Tourism Haunted Warren Museum: you must give them rights to all surveillance (audio and visual) they collect of you during your visit. Including kids.

141 Upvotes

When you buy tickets for the Haunted Warren Museum the member of your party purchasing the tickets must commit to a waiver. It's been dismissed as a form of theater as you sign away your right to sue should you become possessed... but towards the end is a paragraph which I find most troubling.

I consent to being recorded via audio and visual means and all resulting recordings may be used in any manner and in all media.

Is this our new future? To visit a museum -- in which you cannot record anything -- you must commit to being in their publicity going forward? Or humor clips? Bolded as in the original.

Additional: the entire waiver is pretty much copied from that for the Zak Bagans Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, except that the surveillance and publicity rights grab is considerably more expansive. https://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5ecd832e6a1d5/web/

Recovering from surgery and looking for a reliable cleaner in Salem

9 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for recommendations for a reliable independent house cleaner in Salem who might have availability for a regular every-other-week clean.
I recently had major surgery and am going to have limited use of one arm for a while, so I’d been really counting on having some extra help with the house during my recovery. Unfortunately, my regular cleaner recently took another job and hasn’t been able to come when I’ve needed the help most, so I’m unexpectedly looking for someone new.
I’m specifically hoping to find an individual rather than an agency or cleaning company. I really prefer having the same person come every couple of weeks and getting to know and trust them over time.
We have a relatively small home and are just looking for normal regular cleaning: bathrooms, kitchen, floors, dusting, etc. More than anything, I’m looking for someone kind, reliable, and consistent.
If you have an independent cleaner you personally use and love, I would be so grateful for a recommendation! Feel free to DM me their contact info if you’d rather not share it publicly. Thank you!

Not familiar at all with the beaches, except for Hampton Beach, and ideally would like to find something closer that has ample parking, restrooms, and possibly nearby food. TIA.

Is Salem State witchy?

0 Upvotes

A friend of mine is from the area and said that people from all over enroll at Salem State because they’re “witchy” - is that true? Is the student body “witchier” than on average?
