2
00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:17.440
haunt industry. Welcome to the show. I'm Philip on the

off to Darryl.
10
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.399
Haunts nationwide will open for their first off season events
11
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:44.439
of the new year, with Friday the thirteenth and Valentine's
12
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:48.640
Day offerings operating dates rains from February sixth through February
13
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:52.200
twenty first, suggesting some haunts will try to extend the holiday.
14
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.920
Keep on listening for our full list of over one
15
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:58.439
hundred haunts later in this news show. Inside Fright Night,
16
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:02.759
West Virginia's new Valentine event, Bright Night's WV is opening
17
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:07.400
for Valentine's Weekend with Final Cut Till Death, a survival
18
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:11.519
horror experience that places guests directly inside the story while
19
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:16.079
they navigate Valentine's themed tourers scenarios layered inside The attraction
20
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:19.840
is Cupid Crawl, a three stop bar crawl hidden behind
21
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:24.719
secret doors and available exclusively to upgraded ticket holders. Creative
22
00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:28.480
director Ashley Long joined the Haunted Attraction Network to explain
23
00:01:28.519 --> 00:01:31.439
how the event works and why it represents a more
24
00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:36.000
intentional approach to off season programming. Ashley is synthesizing two
25
00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:40.120
proven operational tests into one cohesive product by combining the
26
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:44.120
survival horror mechanic they tested last summer with a hidden
27
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:48.120
Cupid Crawl concept that's sold out during Christmas. This is
28
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:51.560
a calculated move to raise per cap revenue with premium
29
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.040
sixty dollars ticket option, while ensuring the event is distinct
30
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:58.840
enough to avoid cannibalizing her core Halloween season. Ashley is
31
00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:02.120
betting that high quality off season events build brand equity
32
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:05.959
and create revenue streams that don't cannibalize Halloween. But that
33
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:09.919
only works if the experience is differentiated from the Halloween product.
34
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:12.919
We don't just throw Christmas lights up in the scene.
35
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:16.319
Every character changes, the props change. We will take down
36
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:19.120
those air props and replace them with Christmas air prop.
37
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:22.240
Ashley said, a lot of people don't go through the effort,
38
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:24.879
but we do, and I think our customers see that,
39
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:29.199
and they return. The differentiation strategy is crucial because she
40
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:33.000
is targeting a specific and non traditional Haunt audience. While
41
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:36.360
operating a West Virginia Haunt in twenty degree February weather
42
00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:40.159
seems daunting, Ashley is leveraging the built in foot traffic
43
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:43.680
of the adjacent Glades Springs Resort, which is already at
44
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:47.680
peak occupancy for ski season. Valentine's Day weekend is already
45
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:50.159
a huge weekend for us. These people that are coming
46
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:53.080
from the South, maybe they've never done Fright Nights before,
47
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:55.759
but now I can market to them. Ashley added, by
48
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:59.439
bundling the event with resort packages, she attracts guests who
49
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.879
are already on site for skiing and seeking evening entertainment,
50
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:06.319
turning the Haunt into a resort amenity that introduces the
51
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:10.520
brand to a wider demographic without relying solely on local
52
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:13.560

offers at Bfxcreates dot Com is six Flags preparing to
71
00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:25.480
sell more parks what the filings suggest. A series of
72
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:29.000
trademark applications filed last week suggest that six Flags may
73
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:33.120
be preparing to sell additional properties, continuing the portfolio reduction
74
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:37.199
strategy implied by its recent debt refinancing. An entity called
75
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:41.920
Enchanted Parks Holding LLC, linked to Orlando based Innovative Attraction
76
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:46.199
Management IAM, has filed trademarks incorporating the names of several
77
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:51.720
current Six Flag properties, including Michigan's Adventures, Six Flags, Saint Louis,
78
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:55.759
Oceans of Fun, Water Safari, and The Great Escape Lodge.
79
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:59.800
While trademark filings alone don't confirm transactions, the scope and
80
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.800
s becificity of these names suggest preparation for potential rebranding
81
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:07.279
tied to asset transfers. Since the Cedar Fare and Six
82
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:10.920
Flags merger closed, six Flags has been explicit that not
83
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:13.839
every park fits its future model. In the November Q
84
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:18.079
three earnings call, chief financial Officer Brian Withero revealed that
85
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:22.240
the portfolio has sharply diverged. One group of parks, representing
86
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:26.279
approximately seventy percent of the company's IBITA has recognized brands
87
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:31.279
and saw flat attendance and incremental earnings increases, while underperforming parks,
88
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.879
many of which are smaller and less well known, saw
89
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:37.959
third quarter attendance declines of five percent and increased operating
90
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:41.959
expenses by offloading a bundled package of regional water parks
91
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:45.639
and lower tier properties to an operator like IAM, Six
92
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:48.600
Flags can clean up the balance sheet, reduce the drag
93
00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:52.759
from underperforming assets, and concentrate investment on the seventy percent
94
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:55.800
of parks that actually drive earnings. This allows the company
95
00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:58.240
to focus capital on parks with the brand is strong
96
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:02.120
enough to command premium pricing and where operational improvements can
97
00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:05.800
generate meaningful returns. The question is whether six Flags can
98
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.120
use the proceeds from these sales and the five year
99
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:12.639
runway from refinancing to make the remaining properties profitable enough
100
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:15.959
to justify the higher fixed costs the company bought Breathing
101
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:19.160
Room now it needs to execute. In this week's episode
102
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:22.519
of Green Tagged, Philip and Scott discuss how this asset
103
00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:27.199
sales strategy may unfold in parallel with the company's debt refinancing.

A recent paper from researchers at the University of Florida
146
00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:21.120
delves into how shared recreational fear experiences, such as haunted houses,
147
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:24.919
can increase feelings of closeness within social groups. Since twenty
148
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:28.799
twenty two, Gainesville Fear Garden in Gainesville, Florida, has served
149
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.480
as both a pop up haunt and a bona fide
150
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:35.879
psychological research lab. Over seven thousand participants have attended seven
151
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:40.279
events organized by over two hundred student researchers, from carnivorous
152
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:44.840
plans since sinkholes to AI powered nightmares. Each event utilized
153
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:48.720
elements of immersive theater, headphones, and blindfolds to test new
154
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.440
ways to entertain and terrify. In their latest paper, Haunted
155
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.519
Attraction The Effects of Recreational Fear on Interpersonal Bonding, the
156
00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:00.559
team discussed their findings from participant questionnaires and into a
157
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:03.960
majority of participants reported that sharing of fun or frightening
158
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:06.960
experience made them feel closer to others in their group,
159
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:10.399
especially at the group level. Follow Up interviews with participants
160
00:10:10.440 --> 00:10:14.440
revealed that bonding tended to happen after the haunt, through talking, laughing,
161
00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:17.960
and reflecting on the frightening experience together, rather than during
162
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:21.559
the haunt itself. This suggests that shared experiences can promote
163
00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:25.879
social bonding, especially when groups process them together afterwards. Haunters
164
00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:28.200
may want to take note of these findings, as they
165
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:33.440
imply that post experience, shared spaces such as midways, dining areas,
166
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.159
or bars, may help to enhance the perceived benefit of
167
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:40.559
the events the study, whoever, notes limitations in the research.
168
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:44.320
Participants were drawn from those who already enjoy scary attractions,
169
00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:47.320
so the results may not apply to those who do not. Also,
170
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:50.759
a notable minority did not feel closer to others after
171
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.399
the experience, leading researchers to theorize that if someone feels
172
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:57.200
vulnerable but does not get the support they hope for,
173
00:10:57.559 --> 00:11:00.919
it can strain relationships. Shared fear act as a safe
174
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:04.159
stress test of social support. Hershey aims to break out
175
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:07.159
of the seasonal game. The Hershey Company has increased its
176
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:10.159
marketing budget for Hershey's by twenty percent to fund the
177
00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:13.679
brand's first new advertising campaign in eight years. The company
178
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:16.799
will include both traditional and streaming TV, as well as
179
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:21.600
TikTok influencer campaigns, live event and activity around cultural moments
180
00:11:21.919 --> 00:11:25.240
like the Winter Olympics in America two fifty celebrations. You
181
00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:27.840
see churnin change throughout the course of the year, in
182
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:31.200
different seasonal moments and over the course of life stages too,
183
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:34.960
said Stacy Taffett, Chief Growth Officer of Hershey. Our goal
184
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:37.120
is to fill in the gaps. The company hopes to
185
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:40.399
increase sales outside of Halloween and Easter, as well as
186
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:43.879
to households without children who eat sweets. When rising cocoa
187
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:47.159
costs and tariffs have hurt profits. The company believes strengthening
188
00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:50.159
at core Hershey's brand will help drive growth across its
189
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:54.480
broader portfolio. Camp Nowhere returns this summer. Children and teens

207
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:58.360
judgment on an email hack lawsuit. On January fifteenth, US
208
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:01.840
District Judge Alita Hrout of the Middle District of Tennessee
209
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:05.960
ruled that Justin Eurase is liable for accessing and publicizing
210
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:09.799
Russ mccamee's private email. Several related claims, however, have been
211
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:13.279
left for trial, including federal and state computer fraud and
212
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:16.919
intentional infliction of emotional distress. The lawsit arose from the
213
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:20.879
October twenty twenty three release of the Hulu documentary Monster,
214
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:25.159
Inside America's Most Extreme Haunted House, which centered on the
215
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:29.559
controversial McCamey manor in Summertown, Tennessee. In the film, the
216
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:32.519
erase brags that he hacked it in mccamee's personal email
217
00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:36.159
account by calling the provider, guessing a security question and
218
00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:39.200
changing the password, saying I locked him out. We hit
219
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:42.360
the jackpot. The Erase published over sixty of the private
220
00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:46.399
emails of the mccamee's manner exposed Facebook group. McCamey sued
221
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:49.279
for violations of the Federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act
222
00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:52.559
and the Stored Communications Act, as well as state law
223
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:56.799
claims for invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
224
00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:59.960
Judge Trugger ruled that Euras's public statements about the hacker,
225
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:04.159
combined with his repeated invocation of the Fifth Amendment during discovery,
226
00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:08.320
established his liability for accessing the emails. However, there is
227
00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:11.519
still a factual dispute over whether or not mccamee suffered
228
00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:15.720
actionable economic damages. Mccamee was denied a summary judgment in
229
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:19.360
the CFAA and a related law claim. His claim of
230
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:23.039
intentional infliction of emotional distress may proceed to a jury.
231
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:26.240
