Trimper's Haunted House, Pirates Cove and Morbid Manor - The Dark Rides of Ocean City, MD 

You were so polite about Morbid Manor: "that's what I'd call more of a traveling dark ride..." 😂

Nice. "Zombies on our left zombies on our right stuck In the middle with you"

Dude I bet that kid loved hanging out with you. I'm glad you both had a good time!

...when comes to the ins and outs of a good dark ride Bill was the man. Engineering the Thrills 101 History to be not just remembered but re-visited 👍

It genuinely makes me feel so great to see this haunt get so much love. As cheesy as it is, this haunt is a big part of why I am who I am today. I spent all my summers at OC and even rode this 32 times total one summer. I still ride it any time I go and love to see my nephew enjoy it now. I went on to work at a haunted house for 9 years and live and breathe Halloween and truly give all the credit to trimpers haunted house. Last year (and other years) rumors came out it was closing and I’m just so thankful it hasn’t yet. I would chain myself to the building.

my old stomping grounds! thanks for going and unlocking great memories!

Well back in my day.... Morbid Manor used to be a great walk through attraction out on that pier, but sadly, like Castle Dracula in Wildwood, and Brigantine Castle in Brigantine Nj, they were all lost.

Grew up here. There’s something special about that haunted house. Never changes. So nostalgic

The young man was adorable talking about the dark ride! The Carpetbagger 2 in process 🥰

Dog man is my favorite Trimpers character.

When you looked in the the funhouse mirror and said I look look like a weirdo I felt that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

You found a Carpetbagger Jr. out there. He likes dark rides and he doesn't like roller coasters.

It's MASSIVE RARE to find a double-decker carousel still in operation like that. There only 6 of them in the WORLD. It's even more rare to find original horses that have the real-hair tails like that. Majority of modern carousel animals are plastic or fiberglass. Wooden ones are rare :(

I was 6 in 1990 when I went through with my Pops but I closed my eyes the whole time and I got him to promise not to tell. The very next day I was able to get through it all legit. For me and my childhood, this is where it all begun.... I will always carry this place inside of me, wherever I go

I used to cry on the Haunted House in OCMD🤦🏻‍♀️. Im a Marylander 💯

Yess im excited for this, love darkrides

I LOVE the haunted house ride. I go every year for the cheesy decor and so of course I had to click on the video!!

Carpetbagger.. Good AM.. and thanks.

No Joke I grew up watching you and you always make my day Now going to college and I feel a kid again

Brings back old memories. The inside rides at Trimpers haven't changed since the 60's!

🎶zombie to right of me, zombie to left of me here I am, stuck in the middle with you🎶

Love an old school dark ride

Love these old fashioned seaside fairgrounds, the haunted house i think is one of the best you’ve been on Jacob, and seemed like a really long ride, you have so many great places in America to visit soo good, very jealous loved the vlog, and your new little pal Joey, Thankyou Jacob

That looks like a pretty decent haunted dark ride.

Haunted House looks amazing!

What other youtuber just lets fans tag along?! Jacob's just the best! This will always be one of my favorite channels

When you visit the Gathering Place in Tulsa, make sure that you go in through the 31st St. entrance.

While I understand that you need to keep things up to date, there is simply nothing better than a fully vintage ghost train.

Your videos are wholesome,comforting and entertaining. Thank the you.

There’s a dark ride in Rehoboth Beach, DE at Funland.

Thank you sir for doing this ride been getting on it since was a child and now 65, A once-a-year destination for me even now!

I’ve been riding that Haunted House for 48 years! To this day, I still feel like I’m being “peed” on at the end ~ *. I bet you hit Ripleys while you were there!

That indoor part of the boardwalk looks awesome. I love those classic rides and the ones you filmed look like they’re in great shape. That place looked like a working museum.

I like the old amusement rides, they have a personality of their own and interesting looking. The enclosed area with children’s rides was real nice, they can still ride when it’s raining. Even the building itself was themed. Newer rides are kind of bland looking. Yeah, that last dark ride was of the traveling carnival rip-off kind but you were nice about it.

It's always nice to see more of these haunted attractions and also love you're videos carpetbagger keep up the good work :)

As a local from OC, MD, I can tell you that you should have seen the original Morbid Manor. It was the BEST walk through haunted house! It had real actors portraying the monsters and fear factors. Unfortunately, it burned down. It had been destroyed once by a hurricane and rebuilt, but the fire just destroyed too much & they decided not to rebuild. The fire was so bad it had even destroyed most of the water park they had right next to it. Such a shame.

The Haunted House is Epic! So Good! I wish I could find a video of the Little Rascals (or older) in the dark ride when they played hooky. Such a great 30's representation of this type of ride!!!

Whenever it comes to a haunted or any kind of dark ride, they will have compressed air and load horn sounds that Jake hates. 🤣🤣

This was awesome, love the boardwalk and all the rides. Brings back so many memories. Thank you.

Yay for dark rides! Yay for Jacob! 👻😁

From previous haunted ride videos I'm starting to gain a good understanding of how the props work.

Ocean City looks like a fun time. That was nice that you hung out with that kid. I hope I can run into you one day and hang out.

"Me...And My Shadow...Walking down the boardwalk..." Cool time he'll remember a while!

Yes!!!!! this is one of my favorite rides too especially when it rocks. The scary walk-through pirate theme around the corner is scary too

*Finishes ride and gets right back on.* I'm dying. 😂😂😂

I always went on this ride every year I went to OC, an absolute must

Am.. I the only one who needs these videos every single day

Not bad for $6. One of the best dark rides I've seen so far!👍

Awesome

You were back in OC? Awesome.

The dark rides at the Ventura County Fair used to scare the heck out of me. It’s too bad that it’s closed again this year due to Covid. If you ever have the chance to drive out this way, you should check out the Ventura County Fair in Ventura, CA. Lots to do, lots of exhibits and such. Hopefully it will open up next year.

Morbid manor used to be a walk through and had real actors at one point but burned down. Over the years the theme has changed MANY times. When I was younger I remember being able to see a dragon at the top of what I thought was a spiral lift? Either way there were also two dragons coming down the front back then too. Then it changed to morbid manor 2, then clowns took over, and now is the current version.

I love these places still exist And that they still attract guests is awesome.

of all the carney dark rides, Trimper's the best so far. never before have seen the speed drops on those types of rides. awesome!

Man! The Haunted House is so chock-full of content and ride. What a blast!

Very nice of you too tip the boardwalk performers great video jacob

good to see you made back to OC MD in the summer

The most iconic dark ride of all time! Bill Tracy’s Haunted House is an unmatched masterpiece! I have been riding it for 20 years!

That is a great dark ride. I haven't been in it but I'm glad to be shown it😊

The original walkthrough Morbid Manor from the late 70/early 80's literally scared the shit out of you. I was terrified of the place when I was a kid but kept going back year after year. It had live actors that were mostly local college theater students...they would grab you and lock you in pitch black rooms until you found the door to get out and chase you out of the place with a chainsaw....good times! Shame it burnt to the ground in the early 90's.

Did you check out Ripleys Believe it or not in Ocean City, MD? I love the shark sticking out of the building. Wild. .

Hi Jacob both you and Joey had fun thank you Sharing you videos with us

Cool little ocean side town and attractions, keep bringing it CB.

This has been a favorite of mine since I was a little girl. Every single year we go to Ocean City I would have to ride this ride about 10 times in a row each day. The smell alone is enough to creep you out If how ancient it is doesn't do it for you! A classic!!

Amazing indeed beautiful

Morbid Manor used to be a dark ride known as Ghost Mansion that would travel around North America.

THAT was a great ride through...

Love it!

Oh this was another awesome video Carpetbagger 💖 I loved the Dark rides but quite taken with the carousel, I've never seen a two storey one, it was beautiful 🎠💖

Trimper''s Haunted House is actually on a planned trip of mine in a short time! Great seeing this video.

Love it💀my favorite video!

Great dark rides. You had a little sidekick there for a while.

Love this vlog. I vacation in OCMD every year, and I was the only one in the family who would go with my nephew on the darks rides. Now that he is older, when we go to WDW, we make sure we are in the same Doom Buggy to keep up the tradition.

CARPET BAGGER THIS IS BEST FILMED EVER

i live in ocmd and thank you for doing amazing justice at showing off some of our attractions you rock

Classic Bill Tracey. Makes me miss the 3 lost Dorney attractions he did even more. The big skull was a signature of his and wound up in just about everything.

I live in New Jersey and ocean city and wild wood are my fav places to go in the summer

That was frigging awesome

That 1st dark ride was awesome. I see you have a companion . Love these dark rides. The walk through one was cool . I don't know if it was just me but didn't see much inside the last dark ride. I have never seen a double decker carasole before. That was so very cool. Those swings look awesome. Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤

I lived in Baltimore all my life and I've never been to Ocean City. Actually didn't have a desire to go until now once I've seen The Haunted House. Thanks for always providing great content Jacob!!

The scariest part of the ride is coming out on the top, and seeing the people on the boardwalk😱😝

I never been there but it looks like the best ride I've seen so far!

really enjoyed the lights-on walkthroughs of the other bill tracy rides you did. i never heard of him before, so it was fun and interesting to look at the history of these. i mean, i knew there was a company behind most of the classic designs, but didn't know who.

I been coming here for 36 years. I miss the real morbid manor. It burned down in the mid 90s. That was a really scary haunted house. And it doesn’t look right with the zipper, inverter and tilt a whirl gone at trimpers

It's awesome getting to see the rides that were at fairs when I was a kid again. This video rocks 🤘😜🤘

Ahhhh, this was so nice to see! A lot of my extended family owns/works at Trimpers! The heavy zombie usage in the Haunted House was added to try and capitalize on the Walking Dead craze and Pirate's Cove used to be a NIGHTMARE to get through- it was super easy to get lost in. I haven't been on Morbid Manor, so I don't know much about it. The Jolly Roger pier was supposed to help draw in teens, hence why there's a TON of games and more 'thrill' type rides over there. The main Trimpers building with the carousel and all are all vintage antique rides! Supposedly one of the horses on the carousel is haunted! Shame Aladdin's Lamp isn't still around, I think you would have loved it.

That looks like a fun ride I want to go see it someday

You would’ve loved Laff In The Dark at the old Long Beach Pike in LA. Too bad it’s long gone now. There are some great dark rides out there. Thanks for showing some of them. I always enjoy your videos. Especially the dark rides. Keep up the good work!

In the haunted house, I'm sure that man laughing was the same laugh as the one at the end of Michael Jackson's song THRILLER!?.

Awesome! Much like the old “Mystery Mansion” dark ride at Indiana Beach in Monticello Indiana... very cool, very nice!

*ride door opens* "Only a little dribble there" *other people waiting*- "what?!"

This is my first time seeing two stories carousel, that looks awesome too! 👀 Thank you always for the cool videos, Sir!

Love everything you do and I love you God bless you

I hope to go on a dark ride, love the vintage haunted house creators, thanks for sharing!

Looks like an excellent classic park to spend half a day at. :D

You gotta show more of the coasters, ppl love that stuff.

There use to be a walk through haunted house on the pier. And an Aladdin them fun house by pirate's cove. The haunted house was always my fave too.

If you’re on the Boardwalk, you must get Thrasher’s Fries

Thanks for coming to our state!! I live in Baltimore… I am opening my own haunted house attraction. I hope I have the honour of a visit from you one day

Underground Railroad in Adventureland, Ankeny Iowa is my favorite dark mini roller coaster ride!
