Woman sues Kansas City’s 'The Beast' after breaking both ankles
Share this @internewscast.com

A Nebraska woman claims a thrill-seeking jump at one of Kansas City’s well-known haunted houses resulted in her breaking both ankles, leading her to sue the venue for alleged dangerous conditions.

The suit questions the safety protocols at The Beast, a renowned Kansas City haunted house that attracts thousands each Halloween.

Leslie Blake initiated the lawsuit against Full Moon Productions, the operator of The Beast, in Jackson County Circuit Court. She had visited the attraction in October 2021.

Blake asserts she followed staff instructions for “The Beast Jump,” a stunt where visitors leap from a second-story window onto an inflatable air pad, but upon landing, she broke both ankles.

The lawsuit alleges the air pad was not properly inflated, was poorly positioned, and lacked adequate supervision and warnings. Blake argues Full Moon Productions was, or should have been, aware of the jump’s hazards, referencing previous injury-related lawsuits.

The suit asserts these conditions rendered the “Beast Jump” hazardous and defective, implying Full Moon Productions should have recognized the associated dangers.

It also claims the company had been the subject of previous lawsuits involving injuries at its attractions, including injuries connected to the same jump.

Full Moon Productions promotes itself as an industry leader that “adds new scenes and behind-the-scenes technology” each year to give visitors an “incredible sensory experience.”

According to the lawsuit, the company also claims to use “the latest technology to monitor every scene and every visitor,” promising that with fire marshals, extra police officers, and security guards on site, “you can be assured of a safe experience.”

When purchasing tickets online, Full Moon Productions makes you fill out a waiver before you enter their attractions.

Blake’s lawsuit accuses the company of negligence, recklessness and failing to maintain safe conditions for visitors. It seeks more than $75,000 in damages, plus court costs and interest.
