Today, I was working a haunted house. I have a really good spot where I hide and scare people. This really hot guy was walking up, and I jumped out and screamed. He punched me in the face. FML

Today, l was crouched on the ground in the doorway at a haunted mansion. It's part of my job here to scare the people passing by. A 12 year-old girl walked by, I grabbed her leg, and she kicked me in the face. FML

Today, I went to a "haunted" theme park. Actors had been trying to scare me the whole night. I was waiting by an outdoor heater for my friend when a hand came out of nowhere close to my face. I screamed at the top of my lungs, but it was only some chick wanting to warm her hands by the heater. FML

Today, I was working as a clown (Pennywise) in a haunted maze. A bunch of drunk guys came in and started breaking props. I decided to stay still and follow through with the scare. I ended up getting kicked in a very sensitive area. The security guard just laughed. FML

Today my Assistant Manager decided to pull a prank on me by walking up behind me and screaming my name. I screamed in terror and then swung around and punched him, full force, dead center in the chest, right in front of my supervisor, manager, and several other employees. FML

Today, I started my new job at a haunted house. I figured I'd change clothes when I got home, since my bloody shirt and zombie makeup were blatantly just an outfit. I barely made it 10 minutes before I was pinned to the ground at gunpoint, cuffed, and needing new underwear. FML

Exhaustion

Today, I was working at Chuck-E-Cheese. If that isn't enough, I was put in the mouse costume. Due to the disgusting hot smell and atmosphere in the costume, I fainted in front of a birthday party. I awoke to a little boy screaming who then kicked me in the face and ran. FML

Today, I went to a haunted house with my fiancé. A few minutes in, I saw someone following us so I turned and screamed. She ran off and my fiancé explained that she wasn't an actor, just a lady with a pigment disorder. I can never go back there again. FML

Today, I went into a haunted house. Around 30 seconds into the adventure, I couldn't stop screaming at the top of my lungs from all of the scares. Suddenly, the little girl ahead of me, who was all by herself, turned around and told me to "suck it up and grow a pair, loser." FML

Naturally, my first instinct upon seeing an attractive male is also jumping forth and scaring the shit out of the guy. That'll win his heart!

She has a job to do, attraction or not. Also, it could be a great way to meet someone, in a way. "You worked in the haunted house? Haha, you scared me good!" and then it goes from there...

Lol I'm working a haunted house too. I'm a guide, though, so it's my job to try to make sure that shit like that doesn't happen. I don't really see what I could do to stop it though. And think about it this way, you obviously scared the shit out of him!

Jerk. Every haunted house I've been to has clearly marked signs/instructions, DON'T TOUCH THE ACTORS. Hope your face is okay :)

What a DICK. He should have had the decency not to hit a woman.

the person that hit OP obviously didnt know it was a woman because when ppl work at a haunted houses your all covered in make up or in a costume and plus its also dark. and hitting OP was clearly not intentional

WTF does it matter whether they got an innie or an outie? You shouldn't hit *anyone*, dude. Stupid misplaced 'chivalry'.

This is bad, if OP reported it the guy could get in a lot of trouble. I say go for it. If he's going to react like that he shouldn't be in there in the first place. A kid around here went to one drunk and ended up beating the crap out of one of the scarers. They called the cops, and hello police record.

"Fight or Flight Reaction" That's why all actors in Theme Parks during events like this are FORBIDDEN to touch the customers just for that reason. I should know, I worked at Halloween Horror Nights (Universal Studios, Orlando Florida) for years, and thankfully it has never happened to me, but I've seen co-workers get broken noses from stupid, DRUNK, people who lose all sense of what's the 'logical' thing to do. Either "Fight or Flight".
