The world's most terrifying haunted house, where participants allow their teeth to be pulled out, is still open.
McKamey Manor is dubbed a "torture chamber in disguise" with the owner being probed for traumatizing guests. Brave thrill-seekers have been submerged in water, trapped in small boxes, and even tormented by tarantulas, all for hours on end.
The house of horrors, in Tennessee, has been continuously dogged by complaints of violence and calls for it to be axed. Anyone who finishes the experience is rewarded with $20,000, but no one has.
Owner Russ McKamey said if the things people said about him were true, he wouldn't be free and running the experience.
"Either you actually complete the tour, which is not going to happen, or you mentally or physically are at such a breaking point that it’s not safe for you to continue and I need to take you out," Mckamey told the Daily Mail,
McKamey does try and weed out "knuckleheads" who try and get into the house and ruin it for everybody. He described the haunted house as a "mental game" or "survival boot camp" where none of the actors rough you up or lay a hand on you.
"You're not going to get through it because it's really tough and I'm really good at the psychological aspects," McKamey said.
