Refering to Mckamey Manor as "the World's Most Blank Haunted House" is major clickbait *AND* it BENEFITS Mckamey and his Manor!! Shame on you Thiccboi!!! I knew you had very low morals and almost zero ethics but jfc this is just too much. Clickbait is already annoying and problematic, but calling that place anything but a pervert's manipulative assault grounds is disgusting dude. I personally have watched quit a few videos on Mckamey Manor and those videos proved that Mckameys claim of "World's Most Blank" was completely fraudulent and actually a part of their advertising and manipulative schemes. Their claim of "27,000 people on the wait list" was also proven false. Meat Tubs, you're so disconnected from the viewer and apparently so greedy to the point of helping a seggs predator (Mckamey) gain more notoriety, fame, and exposure. I cannot in good faith follow you. Severely disappointment in your piss poor judgement and complete lack of care towards giving predators more exposure and engagement.
his actors supposedly being people that have experienced the haunted house is literally exactly like how jigsaws apprentices have survived his traps that’s insane
I was gonna say this is literally SAW without that “moral improval” that Jigsaw had cause he’s at least torturing people “to better them into stronger and proper members of society”. Which is still fucked but ya know, it’s a movie and plot stuff. This dude on the other hand just does it for fun and isn’t even trying to hide or disguise it in any way.
The fact that he literally said he doesn't want people that fight back is absolutely insane now that he has been charged with attempted murder and rape. He is a predator in every sense of the word...
Good question. One of his videos he admits that 3 people have died. I never saw anything about those people. I thought that was odd 3 people die and the only mention is in a random conversation. So ya more needs to be discovered about this guy. Let's see how his domestic arrest pans out.
@@victoriaimdahl6058I don’t think anyone actually died there. I believer that was just for shock value. The same way he says there’s a “years long” wait list, there isn’t. That’s just bait to get people to sign up
I was wondering when Hunter mentioned that its streamed and ppl put money on it to request things, and with how many female victims there seem to be, if he'd ever sexually assaulted someone in the "experience." Not necessarily outright rape, but sexual violence where attacks might be aimed at genitals or breasts or smth. Now that he's been accused of rape, it's entirely possible
@victoriaimdahl6058 apparently there are no documented deaths in the house. They likely couldn't even get away with accidental murders bc ppl would be reported as missing and such. Itd only be possible if they selected ppl with no friends or family, but even then idk. So I think he was just saying that for shock, but who knows
Him canceling the challenge when the contestants keep saying theyre fine should be illegal. That's like telling someone they can't win the lottery even if their ticket matches up perfectly.
It’s also most likely illegal for him to torture the people before they even sign the waiver, or to pressure them into signing the waiver. Lots of legal red flags here, despite his insistence that he’s covered
Years ago, I met Russ McKamey at the Halloween convention Scare LA (now, Midsummer Scream). No shit, he was one of the most unhinged and freakiest people I’ve ever met in my life. What got me was during the panel he was a part of, he kept insisting that his “haunt” is family friendly and they don’t even allow cursing. Another Haunter on the panel named Don Julson (Haunter out of Orange County, CA) got into it with him saying that he’s a sadist who gets off on people who he tricks into being trapped in his haunt. Russ challenged him to go through it to see for himself, and Don said he’d do it if Russ did it with him. Russ declined saying that his haunt is for “younger people” and that he’s an old man, drawing A LOT of boos from the audience, causing him to lash out.
@@dubstepsquid31 The irony of him not allowing cussing kills me with all shit he puts people through, then has the audacity to say he’s “family friendly”. Lol
@@so-calseany1176There's a psychological thingy(idk what the termnis) that he's taking advantage of, whether he realizes it or not. Hypocrisy is one of the most infiriating aspect that humans can see in each other, and considering the bulk of the torture boils down to "GO FOR MAX EMOTIONS, ALL EMOTIONS, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE UNTIL THEY QUIT" i can see where it worls in his favor(at trying to make people quit)
Dude I was looking thru these comments looking for this f****** exact comment didn't find it so I posted literally the same thing maybe worded different and then as soon as I press post I see your comment😅😂
And his past wife, Carrol, said he's hygienically gross. Never showers, brushes teeth, etc. He's never been attractive, yet his "charisma" and weird little house, suck in a few younger women. I don't get it.
The waiver, for those that don't look it up, even includes not holding them accountable for death, drowning, suffocation, tooth extraction, stabbing, carbon monoxide poisoning, aneurysms, and you can't quit unless THEY think you've suffered major psychological or physical trauma. Edit to add: Yes, I'm aware that a waiver likely isn't valid in a court of law, mentioning this is more so to highlight how absolutely delusional and twisted the man is to think he could ever get away with this sort of thing with a waiver. A former Marine did come close to winning, like right at the end, and when they wanted to keep going to win Russ refused and said they weren't fit to continue. He just wants an excuse to torture people, there likely wasn't ever an actual, tangible reward aside from getting mutilated within an inch of your life. I'm really sad to learn he had the opportunity to get his hands on a poor woman who likely thought he was a nice fella. Dude is a manipulative, sick liar and only lets on what he wants people to see. Russ shouldn't be permitted to exist amongst the general populance, especially not in that way as he is DEFINITELY the type of person to take things too far and accidentally kill someone. He doesn't know when to stop, even if torture is someone's kink, he doesn't know what's too much and will kill someone. Or maybe he does and he just doesn't care. Sincerely hope such a sick individual is left to rot in prison.
idk about anything else but death i dont see that holding up in court maybe at an amusement park where it was an accident with no negligence but in this situation they are actively trying to get you as close to death as they can, and from the charges hes caught id say they want to kill their participants but know if they do then they cant continue their venture.
The waiver isn’t an actual legal contract. The reason Russ has been able to get away with making fetish videos is because he threatens to post it to Facebook your friends and family and your employer
RecklessBen deserves a lot of credit for participating in this torturous experience, fully at the mercy of an insane Sadist. He also helped other victims tell their own stories of exploitation.
Ben was also there long after the scumbag actually had actors, or really anyone around him willing to participate in his ****ery. Look at those 2014 videos when he first moved to that ranch in San Diego, That's when he took it from an "extreme home haunt" in a suburb that local high schoolers volunteered to act for, to a full on gitmo simulator without anyone understanding what the hell they were even getting themselves into. Especially those first two groups that went in. Disgusting.
My first thought exactly. There was never a money prize. Just pay your shitty brand 50lb dogfood to get tortured for nothing. "Where's my 20 thou-wow?" "Well...ya see...about that.."
I went down this mckamey rabbit hole a few years ago, and i remember a vlog where his young KIDS were interviewed and said “yeah he watches the videos a lot in his room . . . Lots of screaming ladies” and it freaked me out hard - definitely a gross undertone here
Yet another shoutout to Reckless Ben. He’s done a ton of investigative journalism whilst still giving off the vibe of stoner bro, but he’s incredibly talented too. From infiltrating talent shows, to Scientology, to twelve tribes, and McKamey Manor was just another notch on the belt.
There isn’t a 10,000 person waitlist. Heck, there isn’t even a 10 person waitlist. Reckless Ben signed up and got approved in the same day. He exposed Russ as a fraud, and helped lead to his arrest.
A man of culture. Reckless ben is the shit, sadly he's been silent on everything for some months now. It's probably related, since he got the police to start looking into him. This gf stuff is just the foot in the door, he's gonna get crucified
Heard somewhere on the internet that some guy knew a friend who has this medical condition where they couldn’t feel pain so he tried to get his friend there to get the money prize. Turns out as soon as the ‘attraction’ owner found out about the guys condition they became immediately uninterested in them and they practically got ghosted. This guy is a sadistic freak and doesn’t care about you..
Imagining someone going through all this constant torment for hours on end only to then smugly say straight to McKamey's face "Didn't hurt lol" is so funny. Bro was too scared have his torture puppetmaster fetish get blueballed.
I'm not sure about that story. It's a bit sus. People with that sort of condition actually have to be really careful about things that may harm them. They don't have pain as a warning that something is physically harming them and so can quickly end up with complications.
In fairness that is a liability. The guy could be bleeding and not notice. An example would be a case study where a DM (diabetes) patient's dog ate/chewed her big toe and she only noticed it in the morning prompting a long medical journey. ( Alot of medication to prevent infection plus amputation)
@@rukiapyonpyon Russ dragged a guy behind a truck down a gravel road, then waterboarded him in dirty water to punish the guy for crying. The guy spent significant time in the hospital after that. Russ didn’t get in any trouble for that, he doesn’t care about harming anyone or killing them.
my cousin and i signed up years ago when it was still in Cali; we never got a response but we were certain that we could beat it. Refound him a couple years ago and found out that he doesn't let anyone win, he can medically call it off whenever he wants whenever someone does too good.
the document definitely wouldn't hold up in court. you cant just make a document saying you're allowed to break the law. assault is still assault even if they gave you permission to do it. any illegal substances used, are still illegal. any bodily harm caused, is still prosecutable if charges are pressed and pursued. its like assisted suicide. just because someone says they want to die, doesn't mean you're allowed to kill them.
@@boinkmcbingo8890 physical assault is a crime. You can not cause notable bodily harm to other people. It will not be the victim, the state will come after you because you just committed a crime. You cannot make a document, that says you're allowed to break the law. Boxing (among other sports) is one of the very few exceptions to that law. You, as a normal person, cannot just go attack other people, even if they agree to you doing it.
A sport like boxing is a little different then being tied up and tortured, there are some things that you legally cannot consent to. No waiver would hold up if someone beat the shit out of you and breaks your jaw. Waivers typically cover potential harm as a consequence of an activity, not consent to DIRECT extreme bodily harm. There's a level of force and harm that exceeds your ability to consent. Unlicensed boxing for example is illegal.
TL: DR: I remember being obsessed with MckAmey Manor at a point in time in middle school when it was still a haunted house. But as soon as I reached high school me and my friend looked them up to see if their was more to it and were horrified to watch a long video of his actors basically jumping two women that looked like they were going in and out of consciousness and I stopped looking to anything more about them until this very video. I remember finding out about MckAmey Manor in middle school. I used to think it was so cool because not only did they donate (Or at least I thought b/c I’ve heard apparently he doesn’t even donate it, just gives it to his dogs) to a charity that saves race dogs, but the videos I seen way back then was like your typical haunted house, but the could pick you up and stuff (what got my attention was a clip that showed them grabbing someone and pulling them under a couch) I was fascinated with the place for a long time. But as years passed I noticed how ‘physical’ the actors got and how the disturbing the videos started to feel. (Like the ‘code names’ he gave to each video based on the person being tortured, or how they’d cut parts of the videos then cut back to people in clear intense distress and begging for it to end just for him to laugh, say no ,then cut back again.) But then I remember mentioning it to a friend about how intense I thought this specific haunted house was. He looked it up to see the promo for it then got intrigued and wanted to see more, so he clicked a newer video. I recall the mixed like of shock, disbelief, and faint horror on his face as we both began to watch it unfold, the people in the video were two women. This was my first time seeing it too so we just both watch stunned as they beat, push their heads down into puddles of water, pulled their hair, and smeared red paint all over their face before the actors posed for a photo on top of this large pipe that the girls were inside of with their heads held up by their hair that the actors on top were purposefully stepping on. They both look like they were fading in and out of consciousness and their faces were swollen. I think about that all the time and one more video. One of the few blogs that-that weirdo did that wasn’t about the haunted house. It was him walking around a horror convention, with majority of the people there he acted normal with , but then it cuts to these 2 young women (not the women in the last video mentions) talking, being friendly , upbeat and pretty sure at least one of them knew about the manor and mentioned maybe trying it. But dude takes this very creepy and weird tone where he talks about her hair and you can almost hear him getting a bit to excited about the idea of the things he was going to do to her hair. I’ve never heard someone so excited about doing stuff to destroy someone’s hair. That’s was the second last videos I’d seen in passing , the last being the other two women basically getting jumped in the forest. It sent shivers down my spine and now to see it come back around full circle to my mind in response to this terrible news. I’m really shocked he was not arrested sooner.
This is how it was for me. Had this small obsession with McKamey Manor in high school, then I saw a video from one of the survivors talking about their experiences, how they were in therapy for PTSD and anxiety, as well as physical therapy and had chronic pain because of what happened. It was horrific, and a sobering wakeup call to me about what the "haunt" and Russ McKamey was really like. Saw a sleezey comment awhile ago on a Halloween haunted house video and they had a segment about McKamey Manor. The comment or was mocking the victims who went through everything, calling them slurs and saying they could win the "money". My faith in humanity was restored when I saw everyone in the comments tearing that jerk a new asshole.
😂😂 I have a story about Russ!!!! Highlight of my haunt career About 6 years ago now, he came through Exit 13 in Michigan. I was an actor there. We offered an “extreme night” not like Russ’s haunt though. But we did tie people up, they got covered in fake blood, and we fed them edible but weird things. We also have a safe word, but we would be good noodles and if someone used it, we stopped and let them out. Well Russ decided to make a trip out to see us. He made it to exactly the middle. Which so happened to be the room I was working in. I was feeding people melted no bake cookies. THIS MAN WAS LIVIED because I wouldn’t let him leave my room until he ate it. The guy in the room before me had a chainsaw and heard the commotion coming from Russ. He came in ripped the chainsaw, and Russ, HE USED THE DANG SAFE WORD. And then was pissed when he was escorted out and told he legally could not finish going through 😂😂😂😂 biggest narcissist in the world.
Truly horrific what some people are willing to experience for a thrill. Glad Russ is finally behind bars, because this isn't a haunted house, it's torture.
Big Russ: *hands $1.5B* "alr bet here. And dont forget the before and after vlog of ur horrifying nightmare fuel" 🫳💸💰 (Films himself laughing to get the thrill seekers content up)
He tried to set up in my home town out in the middle of nowhere southern Illinois we ran him out by taunting him and breaking his props and windows and threatening him if he starts sitting up they were ganna hurt him
There’s a difference between a “haunted house” and “creepy backwoods hicks living out their torture fetishes” • • • 3.7k likes and Papa hasn’t noticed me :( definitely seems like he controls fire or something 😢
as a seagoing man, lots of the stuff listed in the waiver is exactly what's prohibited by the military's anti-hazing policy which is referenced ad nauseum during line crossing/initiation ceremonies. Obviously this guy served way back in the day but I can't help but feel it's weirdos like this that are responsible for these strict rules being placed because they can't keep it under control and above board
Yeah even back in the day I doubt that the marines went as far as he does as he doesn't care about causing permanent physical injury. He is just a sadistic psychopath who enjoys torturing and assaulting people in extreme ways. He would have killed people by now if he could get away with it.
He got psyop training for whatever his pansy MOS was. Dude probably had in Intel job or something and sat behind a desk his whole enlistment or commission. The military looks for these types of people for postions of power; easy manipulated, cowardly and weak minded, willing to commit unspeakable acts and get pleasure for said acts, complete lack of moral character, willing to lie and blackmail people, lets power go to their head and values a security clearance over human life etc. etc. He's everything the military uses as criteria for selecting officers in general to be perfectly honest, there's thousands of carbon copies of this guy making decisions for tens of thousands of enlisted servicemen every day. Also hazing never stopped it just got tailored towards the psychological to not leave visible scars, I did 5 years in the Marine Corps from 2013 to 2018 I saw some heinous stuff if anything it's gotten way more unhinged and put of control then it was in the 80s and 90s nothing is above board about the US military lmao.
Dead set legendary work. The comments know and credit you for all the hard work, but farrrk i wanna say thankyou so much (also danny and the crew). The commitment to getting justice while hilariously flipping the script on Russ was incredible to watch, truly inspiring, stay reckless Ben and hope to see more from you and the team.
It's legal because basically the people that are subjecting themselves to the McKamey program, or whatever you want to call it, they're doing so voluntarily.
@@ObviousAshleyy Not really, they didn't have a lawyer write up the document, so someone could definitely pick apart the document since they just used their own phrasing which could be argued to be vague, or not expressed properly. To top it all off a lot of people that were tortured said certain things weren't in the waiver.
we learned this in beauty school. we always had clients sign a waiver stating they knew people working on them were students, basically implying if we messed you up, you couldn't sue. The teachers even taught us that is was pure security theater.
I hope Reckless Ben is mentioned in this as much as he deserves for his work covering and clowning on McKamey Manor. Edit: alright I watched the whole thing and there is a ton that was left out. McKamey Manor is NOT a real place, for example Russ claims to have the worlds longest zip-line (several km long), a maze you have to army crawl through that’s full of thousands of rats, an underground tunnel swim that’s 100m long, and tons more that “nobody has made it far enough to see.” Also the sadomasochist side of Russ was downplayed in this as well, there was a dude who he dragged by a rope from the back of his truck through a gravel pit until all the skin peeled off his back. Check out the Reckless Ben series, it’s way more dark and twisted than you could imagine and I didn’t even talk about the hard drive hunt.
I’m only halfway through and he was mentioned briefly but I’ll be pretty disappointed if he doesn’t talk about the whole lost incriminating hard drive saga.
The only surprising part about all of this is that Russ had a girlfriend to begin with. Although for some reason a lot of girls are attracted to psychopaths and serial killers. And I’m not one of those dudes that cries about women being attracted to “bad boys”. I’m just actually surprised because he’s not even a good looking dude
I did a Blackout extreme haunted house event back in 2013 and it was horrific. That had a working safe word and no actual danger. McKamey Manor had always been portrayed like the “final boss” of extreme haunts, so watching Reckless Ben completely debunk and destroy the whole operation was really satisfying.
After watching some of the videos of McKamey Manor, I can't shake the feeling that I'd instinctively want to fight back against the way they treat their so-called "customers." It’s not something I’d plan to do, but there’s this overwhelming urge that kicks in, this inner voice screaming to defend yourself. Seeing the way they push people to their limits, my gut reaction is to think, "You need to fight back." It seems like they specifically target people who are more submissive, and it makes me wonder how they pick their participants. If I mentioned that I used to box when I was younger, would that immediately disqualify me? It’s like they’re deliberately avoiding anyone who might resist, which raises a lot of questions about how they select their victims.
I had a mentally ill roommate in college that was totally obsessed with this place. When i told him it isn't scary, just disgusting; he went nuts on me lmao.
I'm surprised he wasn't already using the "haunted house" for it, but also glad that those poor people had one less horrific thing happen to them. It makes me sad enough to see what they've already been through
@@BarbieDreamDungeonI think its possible that it did unfortunately. there were some rumors of it and things that sort of hinted to it. There's that undertone in most of his videos as it is
Here's what I've gleaned from 2yrs of checking into McKamey Manor "lore" and recent exposes by Reckless Ben: started out as relatively fun / harmless "home haunt" in early 2000s San Diego, eventually become an extreme haunt where some issues cropped up of ppl being harmed and that shut down his new structure near a horse ranch where he was a long-time wedding singer. He got by on Navy Recruiter Pension, side singing gig, but mainly relied on whatever wife he had at the time, so when California shut him down, he went to Tennessee in summer 2017. A good documentary called "The Art of The Scare" came out that year, and it's pretty good because it shows Russ but also how Blackout and other scare actors and haunt owners feel about Russ and his lack of safe word and more torture focus, as opposed to scaring and creatively finding ways to induce fear. But McKamey Manor got extreme in TN, with Russ recording atrocities (like dragging a guy across grass, then concrete, then grass, then more concrete for about 1/2 mile, then waterboarding him in the dirty water in a freezer, amidst other things --- which led to the guy being bedridden for 2 weeks and treated by a slew of antibiotics!!), but he chooses what his cult of followers see, like the "end review" where sometimes, these ppl are held captive until Russ can get a good "It's all great, no lawsuit here! Haha, happy times" as way to prove *consent* knowing that angry ppl who were were hurt bad enough will go to police. That's why no charges were ever brought against Russ (think of Wade Wilson filming the r*pe of a woman on her own phone, then claiming it was consensual and being acquitted). Very manipulative stuff, and no, I'm not calling Russ a serial killer/rapist, but, ironically, he's in jail for some bad stuff with a former GF. It seems like after the actors left, Russ thought it was a good idea to continue his shit show, altho solo, and that's where you see the bizarre barrel exercises and crab walking. Thank goodness for tenacious UA-camrs to get their hands on some of the most vile things Russ has done to ppl, which, tho slow-going, means that the state of Tennessee is finally investigating the crazy stuff that Russ has done to ppl in the name of "an extreme haunt." I highly recommend the Wendigoon video (altho its from 2022 and his opinion is likely not what audiences want to hear in Aug. 2024, its still informative and I love Wendigoon), The Art of The Scare, the videos by Reckless Ben and Danny Berk, and one last video by a female UA-camr I'd never watched before (she's blonde, likes cats, was in a band). I'll look it up and add as a reply later. Basically, the story of Russ McKamey and his evolution of haunts is something so crazy, it seems like a well-written but disturbing novel of an antihero who descends deeper into madness and never redeems himself.
Imagine being Russ trying to get a lawyer for his case: “I need to prove that I would never purposely harm someone within reach of them dying, btw I have 100s of hours of me doing that on my public youtube that has my name on it, I am known nationally for it, and I’m laughing in every video” Go over about as well as Boogie doing that job interview lol
Fun fact: the manor in fact does exist. I’ve been there…basically it’s at Russ’s house and you have to rub baby oil on his chest while he’s sprawled out on his velour bed spread while R Kelly’s bump and grind plays in the background at obnoxious volumes. RUSS CALL ME BACK I MISS YOU DADDY!
@@BarbieDreamDungeonSeriously! Like, are you lying on purpose or just delusional? Everyone knows you are just desperate for attention and are exaggerating A LOT. Who would believe this? Nobody.
Looking at the waiver, it literally says that you might be buried alive under 12 feet of dirt and rock, with a limited amount of air and will have to figure out how to escape. Yeah, nah.
I’m a haunt owner/actor 0:26. This past march, at a huge haunters convention, I met him there. He asked our group (3 of us) to take a picture, I said no but one of them took a pic with him. So disturbing learning this.
I was right there watching the uploads from Reckless Ben in real time as he was taking this dude down. I’m so glad to see justice is finally happening!
“You know it’s not real, right?” What’s not real, exactly? They’re actively being beaten, force fed, water boarded, suffocated, etc. What exactly is not real about this? I mean, they’re *probably* not going to die, I guess. But the torture is very real.
“You know it’s not real, right?” My brother in Christ this is just illegal torture sessions With HORROR tapes into it You BEAT YOUR WIFE I’m pretty sure it’s FR Fr!!!!! 😨

After doing digging with the videos released. Not only did he literally ruin a man’s life because of a hard drive. The girl Caedis Silvis, at 26:52 was told that she was just going to do a promo video for his channel, just to go through it for real, & when she thought it was done, he found her and then his goons brought her back to that place to do it *again* because he stated that “the experience wasn’t over”.

8 yr haunt veteran, can also confirm. We do not claim him, nor have ever claimed him! We say the same, he *is not running a haunt*, its just a torture chamber.
Thank you Papa for explaining the depths of this world that most of us have no idea about, since we are sane people. Extremely disturbing people like this exist
Mckamey: “I’m gonna make a torture chamber for my own personal pleasure and call it a haunted house so I can get away with it!” Tennessee police: 🧑🏻🦯🧑🏻🦯
Reckless Ben did a series about shutting them down. Long story short, was a standard "boo" haunt till he lost all his props due to divorce followed by not having storeage followed by rain. After that it's a torture chamber where you can't win, because he'll dround you before paying you
An old freind of mine fucking loves this guy. He had his dvd just by the tv at all times. Dude had issues, i told him i was uncomfortable watchig it and he said "thats the point, isnt it fun" maybe not that exactly, its been a few years
I would love to see an animation of McKamey Manor and someone gets to the last part that’s the Manor and all the final items are bland items that people can’t stand like waiting at the DMV or suffering through some families crappy kids at a dinner in a restaurant
Using physical violence or threats of violence to force participants to sign VOIDS the waiver in any court of law, leaving them open for civil and criminal lawsuits.

Guys, he isn't a journalist. He's reacting and commenting on things he discovers. It's an entertaining intro to topics some of are unaware of, and then can go down the rabbit hole if they wish. I wouldn't be so hard on hunter for not covering every detail of this absolutely insane thing
Dude you so seriously understate the extent of this guys crimes. There's many videos of people outright begging to be let go and saying they quit and he goes right back to drowning and burying them.
The best haunted house was a bog standard midwest haunted barn experience i had with a bunch of the typical jump scares. But the real kicker was them hiring Kane goddamn Hodder to chase people with a chainsaw out into the parking lot.
Shouldn’t comment on people’s bodies, even if it’s positive. You don’t know how it will affect them. I recently lost a ton of weight. Why? A health issue and lack of money for food. I know you meant well but it’s often not a positive thing. Maybe it is positive for him, but we don’t know. It’s too touchy a subject, especially when the comment is about weight.
Its clear to me that if this man was sane then the safe word would have been there from the start, there would be medical staff and care would be taken to allow people to quit at any point. However it is painfully obvious that this man is psychologically disturbed, it's incredibly likely that the whole thing was just for him to enjoy the sadistic power trip of being able to harm people without the fear of being arrested. The thing is the fact that he went after his girlfriend and went over that line makes me think that the haunted house either wasn't working as well for him to scratch the itch, or it could be a cover up for others he has abused/murdered. Not 100% sure he doesn't seem all that smart, so who knows.
NGL big meat, as a vet I suffer from crippling anxiety. And I’ve seen the main channel vids and it isn’t for me but that’s okay. You bring the funny to spooky. Papa Meat is the channel for me :) Edit: as a Vet, why tf they activating my MK Ultra in a spooky house?
Lmao I live in west tennessee and if I saw this dude at my local Wally World I think I would shit my pants in excitement.. good or bad excitement I’m not sure 😂
I hated hearing them say "It's not real, you know it's not real right?" because it IS real. They really ARE putting her through all the things they're doing to her - the only thing you could possibly say isn't "real" is the intent to kill but I don't even know if THAT'S appropriate to say because it very much seems to me they could so easily kill someone given the lack of medical staff and the danger/severity of their actions. If you have someone falling in and out of consciousness and you're just ignoring that giant red flag as to the person's safety, then "intent to kill" doesn't seem all that different from a total lack of concern whether the person dies.
Thing is, the Cenobites are torturing you to get you to enjoy pain. They are like BDSM fetishists with no boundaries, but they are doing what they do for what they see as your benefit. Russ would probably kick you out if you were a masochist because it's not about your experience as much as it is about his power fantasy.
I read the waiver and this dude straight up put that participants understand that they may be buried 12 feet underground and that if they die, its their fault for not breathing properly/not holding their breath at the right time 😐
4:25 all jokes aside - imagine you're an attacking vessel, you board your enemy, and the whole ship looks like a horror movie scene. the deck is splattered with blood, used ammunition and bisected corpses everywhere. The sleeping quarters look like torture rooms, the brig looks like kidnapper dungeon, the sick bay looks like broken down hospital operating rooms like some silent hill shit.
@@cosmonaut6810 I was more talking about a crew of a few people seeing an abandoned ship and boarding it and seeing all of the horror. Submarine wouldn’t really work with the idea I was going for, but the idea of a submarine horror game is awesome
I used to live around the corner from him back when he was in rancho penasquitos! It would be 2 am and you’d have neighbors running down the street screaming beimg chased by chainsaw wielding psychos. We tried for years to get rid of him and he just took it somewhere else. He gave the whole neighborhood lice once, he’d put a bag on your head and not wash them. He’d record people going thru for his own personal pleasure. He also ran a simulated kidnapping experience where you could sign yourself or someone else up, and russ and a group of guys would pull up in a van, any where at any time ! He was so gross, and just every red flag in a human being russ was. Hope he rots in prison
every day im haunted by the fact that this dude fled California and moved tragically close to where i live and i just have to carry the burden of knowing i could see him at walmart
I’m a scare actor (see pfp), a horror movie lover and haunted house enthusiast. I cannot even do Ohio’s Haunted Hoochie and fell down the rabbit hole of McKamey Manor when my parents talked about it a few years back. This dude is literally insane and has tried multiple times to come after people in the FaceBook group I’m in ‘exposing’ him. It’s so insane that a person can be THIS demented.
The other scary part is that he is definitely selling footage and trophies (there is reason why they shave hair, pull teeth, etc) to people on the dark web. He has probably made untold millions.
29:32 that image implies that is the girlfriend he assaulted but that is not her, she is actually only like 19 years old. I thought the age gap relationship was significant
My dad was in the navy in the early 80's, and he said back then there was an initiation for new sailors whenever they crossed the equator. Basically it was the kind of torture this guy does, minus any animals (obviously). A long tube he had to crawl through filled with sewage, and the further back in the line you started the worse it was because of how many guys threw up on their way through. he also had to crawl between the legs of other senior sailors while they whipped him with belts, shoes, etc. I don't remember everything he said he had to endure, but he's a pretty tough guy, and has seen men die overseas, yet this ritual was one of the worst experiences of his life. Actual psychological torture. Ironically the ritual was banned when women were allowed to join the navy soon after. It makes me wonder if this is the sort of thing that inspired this guy to have people pay to be tortured in a similar way.
we had a haunted house around the corner, but it was haunted in a different way. we all heard the horror story, a group of girls took a boy there thinking he was gonna get lucky, but they pegged him in the abandon house.

Refering to Mckamey Manor as "the World's Most Blank Haunted House" is major clickbait *AND* it BENEFITS Mckamey and his Manor!! Shame on you Thiccboi!!! I knew you had very low morals and almost zero ethics but jfc this is just too much. Clickbait is already annoying and problematic, but calling that place anything but a pervert's manipulative assault grounds is disgusting dude. I personally have watched quit a few videos on Mckamey Manor and those videos proved that Mckameys claim of "World's Most Blank" was completely fraudulent and actually a part of their advertising and manipulative schemes. Their claim of "27,000 people on the wait list" was also proven false.
Meat Tubs, you're so disconnected from the viewer and apparently so greedy to the point of helping a seggs predator (Mckamey) gain more notoriety, fame, and exposure. I cannot in good faith follow you. Severely disappointment in your piss poor judgement and complete lack of care towards giving predators more exposure and engagement.

Do you take the piss out of your sponsors or is that your naturally goofy self lol.

I was gonna say this is literally SAW without that “moral improval” that Jigsaw had cause he’s at least torturing people “to better them into stronger and proper members of society”. Which is still fucked but ya know, it’s a movie and plot stuff.
This dude on the other hand just does it for fun and isn’t even trying to hide or disguise it in any way.
The fact that he literally said he doesn't want people that fight back is absolutely insane now that he has been charged with attempted murder and rape. He is a predator in every sense of the word...
Good question. One of his videos he admits that 3 people have died. I never saw anything about those people. I thought that was odd 3 people die and the only mention is in a random conversation. So ya more needs to be discovered about this guy. Let's see how his domestic arrest pans out.
@@victoriaimdahl6058I don’t think anyone actually died there. I believer that was just for shock value. The same way he says there’s a “years long” wait list, there isn’t. That’s just bait to get people to sign up
@@victoriaimdahl6058 highly likely that it was just said for shock value
I was wondering when Hunter mentioned that its streamed and ppl put money on it to request things, and with how many female victims there seem to be, if he'd ever sexually assaulted someone in the "experience." Not necessarily outright rape, but sexual violence where attacks might be aimed at genitals or breasts or smth. Now that he's been accused of rape, it's entirely possible
@victoriaimdahl6058 apparently there are no documented deaths in the house. They likely couldn't even get away with accidental murders bc ppl would be reported as missing and such. Itd only be possible if they selected ppl with no friends or family, but even then idk.
So I think he was just saying that for shock, but who knows
Him canceling the challenge when the contestants keep saying theyre fine should be illegal. That's like telling someone they can't win the lottery even if their ticket matches up perfectly.
Him operating without medical personnel should be illegal.
That actually does happen a lot at casinos if you hit a jackpot, they’ll say the machine broke and go 🤷🏿♀️ and give you a buffet coupon. 😂
it's because he probably doesn't have the cash prize so he cancels the challenge as long as he gets something out of torturing people
It’s also most likely illegal for him to torture the people before they even sign the waiver, or to pressure them into signing the waiver. Lots of legal red flags here, despite his insistence that he’s covered
@@mattlovelace91isnt that illegal ? Im sure it happen i just wanna know
Years ago, I met Russ McKamey at the Halloween convention Scare LA (now, Midsummer Scream). No shit, he was one of the most unhinged and freakiest people I’ve ever met in my life. What got me was during the panel he was a part of, he kept insisting that his “haunt” is family friendly and they don’t even allow cursing.
Another Haunter on the panel named Don Julson (Haunter out of Orange County, CA) got into it with him saying that he’s a sadist who gets off on people who he tricks into being trapped in his haunt. Russ challenged him to go through it to see for himself, and Don said he’d do it if Russ did it with him. Russ declined saying that his haunt is for “younger people” and that he’s an old man, drawing A LOT of boos from the audience, causing him to lash out.
I've watched the livestreams he's had before, it's a common rule not to cuss haha
@@dubstepsquid31 The irony of him not allowing cussing kills me with all shit he puts people through, then has the audacity to say he’s “family friendly”. Lol

As a resident of Summertown, Tennessee.. there is no manor. It’s his barn.
And his past wife, Carrol, said he's hygienically gross. Never showers, brushes teeth, etc. He's never been attractive, yet his "charisma" and weird little house, suck in a few younger women. I don't get it.
He was a big stain on the summertown name nobody really cared for him I met him a couple times and he was always awkward to be around
Aren't the police corrupt there and refuse to do anything about this guy....?
The waiver, for those that don't look it up, even includes not holding them accountable for death, drowning, suffocation, tooth extraction, stabbing, carbon monoxide poisoning, aneurysms, and you can't quit unless THEY think you've suffered major psychological or physical trauma. Edit to add: Yes, I'm aware that a waiver likely isn't valid in a court of law, mentioning this is more so to highlight how absolutely delusional and twisted the man is to think he could ever get away with this sort of thing with a waiver.
A former Marine did come close to winning, like right at the end, and when they wanted to keep going to win Russ refused and said they weren't fit to continue. He just wants an excuse to torture people, there likely wasn't ever an actual, tangible reward aside from getting mutilated within an inch of your life.
I'm really sad to learn he had the opportunity to get his hands on a poor woman who likely thought he was a nice fella. Dude is a manipulative, sick liar and only lets on what he wants people to see. Russ shouldn't be permitted to exist amongst the general populance, especially not in that way as he is DEFINITELY the type of person to take things too far and accidentally kill someone. He doesn't know when to stop, even if torture is someone's kink, he doesn't know what's too much and will kill someone. Or maybe he does and he just doesn't care.
Sincerely hope such a sick individual is left to rot in prison.
idk about anything else but death i dont see that holding up in court maybe at an amusement park where it was an accident with no negligence but in this situation they are actively trying to get you as close to death as they can, and from the charges hes caught id say they want to kill their participants but know if they do then they cant continue their venture.

Yet another shoutout to Reckless Ben. He’s done a ton of investigative journalism whilst still giving off the vibe of stoner bro, but he’s incredibly talented too. From infiltrating talent shows, to Scientology, to twelve tribes, and McKamey Manor was just another notch on the belt.
There isn’t a 10,000 person waitlist. Heck, there isn’t even a 10 person waitlist. Reckless Ben signed up and got approved in the same day. He exposed Russ as a fraud, and helped lead to his arrest.
he had a few people sign up after him and they all got accepted right away too
Ben had nothing to do with his arrest. Russ was arrested recently for something he did recently to his gf. Nothing related to ben or the haunted house
A man of culture. Reckless ben is the shit, sadly he's been silent on everything for some months now. It's probably related, since he got the police to start looking into him. This gf stuff is just the foot in the door, he's gonna get crucified
Heard somewhere on the internet that some guy knew a friend who has this medical condition where they couldn’t feel pain so he tried to get his friend there to get the money prize. Turns out as soon as the ‘attraction’ owner found out about the guys condition they became immediately uninterested in them and they practically got ghosted. This guy is a sadistic freak and doesn’t care about you..
Imagining someone going through all this constant torment for hours on end only to then smugly say straight to McKamey's face "Didn't hurt lol" is so funny.
Bro was too scared have his torture puppetmaster fetish get blueballed.
Anyone who sets this kind of thing up doesn't care about people. Sadist.
I'm not sure about that story. It's a bit sus.
People with that sort of condition actually have to be really careful about things that may harm them. They don't have pain as a warning that something is physically harming them and so can quickly end up with complications.
In fairness that is a liability. The guy could be bleeding and not notice. An example would be a case study where a DM (diabetes) patient's dog ate/chewed her big toe and she only noticed it in the morning prompting a long medical journey. ( Alot of medication to prevent infection plus amputation)
@@rukiapyonpyon Russ dragged a guy behind a truck down a gravel road, then waterboarded him in dirty water to punish the guy for crying. The guy spent significant time in the hospital after that. Russ didn’t get in any trouble for that, he doesn’t care about harming anyone or killing them.
my cousin and i signed up years ago when it was still in Cali; we never got a response but we were certain that we could beat it. Refound him a couple years ago and found out that he doesn't let anyone win, he can medically call it off whenever he wants whenever someone does too good.
The fact that Russ "won't be selecting" the people who will stand up for themselves really shows his true colors...
the document definitely wouldn't hold up in court. you cant just make a document saying you're allowed to break the law. assault is still assault even if they gave you permission to do it. any illegal substances used, are still illegal. any bodily harm caused, is still prosecutable if charges are pressed and pursued. its like assisted suicide. just because someone says they want to die, doesn't mean you're allowed to kill them.
Careful, he'll just movie to Canada.
You're literally going there to be assaulted that's like trying to sue because you got punched in boxing
@@boinkmcbingo8890boxing is a career, this is torture 😐
@@boinkmcbingo8890 physical assault is a crime. You can not cause notable bodily harm to other people. It will not be the victim, the state will come after you because you just committed a crime. You cannot make a document, that says you're allowed to break the law. Boxing (among other sports) is one of the very few exceptions to that law. You, as a normal person, cannot just go attack other people, even if they agree to you doing it.
A sport like boxing is a little different then being tied up and tortured, there are some things that you legally cannot consent to. No waiver would hold up if someone beat the shit out of you and breaks your jaw. Waivers typically cover potential harm as a consequence of an activity, not consent to DIRECT extreme bodily harm. There's a level of force and harm that exceeds your ability to consent. Unlicensed boxing for example is illegal.
TL: DR: I remember being obsessed with MckAmey Manor at a point in time in middle school when it was still a haunted house. But as soon as I reached high school me and my friend looked them up to see if their was more to it and were horrified to watch a long video of his actors basically jumping two women that looked like they were going in and out of consciousness and I stopped looking to anything more about them until this very video.
I remember finding out about MckAmey Manor in middle school. I used to think it was so cool because not only did they donate (Or at least I thought b/c I’ve heard apparently he doesn’t even donate it, just gives it to his dogs) to a charity that saves race dogs, but the videos I seen way back then was like your typical haunted house, but the could pick you up and stuff (what got my attention was a clip that showed them grabbing someone and pulling them under a couch) I was fascinated with the place for a long time. But as years passed I noticed how ‘physical’ the actors got and how the disturbing the videos started to feel. (Like the ‘code names’ he gave to each video based on the person being tortured, or how they’d cut parts of the videos then cut back to people in clear intense distress and begging for it to end just for him to laugh, say no ,then cut back again.) But then I remember mentioning it to a friend about how intense I thought this specific haunted house was. He looked it up to see the promo for it then got intrigued and wanted to see more, so he clicked a newer video. I recall the mixed like of shock, disbelief, and faint horror on his face as we both began to watch it unfold, the people in the video were two women. This was my first time seeing it too so we just both watch stunned as they beat, push their heads down into puddles of water, pulled their hair, and smeared red paint all over their face before the actors posed for a photo on top of this large pipe that the girls were inside of with their heads held up by their hair that the actors on top were purposefully stepping on. They both look like they were fading in and out of consciousness and their faces were swollen. I think about that all the time and one more video. One of the few blogs that-that weirdo did that wasn’t about the haunted house. It was him walking around a horror convention, with majority of the people there he acted normal with , but then it cuts to these 2 young women (not the women in the last video mentions) talking, being friendly , upbeat and pretty sure at least one of them knew about the manor and mentioned maybe trying it. But dude takes this very creepy and weird tone where he talks about her hair and you can almost hear him getting a bit to excited about the idea of the things he was going to do to her hair. I’ve never heard someone so excited about doing stuff to destroy someone’s hair. That’s was the second last videos I’d seen in passing , the last being the other two women basically getting jumped in the forest. It sent shivers down my spine and now to see it come back around full circle to my mind in response to this terrible news. I’m really shocked he was not arrested sooner.
This is how it was for me. Had this small obsession with McKamey Manor in high school, then I saw a video from one of the survivors talking about their experiences, how they were in therapy for PTSD and anxiety, as well as physical therapy and had chronic pain because of what happened. It was horrific, and a sobering wakeup call to me about what the "haunt" and Russ McKamey was really like.
Saw a sleezey comment awhile ago on a Halloween haunted house video and they had a segment about McKamey Manor. The comment or was mocking the victims who went through everything, calling them slurs and saying they could win the "money". My faith in humanity was restored when I saw everyone in the comments tearing that jerk a new asshole.

😂😂 I have a story about Russ!!!! Highlight of my haunt career
About 6 years ago now, he came through Exit 13 in Michigan. I was an actor there. We offered an “extreme night” not like Russ’s haunt though. But we did tie people up, they got covered in fake blood, and we fed them edible but weird things. We also have a safe word, but we would be good noodles and if someone used it, we stopped and let them out.
Well Russ decided to make a trip out to see us. He made it to exactly the middle. Which so happened to be the room I was working in. I was feeding people melted no bake cookies. THIS MAN WAS LIVIED because I wouldn’t let him leave my room until he ate it. The guy in the room before me had a chainsaw and heard the commotion coming from Russ. He came in ripped the chainsaw, and Russ, HE USED THE DANG SAFE WORD. And then was pissed when he was escorted out and told he legally could not finish going through 😂😂😂😂 biggest narcissist in the world.
Wow, wish I was surprised. This dude belongs in an asylum, even better prison at this point. What a loser freak.

Either way, you'll hear a lot of groaning from a long distance away.
as a seagoing man, lots of the stuff listed in the waiver is exactly what's prohibited by the military's anti-hazing policy which is referenced ad nauseum during line crossing/initiation ceremonies. Obviously this guy served way back in the day but I can't help but feel it's weirdos like this that are responsible for these strict rules being placed because they can't keep it under control and above board
Yeah even back in the day I doubt that the marines went as far as he does as he doesn't care about causing permanent physical injury. He is just a sadistic psychopath who enjoys torturing and assaulting people in extreme ways. He would have killed people by now if he could get away with it.
Hazing is objectively bad.
He got psyop training for whatever his pansy MOS was.
Dude probably had in Intel job or something and sat behind a desk his whole enlistment or commission.
The military looks for these types of people for postions of power; easy manipulated, cowardly and weak minded, willing to commit unspeakable acts and get pleasure for said acts, complete lack of moral character, willing to lie and blackmail people, lets power go to their head and values a security clearance over human life etc. etc.
He's everything the military uses as criteria for selecting officers in general to be perfectly honest, there's thousands of carbon copies of this guy making decisions for tens of thousands of enlisted servicemen every day.
Also hazing never stopped it just got tailored towards the psychological to not leave visible scars, I did 5 years in the Marine Corps from 2013 to 2018 I saw some heinous stuff if anything it's gotten way more unhinged and put of control then it was in the 80s and 90s nothing is above board about the US military lmao.

Reckless Ben has a series on messing with Russ and the manor. It’s so good.
Fun Fact: Waivers of any kind almost never hold water in actual litigation
Yeah, but dumb people are dumb , unfortunately. How would they know ?
It's legal because basically the people that are subjecting themselves to the McKamey program, or whatever you want to call it, they're doing so voluntarily.
@@ObviousAshleyy Not really, they didn't have a lawyer write up the document, so someone could definitely pick apart the document since they just used their own phrasing which could be argued to be vague, or not expressed properly. To top it all off a lot of people that were tortured said certain things weren't in the waiver.
we learned this in beauty school. we always had clients sign a waiver stating they knew people working on them were students, basically implying if we messed you up, you couldn't sue. The teachers even taught us that is was pure security theater.
I hope Reckless Ben is mentioned in this as much as he deserves for his work covering and clowning on McKamey Manor.
Edit: alright I watched the whole thing and there is a ton that was left out. McKamey Manor is NOT a real place, for example Russ claims to have the worlds longest zip-line (several km long), a maze you have to army crawl through that’s full of thousands of rats, an underground tunnel swim that’s 100m long, and tons more that “nobody has made it far enough to see.” Also the sadomasochist side of Russ was downplayed in this as well, there was a dude who he dragged by a rope from the back of his truck through a gravel pit until all the skin peeled off his back. Check out the Reckless Ben series, it’s way more dark and twisted than you could imagine and I didn’t even talk about the hard drive hunt.
Yes! 100%
Absolutely!!! Ben’s the best
Thats why i clicked, im hoping hunter breaks down all hes done so far
Ya I hope so to
I’m only halfway through and he was mentioned briefly but I’ll be pretty disappointed if he doesn’t talk about the whole lost incriminating hard drive saga.
The only surprising part about all of this is that Russ had a girlfriend to begin with. Although for some reason a lot of girls are attracted to psychopaths and serial killers.
And I’m not one of those dudes that cries about women being attracted to “bad boys”.
I’m just actually surprised because he’s not even a good looking dude
People like this tend to be really good at manipulation, I'm sure he hid his true colours initally
right, shes pretty too, like does she even know??
"A lot of girls"
Um no, it's a small minority of morons. The average woman is not attracted to this mess.
I did a Blackout extreme haunted house event back in 2013 and it was horrific. That had a working safe word and no actual danger. McKamey Manor had always been portrayed like the “final boss” of extreme haunts, so watching Reckless Ben completely debunk and destroy the whole operation was really satisfying.
14:34 Nick casually telling Hunter that he was assaulted as a child and Hunter being like 😶 killed me 😆
Nick lore goes Deeeep
I think he was saying he was older and they kidnapped him and dropped him off at an elementary school in his underwear
After watching some of the videos of McKamey Manor, I can't shake the feeling that I'd instinctively want to fight back against the way they treat their so-called "customers." It’s not something I’d plan to do, but there’s this overwhelming urge that kicks in, this inner voice screaming to defend yourself. Seeing the way they push people to their limits, my gut reaction is to think, "You need to fight back."
It seems like they specifically target people who are more submissive, and it makes me wonder how they pick their participants. If I mentioned that I used to box when I was younger, would that immediately disqualify me? It’s like they’re deliberately avoiding anyone who might resist, which raises a lot of questions about how they select their victims.
I had a mentally ill roommate in college that was totally obsessed with this place. When i told him it isn't scary, just disgusting; he went nuts on me lmao.

I'm surprised he wasn't already using the "haunted house" for it, but also glad that those poor people had one less horrific thing happen to them. It makes me sad enough to see what they've already been through
@@BarbieDreamDungeonI think its possible that it did unfortunately. there were some rumors of it and things that sort of hinted to it. There's that undertone in most of his videos as it is
@@starfiresreign I hope those people are ok now :(
@@BarbieDreamDungeon trauma is a rough thing but I'm sure seeing Russ finally arrested gave 5 seconds of relief
Here's what I've gleaned from 2yrs of checking into McKamey Manor "lore" and recent exposes by Reckless Ben: started out as relatively fun / harmless "home haunt" in early 2000s San Diego, eventually become an extreme haunt where some issues cropped up of ppl being harmed and that shut down his new structure near a horse ranch where he was a long-time wedding singer. He got by on Navy Recruiter Pension, side singing gig, but mainly relied on whatever wife he had at the time, so when California shut him down, he went to Tennessee in summer 2017. A good documentary called "The Art of The Scare" came out that year, and it's pretty good because it shows Russ but also how Blackout and other scare actors and haunt owners feel about Russ and his lack of safe word and more torture focus, as opposed to scaring and creatively finding ways to induce fear. But McKamey Manor got extreme in TN, with Russ recording atrocities (like dragging a guy across grass, then concrete, then grass, then more concrete for about 1/2 mile, then waterboarding him in the dirty water in a freezer, amidst other things --- which led to the guy being bedridden for 2 weeks and treated by a slew of antibiotics!!), but he chooses what his cult of followers see, like the "end review" where sometimes, these ppl are held captive until Russ can get a good "It's all great, no lawsuit here! Haha, happy times" as way to prove *consent* knowing that angry ppl who were were hurt bad enough will go to police. That's why no charges were ever brought against Russ (think of Wade Wilson filming the r*pe of a woman on her own phone, then claiming it was consensual and being acquitted). Very manipulative stuff, and no, I'm not calling Russ a serial killer/rapist, but, ironically, he's in jail for some bad stuff with a former GF. It seems like after the actors left, Russ thought it was a good idea to continue his shit show, altho solo, and that's where you see the bizarre barrel exercises and crab walking. Thank goodness for tenacious UA-camrs to get their hands on some of the most vile things Russ has done to ppl, which, tho slow-going, means that the state of Tennessee is finally investigating the crazy stuff that Russ has done to ppl in the name of "an extreme haunt."
I highly recommend the Wendigoon video (altho its from 2022 and his opinion is likely not what audiences want to hear in Aug. 2024, its still informative and I love Wendigoon), The Art of The Scare, the videos by Reckless Ben and Danny Berk, and one last video by a female UA-camr I'd never watched before (she's blonde, likes cats, was in a band). I'll look it up and add as a reply later.
Basically, the story of Russ McKamey and his evolution of haunts is something so crazy, it seems like a well-written but disturbing novel of an antihero who descends deeper into madness and never redeems himself.
He physically hurts ppl so much they never reach the fake manner, he wont allow it, keep adding new tortures
Imagine being Russ trying to get a lawyer for his case: “I need to prove that I would never purposely harm someone within reach of them dying, btw I have 100s of hours of me doing that on my public youtube that has my name on it, I am known nationally for it, and I’m laughing in every video”
Go over about as well as Boogie doing that job interview lol
Fun fact: the manor in fact does exist. I’ve been there…basically it’s at Russ’s house and you have to rub baby oil on his chest while he’s sprawled out on his velour bed spread while R Kelly’s bump and grind plays in the background at obnoxious volumes. RUSS CALL ME BACK I MISS YOU DADDY!

Looking at the waiver, it literally says that you might be buried alive under 12 feet of dirt and rock, with a limited amount of air and will have to figure out how to escape. Yeah, nah.
I love how papa meat makes his ads look like schlocky 90s-early 2000s infomercials it makes me enjoy watching them
I’m a haunt owner/actor 0:26. This past march, at a huge haunters convention, I met him there. He asked our group (3 of us) to take a picture, I said no but one of them took a pic with him. So disturbing learning this.
I live in TN and as a kid I wanted to go to mckamey Manor but yeah I'm glad I didnt
Well did the person who took a pic with him know about his haunted house
@@goddosyourself7970 yea we’re all haunt owners, the convention was strictly for owners so we all know everything.
I always thought this guy was a sick person, I’d want nothing to do with him
I'm a scare actor, and it literally made me sick when my coworkers would talk about the manor. talking about it like it was the best haunt ever
I was right there watching the uploads from Reckless Ben in real time as he was taking this dude down. I’m so glad to see justice is finally happening!
“You know it’s not real, right?”
What’s not real, exactly? They’re actively being beaten, force fed, water boarded, suffocated, etc. What exactly is not real about this? I mean, they’re *probably* not going to die, I guess. But the torture is very real.

After doing digging with the videos released. Not only did he literally ruin a man’s life because of a hard drive. The girl Caedis Silvis, at 26:52 was told that she was just going to do a promo video for his channel, just to go through it for real, & when she thought it was done, he found her and then his goons brought her back to that place to do it *again* because he stated that “the experience wasn’t over”.
I always feel bad for the phobia animals that are used for the whole "fear factor" thing like they're probably so uncomfortable as mfs are screaming and shaking right next to them.
Don't worry Russ doesn't own a single rat.

As a haunter, I'm glad to say 99% of haunters have denounces McKamey. He's awful
He’s in with rape so who’s really shocked also assault both sexual and physical he’s gotta be psychotic
8 yr haunt veteran, can also confirm. We do not claim him, nor have ever claimed him! We say the same, he *is not running a haunt*, its just a torture chamber.
There isn't even a manor the whole thing is fake.
Mckamey isnt even a haunter or horror fan. Just a freak who wants to torture people.
@@Melancholynn It's a bot my guy.
He was the DJ for my sister's wedding. He even offered her to go to one of his haunts. She politely declined and I'm glad.

Reckless Ben did a series about shutting them down.
Long story short, was a standard "boo" haunt till he lost all his props due to divorce followed by not having storeage followed by rain.
After that it's a torture chamber where you can't win, because he'll dround you before paying you
I will forever kick myself in the ass for missing that video that was deleted seen it. I was gonna watch it soon and now it’s gone fucking shit.
Right!? And people went there like "I'm gonna win that money!"

Guys, he isn't a journalist. He's reacting and commenting on things he discovers. It's an entertaining intro to topics some of are unaware of, and then can go down the rabbit hole if they wish. I wouldn't be so hard on hunter for not covering every detail of this absolutely insane thing
Dude you so seriously understate the extent of this guys crimes. There's many videos of people outright begging to be let go and saying they quit and he goes right back to drowning and burying them.
I love the empty gaze in Hunter's eyes every time he does a Fum ad😂😂

The best haunted house was a bog standard midwest haunted barn experience i had with a bunch of the typical jump scares. But the real kicker was them hiring Kane goddamn Hodder to chase people with a chainsaw out into the parking lot.

20:35 ACDC and start sweet child o' mine lol
Reckless Bens coverage of the manor is one of my favorite things ever posted on UA-cam. So happy ur posting about it now!
0:05 have you lost weight bro? You look good 👍
I think it's because he's shaved his face so it looks slimmer. He is also on a diet and stuff as well
On the Cream crew Patreon he mentioned he got a home gym and a trainer so he very much could of lost some weight
he is slaying fs
Shouldn’t comment on people’s bodies, even if it’s positive. You don’t know how it will affect them. I recently lost a ton of weight. Why? A health issue and lack of money for food. I know you meant well but it’s often not a positive thing. Maybe it is positive for him, but we don’t know. It’s too touchy a subject, especially when the comment is about weight.
Its that Factor sponsorship effect
Its clear to me that if this man was sane then the safe word would have been there from the start, there would be medical staff and care would be taken to allow people to quit at any point. However it is painfully obvious that this man is psychologically disturbed, it's incredibly likely that the whole thing was just for him to enjoy the sadistic power trip of being able to harm people without the fear of being arrested. The thing is the fact that he went after his girlfriend and went over that line makes me think that the haunted house either wasn't working as well for him to scratch the itch, or it could be a cover up for others he has abused/murdered. Not 100% sure he doesn't seem all that smart, so who knows.
NGL big meat, as a vet I suffer from crippling anxiety. And I’ve seen the main channel vids and it isn’t for me but that’s okay. You bring the funny to spooky. Papa Meat is the channel for me :)

Sounds about right, dealing with enough annoying customers can make a guy unhinged.
I hated hearing them say "It's not real, you know it's not real right?" because it IS real. They really ARE putting her through all the things they're doing to her - the only thing you could possibly say isn't "real" is the intent to kill but I don't even know if THAT'S appropriate to say because it very much seems to me they could so easily kill someone given the lack of medical staff and the danger/severity of their actions. If you have someone falling in and out of consciousness and you're just ignoring that giant red flag as to the person's safety, then "intent to kill" doesn't seem all that different from a total lack of concern whether the person dies.
Hellraiser would have a field day with this guy.
Thing is, the Cenobites are torturing you to get you to enjoy pain. They are like BDSM fetishists with no boundaries, but they are doing what they do for what they see as your benefit. Russ would probably kick you out if you were a masochist because it's not about your experience as much as it is about his power fantasy.
"Oh, no 3 hours long response videos please. It's a waste of good suffering."

I read the waiver and this dude straight up put that participants understand that they may be buried 12 feet underground and that if they die, its their fault for not breathing properly/not holding their breath at the right time 😐
4:25 all jokes aside - imagine you're an attacking vessel, you board your enemy, and the whole ship looks like a horror movie scene. the deck is splattered with blood, used ammunition and bisected corpses everywhere. The sleeping quarters look like torture rooms, the brig looks like kidnapper dungeon, the sick bay looks like broken down hospital operating rooms like some silent hill shit.

I used to live around the corner from him back when he was in rancho penasquitos! It would be 2 am and you’d have neighbors running down the street screaming beimg chased by chainsaw wielding psychos. We tried for years to get rid of him and he just took it somewhere else. He gave the whole neighborhood lice once, he’d put a bag on your head and not wash them. He’d record people going thru for his own personal pleasure. He also ran a simulated kidnapping experience where you could sign yourself or someone else up, and russ and a group of guys would pull up in a van, any where at any time ! He was so gross, and just every red flag in a human being russ was. Hope he rots in prison

I’m a scare actor (see pfp), a horror movie lover and haunted house enthusiast. I cannot even do Ohio’s Haunted Hoochie and fell down the rabbit hole of McKamey Manor when my parents talked about it a few years back. This dude is literally insane and has tried multiple times to come after people in the FaceBook group I’m in ‘exposing’ him. It’s so insane that a person can be THIS demented.

The other scary part is that he is definitely selling footage and trophies (there is reason why they shave hair, pull teeth, etc) to people on the dark web. He has probably made untold millions.

Oh that’s disgusting 🤢 hope he stays behind bars jfc
My dad was in the navy in the early 80's, and he said back then there was an initiation for new sailors whenever they crossed the equator. Basically it was the kind of torture this guy does, minus any animals (obviously). A long tube he had to crawl through filled with sewage, and the further back in the line you started the worse it was because of how many guys threw up on their way through. he also had to crawl between the legs of other senior sailors while they whipped him with belts, shoes, etc. I don't remember everything he said he had to endure, but he's a pretty tough guy, and has seen men die overseas, yet this ritual was one of the worst experiences of his life. Actual psychological torture. Ironically the ritual was banned when women were allowed to join the navy soon after. It makes me wonder if this is the sort of thing that inspired this guy to have people pay to be tortured in a similar way.
we had a haunted house around the corner, but it was haunted in a different way. we all heard the horror story, a group of girls took a boy there thinking he was gonna get lucky, but they pegged him in the abandon house.
