VIDEO: Reporter knocked to the ground during live shot at Halloween haunted house

Posted by Chris Spags on October 31st, 2011 at 3:30 pm

A reporter from Michigan ABC affiliate WXYZ was doing a normal Halloween-themed live shot from a Pontiac, Mich. haunted house when a combination of a loud explosion and terror knocked her to the ground. Her shout of “they’re not paying me enough for this” seems like a reasonable response.

I’m simultaneously enamored and disgusted with the actors’ commitment to their characters. On the one hand, I kind of wanted to see them help her out. On the other hand, I wanted to see them attempt to eat her flesh. They did neither. Maybe I expect too much out of guys whose career peaked with the TV credit of “Guy at Haunted House Dressed Like Zombie Who Copped a Feel on Local News Reporter under the Guise of Helping Her Up,” but still.
