why is halloween so lame?

so i was just at Hershey Park for their Halloween after Dark attractions. Among the things they had was a haunted type attraction that was "adults only!". while i was skeptical, most of these things are all ages and watered down. and while it wasn't terribly bad, they sent too many people into it at once(trading faster lines for less scares), and as a result the people at the front of the line would get a spook, and everyone else was like, "well i guess that could have been scary".

but more than that, why is everything at Halloween so watered down and typical? my girlfriend happens to like going to these things, but they are either boring corporate sponsored deals or some hick backwater hayride thrown together. i know i am going to see a guy with a chainsaw, jason mask, michael myers costume, or some other really stupid mask.

but why cant these places take a risk? make it really adults only, make it so that you have to sign a disclaimer to go on it (since people will obviously sue if its too scary), and have professional fucking actors once in awhile. while i was on one of these hayrides a couple weeks ago, i got an awesome idea of a zombie invasion hayride. it could be so badass to have an actor or two on the ride, and have the ride get surrounded by actors dressed as zombies. while one person on the ride screams and shoots blanks from a gun, someone preselected on the ride gets grabbed and "eaten".

i mean, i dunno, there is so much you could do with Halloween and its just gotten so tame and uninteresting. Is there anything cool around where any of you live?
