On this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, host Attorney Patrick Smith celebrates Isaiah’s 38th birthday and debuts a special visual element: co-host Maddie the Surfer Girl broadcasting live from her dorm room at Stetson University in Volusia County on Bone TV.

After a quick recap of Patrick’s recent New York City trip (Broadway’s Paranormal Activity and The Lost Boys, plus the three-Michelin-star dining at 11 Madison Park), the crew follows up on a prior aftershow question and confirms that reptiles generally cannot fly as emotional support animals under current DOT rules—only trained service dogs (and, in limited cases, miniature horses) are required to be accommodated.

The main feature is Part 1 of a two-part Halloween series on the laws of haunted houses, focusing on real estate disclosure rules for “stigmatized properties.” Patrick walks through the famous New York “Ghostbusters” ruling in Stambovsky v. Ackley (where a house was declared haunted as a matter of law after the seller publicized its ghosts), contrasts approaches in states like New Jersey, California (Reed v. King), Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Florida (where Statute 689.25 generally exempts psychological stigmas, deaths, and paranormal claims from mandatory disclosure, though sellers cannot actively lie if asked and must still reveal physical defects), and shares personal ghost stories from the crew along with a tour of famous haunted homes.

Maddie’s “Surfs Up” segment delivers additional legal headlines, including an emotional-support alligator lawsuit, a haunted attraction’s safety fight, a nude “art” incident, fake Moroccan diplomat sovereign citizens, and a law-enforcement impersonator. The hour wraps with sports predictions and a reminder to tune in next week for Part 2 on commercial haunted-house attraction safety codes. Callers are invited at 800-771-1025.
