Last I heard, you need a ticket even just for the bar. Which is sort of another reason people think this may not do so well

Yeah

I hope this does well but watching it all....I'm kinda like how is this making money?

Maybe private events will make it work but I just have no idea how you fund all this daily and make profits

Also with everything going on....I was excited they are building a second one of these but man, feels like they should have let this test out first and see how it turns out

I feel like at some point they will need an AP even if you can only do a house once per visit (to help keep lines down) or make it weekday only but anyway I think it looks like something I will enjoy but the money part is what worry's me

Look, I've never been to Vegas, but from what I've heard about -- Cirque shows, magicians, music residencies, countless bars -- is there really a market outside of October for corporate events in a haunt venue? I can't imagine convention-goers getting excited for a party here in April when there's probably a hundred more normie-friendly venues.

Currently, there doesn’t seem to be a market for any venues in Vegas right now.

Yeah that's sort of another concern I have re: this location right now.

Well I will enjoy it for the....year or two its around.

I hope it works out but in this economy...it feels like something that will be hard to work without some reworks like letting you in for free, an AP type program and so on

Pleasure Island had turnstiles for years. Eventually, it became free to access. I could see Horror Unleashed going through a similar transition if the bars don't get enough foot traffic, but I'm guessing they don't want to "give away" the common area performers and shows.

that’s what the $25 cocktails are for!
