Amanda and Lindsay peel back the blood-soaked curtain on McKamey Manor, the controversial haunted attraction often called the most extreme in the world. We dive into the history of its founder, Russ McKamey, and explore how this experience evolved from a backyard haunt into a psychological endurance test that pushes participants to their physical and mental limits.
Is it performance art? A legal torture chamber? Or something even darker? We examine real participant stories, the infamous waiver, legal challenges, and the viral videos that catapulted the Manor into notoriety. Join us as we question the boundaries of fear, consent, and entertainment—and why people keep signing up anyway.
Warning: This episode contains discussions of intense psychological themes and disturbing content. Listener discretion is advised.
