#L8 - The Business of Real Haunted Houses

Recorded Live on 7/26/2024 In this thrilling live episode, Ange and Stef dive deep into the eerie world of real haunted houses and the booming business behind them. Ever wondered why a night at a famous haunted site can cost a small fortune? We explore the economics of paranormal tourism, from the iconic Conjuring House to the infamous Waverly Hills Sanatorium. These chilling locations are not just spooky attractions; they’re big business. We'll reveal how much it costs to stay the night, the risks involved, and why the prices are soaring.

But the world of haunted houses isn’t just about profit. We’ll also discuss the controversy surrounding these locations, including the ethical questions about charging hefty fees and controlling evidence. The Conjuring House, under new ownership, has stirred up quite a storm with lawsuits, employee disputes, and strict social media contracts. Why are some locations becoming increasingly inaccessible to smaller content creators? Are the high costs killing the spirit of ghost hunting? We'll delve into these burning questions and more, shedding light on the murky side of managing these spectral sites.

As if that’s not enough, we’re also updating you on the latest news from Bobby Mackey’s Music World, one of America's most haunted nightclubs, which faces demolition. What happens to the spirits when their haunt is torn down? Join us for this spellbinding discussion on the responsibility of managing haunted locations, the importance of treating employees fairly, and the mysterious fate of spirits displaced by the wrecking ball. Tune in, if you dare, and uncover the shadowy side of the business of real haunted houses!
