    I understand that the sport of laser tag, haunted houses and associated activities, including but not limited to, running, jumping, walking, moving through dark and unlit spaces, collisions (hereafter “laser tag activities”), involve inherent and other risks of injury and death. I understand that Nightmare Combat is an intense horror themed attraction filled with live performers, intense audio and strobe lighting effects, snow effects, air, mist, fog, Co2, haze effects and more. All players must be 13 years of age to attend. Any player under 18 must have parent complete the bottom portion of this waiver. Any player under 16 must have a parent with them at all times on the property.

    No Touching:

    I understand that participation carries with it certain inherent risks and dangers that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid accidents, injury or death. I hereby assert that my participation is voluntary and that I knowingly assume all such risks including serious injury or death.

    I further agree to defend and indemnify Providers for all loss and damage (including, without limitation the reimbursement of the fees and expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses) arising from claims or lawsuits for personal injury, death, property loss and damage or other losses or damages arising from or related to my participation in the haunted house activities organized by Francis Frights LLC. I understand losses include, without limitation reimbursement of Providers for the fees and expenses of Providers serving as witnesses, preparing for trial, or participating in any proceeding.

I further agree that any action involving parties or issues relating to or arising out of this agreement must be instituted and prosecuted in the State of Ohio. If any provision of this agreement is held in whole or in part to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of that provision and of the entire agreement will be severable and remain in effect.

    I have read this RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT, understand that I have given up substantial rights by signing it and have signed it freely and without any inducement or assurance of any nature and intend it be a complete and unconditional release of all liability to the greatest extend allowed by law.
