I really should have known better than to expect ticket information from NYC Halloween Haunted House on April Fool's Day, but my excitement got the better of me. I saw the facebook post, "something's coming tomorrow..." and my reaction was entirely visceral. I stalked my email inbox from 10:20am to 10:43am. I jumped at every incoming message. Then at 10:43am, there it was. Three e-mails right in a row.
The first message contained just one word: "it." The second read: "begins." The third email said:
"it begins this month.
there are only twenty spots available and sixty-two people invited.
so when it starts, it will go fast.
please be prepared.
rules will be coming next. for now, enjoy this...."
(Underneath the message was a link to the video below.)
One thing is for sure. NYC Halloween Haunted House masterfully integrates suspense and fear into every aspect of their events.
Right now, I'm terrified. I'm terrified that I won't get to go.
