As some of you are aware, I want to get my Will made up leaving everything to my brothers and sister on the condition they stay the night in a haunted house. I needed some lawyerly advice and sought it online, the response:
A Haunted House Clause wouldn’t be enforceable only because we can’t defined “haunted,” but yeah, talk to a cheap lawyer, and tell them to put the following language immediately after the distribution paragraph in your will:
“Notwithstanding, my executor shall not make any distributions of my estate to any of the above-named beneficiaries without each respective beneficiary spending a period of twelve (12) consecutive hours, beginning no earlier than 5:00pm of the time zone where present, and no later than 7:00pm of the same time zone, in an abandoned amusement park, mental hospital, prison, or house, known, or reasonably believed to be haunted or otherwise susceptible to the presence of ghosts, ghouls, goblins, spirits, phantasms, or other metaphysical or supernatural beings. Note that the presence of these beings shall be, in the fair and reasonable discretion of the executor, confrontational, haunting, or otherwise aggressive. The executor and any and all representatives of the estate claim no liability or responsibility for the mental, emotional, or physical safety of such beneficiary. And upon such twelve-hour time period as mentioned above lapsing, the executor shall, without delay, distribute that beneficiaries share of the estate.”
