These two rides are some of my fondest childhood memories.
There’s something incredible about old Halloween rides — the smell, the atmosphere. Something about how cheesy they are actually makes them all the more creepy.
At a place called Lagoon Park that I visited as a child, I liked the other rides of course, but I probably drove my family nuts because I always wanted to ride the horror rides over and over. I would be taken over just at the sight of them from one ride to another. I would truly love to build my own one day.
With the following videos and galleries, I’ll try and encapsulate the emotion and excitement, the nostalgia.
Dracula’s Castle
Terroride
Hope you enjoyed.

That gorilla that… I believe the Terrorride had, used to give me recurrent nightmares when I was a little squirmy thing. Now I absolutely love those rides (especially the owl on Dracula’s Castle that consistently makes vampire puns), but I think I was pretty traumatized as a kid, for awhile.
