    Lightbulb Haunt terminology – 06-23-2010,08:50 AM


    I'm going to be working with some "newbies" on a haunted house and I started spouting off some of our lingo that everyone here knows so well. They had no clue what I was talking about and I came up with the idea of typing a type of dictionary or glossary for them.

    What terms or lingo do you think I should include? It might be nice to include the final list here on the forum once I get it compiled for any newbies out there just getting in to haunting too.

    I think the phrase "ouch, dammit, someone get me a tourniquate" would be usefull.
    What doesn't kill you can still make you walk funny.

    From Mythbusters: "Now there's your problem". I say that on every build! Or "Okay, that is not what I expected"
