To that end, there's a lot that the museum gets right when it comes to being an attraction and a few things it could improve.However, in both cases, there's a lot that haunters can learn about how to improve their attractions and, hopefully get more money from even happier customers.This Week's Episode Includes:IntroHousekeeping NotesQuick Non-HW Housekeeping NoteQuestion of the WeekHistory of City MuseumWhat is City MuseumPositive LessonsNegative LessonsWrap UpConclusionsAll in all, this is one episode you do NOT want to miss!
