Home automation is really helpful to solve those issues. Heating will turn off if a window is open for more than one minute. Heating schedule is controlled centrally (and enforced every few minutes, so even touching the thermostat has no impact). I'm trying to move to presence sensors as well to cut on the lights on forever.
Basically, to enter, they'll need to enter their payment information, and at the end of the haunted house, they'll be billed based on the bills incurred by the house during the session. Now that'll be true horror.
This isn't Monsters, Inc.! Look at this, gee whiz! The place isn't powered by screams! Can I get one person in this dang haunted house in my side here? Don't you know global warming is real?
Aw, for cripes sake! is that an INCANDESCENT? Yep, I can feel the heat coming off of it. Where's the ladder in this place?
It's only that cheap because the power it uses is inconsequential.
Besides, shifting the blame for climate change to the average person is exactly what many industries want. "It's not OUR fault our plants dumped all this pollution because we resisted all the greener ways of power generation, it's yours because you didn't turn the thermostat to 85°/Turn off the lights/left your TV in standby/Left your phone charging over night"
The worst part is that it's my pet peeve and my own fault. I try to keep my kitchen relatively organized-ish so I can cook quickly. When a cabinet is open, whether or not I see it, I'm blind to it and inevitably hit my head on an edge
No cap actually a great concept. Titanium white lighting on eggshell walls for an entire mansion that suddenly comes to life when the haunting starts: you can see the dark murky corpses crawling towards you down the hallway.
