Visitors to America’s infamous scare attraction McKamey Manor must sign a 40-page waiver and undergo screening, including a drugs test, before they can enter.

McKamey Manor, which features in a new documentary titled Monster Inside, is dubbed ‘America’s most haunted house’ and it’s certainly not for the faint hearted.

To date, no one has ever made it through the full tour, whether that's the original incarnation back in San Diego, or in Summertown, Tennessee, and Huntsville, Alabama.

Run by Russ McKamey, the attraction promises participants a psychological tour de force.

In an interview with LADbible back in 2020, he revealed that some guests have been so scared that they’ve pulled out their own teeth.

"They do it to themselves," he told us. "I don't do it myself.

"They pull their own tooth, which is very difficult to do, and they pull their own nail, and they cut their own hair. I just monitor it.

"With the use of hypnosis and other types of mind control techniques that we use, we can get them to do some crazy things - but they still have to be willing to do it, they have to, you know.

"Even though we use hypnosis and different mind control situations, they're still very much aware of what's going on. They're not like, completely out to where I can make them jump off a building or something."

He added: "So yeah, when the times that we've had people take out a tooth, they've taken out their own tooth, which is crazy to me. That's like, that's nuts to me. But yeah, they get into it, they get into it, and they try the best they can to really succeed."

But before people even get a chance to enter McKamey Manor there’s a lengthy and strict set of criteria they need to meet first, as well as signing a hefty disclaimer.

As you may have assumed, McKamey Manor is strictly for adults: visitors must be over the age of 21 or, if you’re 18 to 20, you can go with parental permission/guidance.

Anyone wishing to scare themselves silly at the Manor must be screened over the phone, Facebook or FaceTime before they’re invited along.

Alongside this, guests must complete a ‘sports physical’ and have a doctor’s note to prove that they are physically and mentally clear to give it a go.

McKamey Manor also runs a background check on its would-be guest and carries out a drug test on the day.

With all that done, there’s also some paperwork to take care of, including a 40-page waiver and proof of medical insurance.
