2. Scream for no reason. Sometimes this throws the characters off.
3. Push the most frightened person to the front. It guarantees you that your journey will creep through at a snail's pace.
4. Wear fitted clothing. Loose clothing makes it too easy for someone to grab a hold of you when they get scared.
5. Use the bathroom ahead of time. There's nothing worse than being frightened with a full bladder.
6. Leave the glasses at home. If you have contacts, wear those instead. In one haunted house, a woman in my group got spooked, threw her hands up and knocked my glasses off. I almost went "kill, kill, kill, kill, kill . . . " on her.
7. Jeans and sneakers will do. Some of these haunted houses (and Barns) require you to crawl, slide, scrape up against dirty walls, so leave the 3-inch heels and suede jackets at home. Who are you trying to impress - Michael Myers?
8. Dress warm. As it gets closer to Halloween, the lines will get longer, and it may require you to stand in a line outside.
