Inside Mckamey Manor Podcast
The new eight-part True Crime series drops this Halloween and uncovers America’s most controversial haunted house
Just in time for the season of fear, Inside McKamey Manor takes listeners deep into the world of McKamey Manor — an extreme haunted house, where participants sign a waiver allowing the scare actors to do...anything. With growing calls to shut down the extreme attraction, some participants claim they were physically injured and traumatised by what happened to them. The eight-part investigative series is hosted by journalist and horror enthusiast Elizabeth McCafferty.
McKamey Manor looks like any other American home from the outside. But what goes on inside has sparked controversy across the globe. This new series from Audio Always, delves into the chilling reality of McKamey Manor, unpacking the legality of the 29 page McKamey Manor waiver, and exploring why thrill-seekers are willing to ensure such extreme horror to feel... real fear .
Inside McKamey Manor asks hard-hitting questions: When does an “extreme haunt” become a “torture house”? Why has no one ever completed the challenge to claim the $20,000 cash prize? And who is Russ McKamey the man behind it all — an entertainer who says he just loves Halloween, or something much darker?
“I’ve always been fascinated by the way people seek out fear, and McKamey Manor takes that fascination to the extreme,” says Elizabeth. “This podcast isn’t just about the haunt itself, it’s about understanding the human desire to confront fear, the psychology that drives people to participate in something so intense, and the ethical line between entertainment and exploitation.”
Listeners can expect interviews with former participants, scare actors and psychologists, lawyers, and even a dominatrix to unravel the dark story behind McKamey Manor. Inside McKamey Manor will be available on all podcast platforms starting the week of Halloween. For a truly immersive experience, join Elizabeth McCafferty as she ventures into the depths of fear — where the boundary between horror and torture becomes increasingly unclear.
