The Nightmares Fear Factory is a haunted house attraction in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. It is the oldest haunted house in North America in continuous operation.〔("From Frightening to Fun, Niagara Events Have It All This Halloween". )〕 They are known for posting images of their visitors just as they have been shocked to a Flickr account.〔("Nightmares Fear Factory Has The Best Flickr Photostream Ever". )〕〔Tim Barribeau. ("Hilarious Portraits of Terrified People". ) ''Popular Photography'', October 7, 2011.〕〔Whitney Jefferson. ("Haunted House's Flickr Feed Is Frighteningly Funny" ) ''Jezebel'', October 7, 2011.〕 The attraction is allegedly built in an old coffin factory.〔Claire Lawton. ("Nightmares Fear Factory's Spook Album". ) ''Phoenix New Times'', October 7, 2011.〕 The former owner of the factory, Abraham Mortimer, was killed when a stack of coffins collapsed upon him.〔Mary K. Nolan. "Win big at agency's grand opening; Scrapbook / Travel Tips". ''The Spectator'', October 28, 2011.〕 Patrons are told that if they get too scared they can say the safety-word "nightmares" and they will escort you out. However, sometimes they will not escort you out and continue the scaring even worse than before. In the last 30 years, about a half-million people have gone through, and many have opted out part-way and had their names added to a public "chicken list".〔("Haunted House Visitors Get Scared To Death". ) ''ABC News''.〕 Over 130,000 people have had to leave through the chicken line.〔("Nightmares FAQ". ) 〕 The tour takes about 15 minutes and is in total darkness, except for small red lights on the floors, walls and ceiling that patrons must follow in order to get through the haunted house. Patrons' frightened reactions are recorded and broadcast in the lobby for all to see. Unlike conventional haunted houses, the Nightmares Fear Factory doesn't rely primarily on blood and gore in order to induce fear. Rather, there are live actors in scary costumes that come at the patrons out of the darkness and taunt them, scream at them, speak in creepy voices, etc. They have been known to grab, push and pull patrons in order to get a reaction. There are also scary sounds like growls, eerie music, spooky voices, yelling, and so on. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nightmares Fear Factory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
