Church Has "Reality House" To Compete With Haunted Houses

A Church in Louisiana is offering a "Reality House" as an alternative to the traditional Halloween haunted housed offered by others.

According to a public notice in the Ouachita Citizen...

Teenagers will get a scary look at the results of unwise decisions through simulations of a fatal automobile accident, emergency medical response, emergency room death, a funeral, and life after death. The house is designed for those aged 12 and older.

The Reality House uses strobe lights, so please do not participate if you are epileptic or prone to seizures.


According to thenewsstar.com:

The event is aimed at teenagers who "will get a scary look at the reality of unwise decisions," according to the Rev. Larry Roy, youth pastor.

"The Reality House is similar to a haunted house experience. We want teens to visit for a real reality check. We plan to make them think about life, death, heaven and hell," he stated.


There's one more chance to see it tomorrow night, so make sure you don't miss it. Sounds like fun!

It sounds like a hell house.

There's one near here in Gray, GA that calls itself a "Judgment House." And that's "house" with two syllables.

Since when the fuck do churches know a goddamn thing about "reality?"

I second Galen's post.
And how are they supposed to recruit new members with shit like that? "Oh, it's so great to be loved by God!! Jesus as your savior, He'll take you to heaven!! It's such a happy community!! But if you take just ONE wrong step you get THIS for eternity. Join today!!"
