Hey LOI fans, if you’ve been following our website and news stories, you’ve read the recent story about how several maintenance and construction workers reported disturbing feelings and weird happenings when working inside Dr. Psycho’s Haunted Estate. The home that the majority of the attraction is based in was built almost 200 years before the park ever opened. Saturday night, as LOI was closing up at 2AM, the media team and several actors, who work in the attraction, paid a visit to Dr. Carver’s grisly family home.
As the group entered the building, now empty and quiet with the attractions and lights turned off, electronic equipment began malfunctioning. “As soon as I reached the top of the stairs, the video camera just died,” said one media team member. “Once we reached the room upstairs that is supposedly haunted (the room with the old washer and dryer), we figured we could at least get cell phone video or something. The camera wasn’t responding at all, even when we switched out for the alternate battery. People began trying to film and one by one their cell phones died.” The group spent the better part of an hour inside Dr. Carver’s home, wandering from room to room upstairs and attempting contact with any entity that might haunt the area.
“The sense of dread in this building is intense,” says the team leader of the attraction. “When we were adding a few little things to the attraction a few nights ago, strange things began happening. We knew there was no one else in the park, but all the animatronics (that only work if someone is near them) in the entire house began going off at once. It was the scariest thing that’s ever happened to me.”
The media team is planning to take several video cameras and an entire array of photo cameras into the attraction next Friday night after the park closes. Here they will attempt, while fully equipped with the most fail-safe equipment possible, to film or get a picture of the entity. “We definitely felt something up there, and with more equipment and less people, we may be able to draw this thing out,” says a media team member.
