Balance is obviously a problem and can very tremedously. But BaHotH has one huge benefit - it is very short. If you have people who played it few times before, you can do entire game in less than 1 hour (and this includes reading event cards to each other aloud to increase interaction). If given haunt ends up too unbalanced due to way things were stacked before, it will finish quickly. Just enjoy the story which was given and play again. BoHotH is not really a competitive game for me, in they way other traitor games are. It is a more of interactive story with game thrown in to manage it all.So yes, haunt might end up being unbalanced, but game is short that you can play multiple sessions in one evening and not worry about that too much - and you end up with worthy experience anyway, even if 'gamey' part was not working perfectly given time.
