some reason I don’t just do one, every year I continually put myself through the agony of 2 or 3 haunted houses in one night. But it’s a tradition and I love doing it.
The one thing I’ve been super interested in are all the extremely scary haunted houses that I continue to hear about. I kept hearing about this haunted house in Baton Rouge that’s 13 stories of pure scary and they actually use live snakes and spiders and such. So I did a little research and the stuff is true!
The haunted house in Baton Rouge, LA is called 13 Gates and it’s 13 floors of complete terror and fear. Honestly I don’t know how someone could put themselves through that. They even have to put up a warning telling people that it they have faint heart problems, it’s advised that they shouldn’t go! How can someone put themselves through that? And there’s so many more haunted houses that are just like that! Some even go year round! I feel like if I tried any of those, I would possibly be emotionally unstable after!
There’s a certain level of scary that I can go through and the haunted houses in my area are about as much as I can take. Like really, live snakes and spiders!? I already have a deathly fear of them and then put them in the context of people in scary masks popping out at random points on top of that and it’s almost guaranteed that I will pass out!
If you are one of those people that love to be extremely scared then I totally suggest getting online and finding the scariest haunted house that you can, but for me I think I’ll just stick to the ones close to me that I know and I know I won’t die of fear because of!
