It's definitely an all night adventure right
off Hwy 90 in Richmond.
Red Rum Fear Park is waiting for
you. It is the
first and only haunted theme
park in Fort Bend County. It's
the brainchild of Mike Caruso and his wife
Andrea who started Red Rum 11 years ago.
We started out as a real
small mom and pop business.
We had a staff of only about 13 people and.
Really exceeded over 160 with full staff,
about 140 of those employees are
actors here to bring your nightmares
to life. First up, make up.
We have a lot of different masks and props
that we make here in house for our actors.
So we try to create the costumes for them
next step scarce when we hear the screaming.
It's just music to our ears and we know
that we're doing a great job. Your
general admission pass at Red Rum
lets you go through its attractions
as many times as you want.
You can hang out at Deadwood Asylum
Synagogue or takes you inside your
favorite horror movies and in laser fury,
you're going head-to-head with war boys
and a Mad Max inspired laser tag game.
Everywhere you go, there's just something
stimulating your experience as you
go through. There is so
much to see and do here,
but I brought my friend Megan
for a one of a kind experience.
We're going to go through the twisted circus.
Is a concept called
chroma depth which allows all the
various colors in there to come at
different elevations? Oh, this is cool.
Bag.
We're OK, we're OK, we're fine.
No no no.
Hi.
Totally.
I have to keep looking behind me.
Oh, this is like your short
people please oh this is forever.
I know normal people have to dump,
but we're good. Yeah, this is like
the funhouse stress. What is this?
A killer clown posse appreciates.
Second,
I thought we were in the clear.
I thought we were better. Yeah.
Second,
I read a study this week
that said watching a scary
movie was like doing
a workout. I gotta tell you, going
through the twisted circus,
I think it would do the trick.
How's your heart doing?
Megan Lytle racy.
I see. Yeah it it gets.
It gets the heart pumping.
So if you're looking for a workout,
maybe come down to Red Rum
reporting in Richmond.
