AI is ruining haunted houses

Was the mural handpainted or just a print glued to the wall? I feel even something handdrawn from ai generated inspiration could go a long way to add some quality. Even if just by the fact that no one would spend hours to trace terrible slop by hand.

From the article:

> AI art has also seeped into the actual haunted houses themselves. AtmosFX, one of the largest providers of digital projections to the haunt industry, has admitted to using AI to create some of their characters.

Big TV and projectors are very cheap now.

Sure, I was referring to the venue hosting children birthday parties. Big screens and projectors would feel even more dystopian there.

I've seen projectors here in Argentina in venues that host 5-10 y.o. children parties. I guess big TV are too easy to break.
