Golf-themed haunted house skit from @jameslead

The creator films from a first-person perspective as they walk through a 'haunted house for golfers.' In each room, they encounter a different character who presents a common golfer's fear: a course employee announcing 'cart path only,' an angry partner complaining about the long round, and a random single golfer asking to join their group. Each encounter is treated as a jump scare, with the creator screaming in mock terror.
