AI is ruining haunted houses

Haunted house attractions are increasingly using AI-generated art for marketing materials and digital projections, disappointing enthusiasts who value the craft as a purely analog, creative experience. The use of AI art is particularly problematic for haunts because promotional materials should accurately represent the experience visitors will have, yet AI often produces misleading or low-quality results. Major haunted attractions like Kennywood and The Darkness have faced significant backlash for incorporating AI art, signaling growing industry-wide resistance to the technology's use in this traditionally handmade creative field.
