[4K] Haunted House Dark Ride - Coney Island- Spook A Rama Haunted Ride 

The “Who Let the Dogs Out?” had me laughing.

Honestly the old feel and absence of music made this actually scary

To all the people complaining that this ride isn't scary: 1. This ride is *sixty years old* , give it a break. 2. It was intended as a family ride, meaning kids were intended to ride this thing.

How cute and so rustic.It's practically an antique and it is such excellent condition. Its been around just as long as Haunted Mansion. The first skeleton made me jump. Oh how it emanates nostalgia!I love the sound the buggy makes and the slight soft clicks it makes. I adore those animals. It is a bit dizzying but I have to admit it has style.

Places like this scare me far more than actually well put together haunted mantions because of that exact fact; they seem so run down and poorly built, without any ambient sound or music, this one being just a big open warehouse especially - really creeps me out. x.x

Spook-a-rama is a true Coney Island classic and one of the last remaining pretzel dark rides.

Looks better than most carnival horror rides. Giving it props for being 60 years old, actually having moving props (than mannequins), actual scenes (instead of black walls with an occasion of fluorescent paint), and more than 3 monsters in ride (and I don't count paintings of monsters). lol

The "scary" factor in this is thrown right out the window the moment someone asks "who let the dogs out?"

did anyone else hear, who let the dogs out? lmao

This is really awesome! I love the clicking sounds of the vehicles as they roll through the spook house track ride. A totally classic and vintage amusement park ride of yesteryear still operating today. FANTASTIC! Thanks for uploading.

the chicken wire is always a sign of the best dark rides.

Considering it's over 60 years old, it's not that bad

Shout out to the lads playing air hockey really loud in the background of the video.

3:04 LOL. It started playing who let the dogs out I laughed so much.

There were tons of these old school spook houses when I was a kid. Those loud click click cars, dark musty buildings, twisting tracks, & in-your-face stunts. They were always creepier than the well-designed high-budget dark rides. Spook-O-Rama is one of the very few survivors from a lost era of dark rides. Enjoy it while it lasts!

The moving cabs on the wonder wheel are intense, love me some Coney Island

Those eyes on the doors might be origjnal. I am in my 60s and I remember them as a child.

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT !!!

Wow! I've never seen more quality scares packed into one short attraction! Love it!

Fun fact: the carts used here are in fact authentic Pretzel carts (which would make sense considering they built the ride), but they’re actually not originally from Coney Island. Instead, they were transferred over from Canobie Lake Park in New Hampshire (another historic park), and used for the ride

For an old school type of pretzel ride, this was not bad.

I just love the fact it's one jumperscare after another to the point you're just rolling your eyes

I remember an indoor section some 30-40 years ago (heading away from main show building) where you'd pass through a garden with alleged poison ivy. Then in the shallow building the cars went behind a "blood" red waterfall behind some glass or mirror.. Further more there were people with (I assume) airguns playing a shooting gallery. Giving the effect you are the target. Somehow they couldn't see you but you could see them. Cool parlor trick. I remember that stretch

Now you see why dark ride usually pass through double doors. This ride only has one door, and when it opens daylight lights up the whole ratty interior and ruins the effect. This ride is best ridden at night.

Such a fun ride! Best ridden at night. Also, the camera don't catch all the air cannons to the face or the cobwebs at the end. Always puts a smile on your face this one. Once a year ride for me.

In the 1960s schools were safe campy batman was most kids favorite TV show. The Jerky coney island Spooky house ride was plan simple fun intended for young children and teenagers trying get their arm on a girl's shoulder. Coney Island was the quiessential amusement park designed for your amusement nothing more. Back in the day children let their imagination run a mock in the spooky house. The video amused me and brought back happy childhood memories Thanks for sharing.

I love this ride I've ridden it now for close to 40 years it's not the scariest I know but it's an old school throwback to a better time. Can't wait to ride it again this year.

3:03 Wow sooo scary :l

Coney Island=“WARRIORS,COME OUT TO PLAY”

I love dark rides. Thanks for vlogging them.

Love this! There's nothing more classic and Vintage as an old spooky, Dark Ride. :)

Holy cow, this is huge! I was not expecting to see so much. That's amazing.

Went on this ride many times as a kid. It was definitely scary. "Who Let the Dogs Out" wasn't there in the 1960s!

Oh man, at the first spook, I just jumped back in my seat!

I'm 66 and remember this ride from when I was a kid. What I remember most about Spook-a-Rama was the smell of the ancient wood as the car banged through the entrance doors.

The werewolf with who let the dogs out! 😂

Old school haunted house ride. I remember the one in Wildwood NJ in the 70's, same rounded seats, rustic look. I was a kid and a little scared. Hehe. :)

Initially disappointed that we could see the whole room at first, I ended up impressed with how close some of the jump scares were and how smooth some of the animations were. A little pricey, but if I were there I'd have to ride it... just to say I'd ridden a Pretzel! Thanks for this excellent video.

Loved the old timey feel to it.

Yes this ride looks amazing I love New York and this ride omg I would totally go on. This ride is old if it’s been up for 60 years jeez that’s crazy.

I went here a few times in the 1990s and remember it was so run down that workers hid in the shadows and pushed the cart back into action when it would get stuck, lol. Good times.

I love this attraction because it reminds me of the fun fair ones like in Germany and the UK. I like the lighting and the animatronics throughout the attraction. 🎃

I love your videos keep going! Come in France we've got a lot of rollercoasters as well :D

0:46 *what I REALLY want is a Nathan's Hot Dog AT Coney Island! 😭 Then ride this, of course! Gracias 4 the Upload!* ✌

The scariest part of this ride is the lack of a soundtrack, it makes you feel like you're entering a psychopath's dungeon.

i went on this ride in 2018. i was scared out of my mind when one of the things TOUCHED MY KNEE. didnt help afterwards that the worker scared the crap out of me and my cousin by jumping up behind our car and screaming before letting us out

If spirit Halloween had a convention.

More hilarious than spooky lol ..who let the dogs out 😂

目がチカチカする！光の勢いが凄い

That was awesome, some cool ideas in there, I like that most of those pop outs were really close.

There use to be a park in Wichita Kansas called Joyland, and their version was called the Wacky Shack. I never liked scary rides and only went on it a handful of times as a kid, and each time I would always bury my face in the arm of the person I was with. One cool thing I would keep my eyes open for was at the very beginning.. there were a bunch of neon glow in the dark doors that the car would bang open (I think the later removed those doors). The one thing I hated most in there was this loud truck horn that would sound at a certain point. I still remember how it was always kind of cooler (temp wise) in there and the smell of electricity. Oh, and so many people complaining about this ride.. I think they missed the part where you said that it's been in operation for over 60 years. Also, it's meant to be for kids to go through. It's just good old fashion fun!

This thing is like 2 steps above Kennywood's old school Le Cachot when it was still around. This was great!

Fun fact, this ride was on of the few that survived hurricane sandy. It use to have a different name I can’t remember. Bonus fact, that dragon on top was actually involved in a fire and I’m pretty sure they just kept it because it looked cool lol

I love this ride. It's got that Mr Toad style track where it keeps looking like the cars are gonna collide.

This is way better than it was when I was a kid, which some much-improved scares. (Though nothing was better than the cyclops with Laurel & Hardy statues on the top of the entrance). I remember at one point on the ride your chair went outside in broad daylight in a backyard area and you just drove around back there for a bit with absolutely nothing scary happening, LOL.

I remember this ride many years ago, had a longer track with two dark houses the other dark house had a waterfall

This is AMAZING! I JUST LOVE oldschool rides!

Wow....it's certainly no Haunted Mansion,but when you consider how many ghost trains have gone the way of the drive-in theater and the arcade,it's definitely a survivor! I'm guessing much of what's in there was ready-made....there are several companies that make scary animatronics like those.

Who let the dogs out lol😎🐕🐕🐕

Would rather ride one of these "rickety," original old "Carnival" dark rides than the slicked up, "clean," tech-scrubbed rides of today. They have an inherent, deep-rooted, subliminal, fear-inducing, psychologically disturbing creepiness and nerve-jarring reality-chaos that modern rides lack.

Yes, this is one of my favorite "Ghost Trains", if not my favorite.

I love this stuff,keep it coming

This brought back memories of the 90s ☺️thank you

Thank you for filming this

I went on this ride many times when I was a kid. You would go right into one house and ride around for a while then come out and ride around for a few minutes then go into another house. It seems a lot less scary now that they changed all the stuff that they could show 60 years ago but can't anymore. One time my brother jumped out of the car to go spit on one of the exhibits and couldn't find his way back, he really scared some other kids when he tried getting in their car. He came out on foot and the barker chased him halfway down the Bowery.

Cool footage 👍👍👍

This is a good ghost train with some good jumpscares and lively animatronics.

Great vídeo my friend! !!!!!!

The insane electric shock sound and the jerky/pop out movements are terrifying! This is A LOT lol!

I wish that I was there in real life! Best haunted house ride i’ve seen in my life! I’m from Holland and the haunted houses here are sooooo bad if you compare it with ride.

Some well-placed black tarps would make a big difference. Though when daylight comes in, it's not ideal for the ride. Great video though! Will watch again. The dragon sculpture outside above the entrance is cool.

Never in my life has a skeleton made me jump until now oml

I think the screaming kids are louder than the ride lol

I actually jumped at that first skeleton jump scare LOL

Better than most rides of this type, usually just mostly dark.

Makes you appreciate Disney's animatronics lol

I love the old dark rides. They all seem to have chicken wire.

I haven't even SEEN one of these rides up close (much less ridden one) since I was a kid in the 1970's!

Omg i love this rid i always go to it in coney island so good

They actually have some pretty good animatronics here. Just wish this ride wasn't on ADHD and gave you a little time to soak in what's in front of your face.

Really great Ghost Train deffinently one of the better ones out there but what i think would make it even better is if they split everything with walls because you can kind of see whats coming some times and i think that eould make it even better

I like the car you get to ride in. The long back to give a sense of security.

Built and owned by a certifiable nut job, it represented the creative yet disjointed landscape of Coney Island. I grew up in Brooklyn and went to Coney Island frequently. This dog ride is always considered to be mediocre at best but it excelled in being completely off-the-wall

When I took my son through this we saw a grand total of three things inside, the rest was complete darkness. Loooong stretches of absolutely nothing. So weird and very disappointing!! Wild to see how much is "usually" in there I guess going by this video?!

Unless that constant creaking noise was intentional, I'd say either the track or cart is due for maintenance.

As a kid i was just too afraid to ever get on the spooky rides. Its cool to see what i missed out on. This probably would've traumatized me lol😅

1:52 got me good 😂😂

Decent assortment of animated figures. There were a few spots that could've used a little something.

I love these things. I feel like a kid again.

I think the red and black skeleton at 0:20 might be a store-bought prop. The mold for the skull looks familiar.

I was just there today, 7/2/18. I would not go on the ride, because the last time I rode it, was about 1964. After seeing this video, it's quite different from what I remember.

I went on this ride and I closed my eyes the whole time cuz I was scared af

They've changed the stunts a lot since my last visit, but the open-room aspect of the ride is still in place. I miss the demon face that looked like it was built out of traffic lights.

remember riding this and being petrified as a kid. great memories.

it used to be much longer with the car going to the other side of the park into another building and another part of the dark ride many years ago.

3:02 "WHO LET THE DOGS OUT"... Lmaoo

Better than expected. Though it's a little bit too bright for its own good inside. Then again, at least I can see what's going on at all.

I believe, most inner dividing walls, from the original state, had been taken out, and quite a lot of newer puppets moved in !?? (It's well packed inside there :-) ) ......This undoubtly is not the original state of 60 years ago, but it makes great fun :-) ... the most freaking thing however, is the admission price .... lol

cool ride because of the animatronics jumpscares is not just only like a statue that people would just look at it but they scare wish it has like that here in Philippines
