Cedar Point changes haunt attraction names associated with mental illness

So what's the hospital themed house's new name going to be?

The people at the National Alliance on Mental Illness must be crazy if they think this haunted house is damaging the public image of people who suffer from mental illness.

Wow....

If I was Dick, I would tell them to kick rocks. Its halloween...

Changing the name so they dont "hurt anyones feelings"? Who gets hurt feelings by a name?

Talk to the American Indians...or native americans...or whatever they are called now.

"The Edge of Madness: Six Feet Under."

My best idea for a rename?

"People with mental illnesses are scary, so run! Run as fast as you can. Don't touch them! Don't even point! Just run! Run now! Preferably screaming loudly in the process! - The Attraction"

This is why I don't work for Cedar Fair.

^ Love the profile pic by the way

All these CF name changes are making me crazy! ;)

:)

Why not just go with the tried and true?

Thunderhawk.

These name changes are so gay.

Be thankful it's not a Six Flags deal..

otherwise it'd be the Dr. Prozac's House of Happiness presented by Pfizer, with the Zany Zoloft Zoo presented by Wyeth. For those that want to get to the front of the line first they'll have the Cialis Cut-A-Line pass sponsored by Merck

^so true.

Hey now, I am a farmer and corn stalkers sheds a bad light on my scarecrows. I worked at the Toys r us in the factory and the people that work in happy jack's make people think bad of me!

And all these pretzels are making me thirsty!

How about Dr. I. B. Offendad's Asylum for the Criminally Over Sensitive?

Krause's Krypt?

Nah. That's the new name for the show at Red Garter. I don't really see how it's any better though. The new name for the haunted house is Eternity Infirmary.

I still prefer my suggestion for the haunted house to be called "Kinzel's Dementia".

I guess I should have read that a bit closer :)

Terrifying!

Seriously though, the criminally insane are scary. Halloween is about scary stuff. I don't see them taking out witches because Wiccans are offended, or take out Chainsaw wielding hillbillies because Appalachian American loggers are offended. Or what about the ghosts? Everyone has a dead friend of family member. Or aliens? Some people think that aliens are Biblical demons. Blood and gore are offensive to some people for different reasons, some personal.

I could give about a hundred more examples. Scary stuff is edgy.
