I actually have a SC, but still can not understand what the problem was.. wait check that I do.. man was not man enough to say the KIDDIE trail spooked him.
BG/ So this year to pick up a little money to save back to get to England I decided to try out for a haunted trail. I got a job, but not what I sat out to get.. owner of the trail wanted me to design the two trails (one for kids, the other not).. but that is a long story and not the focus of this post./bg
Lots of kids and parents happily complained that the trails were too scary. They enjoyed themselves, and almost everybody was happy (especially the trail owner because their trail was going to be talked about for a long time coming). So when this guy first complained, I foolishly thought it was another of the compliments in the form of complaining that the kiddie trail was too scary.
Cast of characters
SC - Father of 'traumatized' kid (TK)
TK - Traumatized kiddy that didn't look to traumatized'
Me - guess?
AO - Awesome owner..who learned I tend to say exactly what I think and who sat beside me at the exit to see peoples reaction on their many cameras they put up
Steve and Jo (female) - off duty police hired to keep the peace for the trail
SC - I want my money back ($1 for kid, $3 for adult)..my kid won't sleep for a week now!
Me - Well it is a Haunted trail, he looks like he is enjoying himself
TK (eating some pumpkin pie) - Best part was the twins!
SC - He refused to go down the trail because of those twins, I am not paying for something he never did!
AO (Pulling up the cameras about that time, looking for something) - I am sorry to hear that, but as the dozens of signs say... no refunds.
SC - You will give me my money back, we never went down the stupid trail because my kid threw a tantrum when I tried to get them to go.
AO - You mean the same kid you are dragging away from the trail, who looks eager to go?
SC (sort of deflates but keeps trying) - Are you calling me a liar?
Me - no SHE is not, the cameras are...Steve, Jo.. can you show the gentlemen out?
I should mention that Steve is larger then me. He is about 6'3" and I am convinced his muscles had muscles. Yet..of the two Jo was the intermediating one at 5'4".. just had one of those 'you don't want to mess with me' presences. SC turned white when she stood up.. and backed down toward the vehicles shouting that he would never be back, and would tell his friends how terrible we were.

He is my Black Dragon (and yes, a good one) strong, protective, the guardian. I am his Silver Dragon, always by his side, shining for him, cherishing him.
