Legal Environment
Safety requirements generally include fire suppression systems, clearly marked exits, warning signs and panic systems. Warning signs usually warn customers about heavy fog, intense strobes, loud sounds and music, crawling and stress that people who are pregnant, disabled or have a heart condition should not enter. Most attractions must be inspected by local authorities to confirm that they comply with codes. Another important aspect in terms of legal issues is insurance. Although many haunted attraction owners may not think about this aspect it is important to have insurance in case someone is hurt at the event.

Famous quotes containing the words legal and/or environment:
“The steps toward the emancipation of women are first intellectual, then industrial, lastly legal and political. Great strides in the first two of these stages already have been made of millions of women who do not yet perceive that it is surely carrying them towards the last.”
—Ellen Battelle Dietrick, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 13, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
“People between twenty and forty are not sympathetic. The child has the capacity to do but it can’t know. It only knows when it is no longer able to do—after forty. Between twenty and forty the will of the child to do gets stronger, more dangerous, but it has not begun to learn to know yet. Since his capacity to do is forced into channels of evil through environment and pressures, man is strong before he is moral. The world’s anguish is caused by people between twenty and forty.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
