PSYCHO SHOWER RESCUE

Lacy was handcuffed to the same bloody showerhead used in Alfred Hitchcock's PSYCHO while gallons of blood spilled down onto her body. Her boyfriend Chad Granger dunked his head in an ice chest filled with moldy gunk and retrieved an ax, which he used to smash up bungalow one at the Bates Motel in search of a key that would free Lacy. It was a bloody rampage that neither of them will soon forget as they recount in this weeks Tale of Fear.

FEAR FACTOR: So what was it like having to dunk your head into that nasty ice machine?

CHAD: Dunking my head into that slop was just disgusting. That stuff smelled awful. I knew that I didn't want to have to put my head in there twice so I decided to just hold my breath and get it done.

FEAR FACTOR: So once you had the axe you had to take down the door…

CHAD: Taking down the door with the axe was fun, so was smashing up the room. I just went crazy in there. Smash it all up, get the key and get her out of there.

FEAR FACTOR: How was the blood shower?

LACEY: I was freaking' out in there. That blood was so cold and it's like blood, which is just disgusting. I couldn't even believe this was happening so I just started screaming. I just wanted him to get me out of this disgusting shower.

CHAD: I was just totally caught in the moment, the adrenalin and all that, I was just, go-go-go. I felt like I was playing a freaking' baseball game with that axe.

LACY: When he got there it got even worse. He had all this gross junk all over and it smelled...I mean, there's no- there's no words to describe to make people understand how bad that smell. I wanted him to stay away. I didn't throw-up but I sure thought I was going to.
