The animatronics for that dark ride were so real looking!! Best animatronics I’ve seen in a dark ride thus far!! 👍

@LiNdSeYr1026 11 месяцев назад

The salt water that comes with ur clams is to rinse the bellys off and get the dirt off before u dip it in the butter. 😁 I live in Rockland Maine. They're having the 76th annual lobster festival as we speak until Sunday. If ur still in Maine u Def should come. There's a HUGE parade tomorrow morning down Maine st in Rockland too. 😊

@OldMovieRob 11 месяцев назад

Very impressive haunted house! that first animatronic looked almost like a real person there about to talk.

Your dark ride videos are always a highlight, CB. I've never seen a black-lit Scrambler with a light show. Very cool. Great stuff.

It's the best ride. What he forgot to mentionwas the music! ELO blasting and hyping you up! Classic

Conneaut Lake Park had the Ultimate Trip back in the 70s and 80s…best indoor scrambler with music and lights. RIP CLP!

@@SnelsemBush Gardens Williamsburg had one also. No music, just strobes and murals painted on the wall.

@johnchambers8528 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the new video. That new dark ride is one of the best I have seen. Being new they did a great theming job. The entrance makes you feel like you are checking in to a hotel. The props seem really lifelike and unlike on some older dark rides the scenes you see were very clear and having the ability to shoot at the bad guys adds another element. I hope they have a great success with the new ride. The food you showed makes me want to get into the car and head to Maine for some nice fresh seafood and candy as well as seeing another old style traditional amusement park. Keep on taking us along to see the latest adventures you experience.

@lonesoul663 11 месяцев назад

Makes me wonder if every new dark ride nowadays has to be a shooter. Most of the time I'd rather sit back and enjoy the ride. Now I want some lobster.

@silverghostcat1924 11 месяцев назад

Exactly! I don't want to be responsible for the animatronics working or not. Guess it's a way to save wear and tear on them if they're not going all the time.

It’s so nostalgic for me to revisit the place that continues to be so important to me! Love the new dark ride, now the only ride I don’t know how to operate in the park! And LOVE Lenny the Moose, he’s a bit gross haha but he is my hometown chocolate moose!

@TheCarpetbagger Hey Jacob!! I'm so glad you made this video! I'm from New Hampshire and grew up going to Fun Town and Old Orchard Beach with my family. I'm glad to see you're back in New England!! I'm a huge fan and have been watching your channel for many years now. And now you're right near me haha. If you pass through York Maine it's be cool if you stopped by my work at Key Auto center on Route 1 so I could meet you in person! I'm the detailer here , free carwash!! Haha.

@LockeDemosthenes2 11 месяцев назад

That's the best looking darkride I've seen in a while! It's especially impressive that it's at such a relatively small park. Very good and professional effects that would almost pass at a Disney or Universal park. I'm just hoping the park will be able to properly maintain it when effects inevitability start breaking down.

While your here, make sure ya nab a TRUE Maine meal - a Moxie, a red hot dog from the steamer at any has station (NOT the rolling dog), and a bag of Humpty Dumpty BBQ chips. Its the Maine way 😊

I stumbled across this while searching for videos of Funtowns original Haunted House from the late 80s- early 90s, and didn't even realize they'd opened a new Haunted attraction. The original is the best Haunt I've ever been to... It was an actual house, an old gothic style manor and had dozens of live actors working daily. I remember my friends and I being truly terrified there as a child, getting lost in a pitch black maze section, and panicking until one of the actors took pity on us and broke character to let us out the emergency exit. 😂 Wish they'd kept it but I can only imagine how expensive the upkeep was on that place.

@BanazirGalpsi1968 11 месяцев назад

Also the Astros here is the only ride in the u .s. that is like the gyrosphre that used to be at seabreeze in Rochester. The seabreeze ride was built in the 70 s and is now sadly gone, but the astrospere is it's spiritual twin. So when you here people from the city you met Jen in talk about the gyrosphre at seabreeze, think of the astrospere at fun town

I normally don't like the shooter-hybrid dark rides but this one was really well done and actually put a lot of effort into the dark ride elements. I got the sense that you could actually still get a good ride experience out of that one without focusing too much on shooting targets.

Definitely go to old orchard for fried clams but for a really unique experience go to Portland, you can take a ferry out to the islands and check out battery steel which I believe is on peaks Island. It’s an old abandoned underground fort that you can explore and has cool old rooms and echo chambers, and they occasionally throw events there with art and turn it into a museum. Also the urban farm fermentory in Portland is really great. And j’s oyster bar and the porthole restaurants are not to be missed!
