Very nice work on the video, glad you could use my footage! I can deffinetly say Singing Sam CRUSHED that spot, I mean, I don't find any animatronics scary, but god, he'd be my pick on that too. It's like the Lion of Gripsholm Castle.
Honestly with the sheer amount of FNAF fan games out there, one based on Jungle Jims and Stew Leonard’s is honestly a pretty creative and novel idea and surprised it hasn’t been done before.
Yoooo, I wasn’t expecting the Campbell Soup Can to be here! But yeah, Jungle Jim’s is really cool. I was never really terrified by the Campbell Soup Can, but I can see why folks would find him creepy. Also, Woody the tree kind of reminds me of that one tree animatronic at Efteling.
I'm guessing the spider anamatronic is meant to be Arachne. In Greek mythology, she was a boastful weaver who challenged the goddess Athena to a weaving contest. When she lost, Athena turned her into a spider for her arrogance. That's my guess anyways
Although I like the new Sam design, I do feel sort of bad for the old one. Poor guy was clearly not being taken care of and it breaks y heart seeing things created to cause joy and wonder become nightmarish
That original gorilla animatronic on the piano looks like something straight from Sam Raimi's Evil Dead. And that one with the skunks squirting you was definitely an original idea. Whether you like getting hit with water from that area of an animatronic or not. Definitely a travel story when you get back home.
Jungle Jim's is a really cool chain of 2 stores. Besides all the wacky animatronics and a working monorail at the main location, they have very well stocked selection of specialty and international food. Like I just picked up some Ube flavoring for my coffee my last trip from their Philippines section. And the best part? They are very competitive pricing wise too.
While I do admit the Avocado Girls are very uncanny valley, I do love the rest of the Stew Leonard's animatronics. ESPECIALLY the Farm Fresh Five! Not only do they have cute designs in my opinion, but they remind me of Veggietales, Kitchen Kabaret, Food Rocks, and The California Raisins [I'm surprised the Raisins never had animatronics given how huge they were during the 80s]. A Stew Leonard's video would be amazing IMO, maybe I'm biased because of my adoration of the Farm Fresh Five and anthropomorphic food characters. I love anthropomorphic food characters and can't get enough of them. Honestly, I wish Disney could make an updated Kitchen Kabaret/Food Rocks hybrid with characters and elements form both shows, that would be a dream come true for me!
Our West Edmonton Mall Scotiabank movie theatre (used to be Silver City) used to have an animatronic dragon in the lobby. She was on top of the main concession. Down the long hallway, there's a smaller concession with two baby dragon heads on top. It's not being used, but the babies are still there. The big concession was moved to the wall and the dragon, named Excalibur, was removed. She used to terrify me as a kid (hid in the bathroom), but then I fell in love with her. No maintenance was done on her and because she was above the concession, her skin attracted oils from the food and I heard it would fall onto guests making it a health hazard. Still, it was sad to see her go.
I did NOT expect to see Stew Leonard’s in one of Theme Park’s vids but I’m so glad it did. Makes sense since he’s a Connecticut resident. Used to go to Stew Leonard’s all the time as a kid. Please cover them for a video!!!
I have crippling arachnophobia and I went on that Greek mythology themed dark ride once. Once was more than enough for me because that demonic spider thing terrified me so much! 😱😰
so, i already have issues with those industrial like ceilings in stores...it freaks me out for some reason....but watching that can swing slowly infront of it....nightmareish... also singing sam is definetly the most disturbing animatronic ive ever seen....the better kept one is not as bad, but the ape shadow illuminated by red light while sam slowly turns to look at you? satanic..... 12:44 .......o_o
Wall Drug is a fun place and I've been there once. Their claim to fame is free ice cold water and they do not disappoint. Also worth mentioning is they have a vintage animatronic cowboy band that was apparently somehow stolen from a department store back in the day.
I’d like to give a shout out to the animatronics in The Atlantis Show in the Shops at Caesar’s Palace in Vegas. Stumbled upon them when I was there a few months ago, and was very disturbed by their jerky movements, expressionless faces, and the fact that one of them is wielding a flame thrower.
I was wondering if Sam was going to make the #1 spot! Just got back from Wall Drug this Summer (I live two hours away from that place too) to visit our favorite T-Rex. I remember as a kid in the 80s thinking Sam was TERRIFYING!
Man, Martin Short loves appearing in theme park attractions. You used to be able to find him in Epcot in two different places as well as the problematic Busch Gardens ride!
You mentioned the Stew Leonard’s in Norwalk, CT, but I’ve personally been to the store in East Meadow, NY more times than I can count, and the Avocado Girls are there, too! They’re positioned on a stage directly above where you can find premade fruit salads, so at least they’re higher up.
Been a massive fan of your channel for a long time and beyond honoured that you asked to use some of my content in your latest video! Love a good (or terrifying) animatronic!!!
I must've seen the updated version of Singing Sam when I was a kid, as I don't remember him looking so stilted when he was playing his piano. From my memory, he actually looked like he was playing the piano. Interestingly, this gorilla is my clearest memory of the Wall Drug Store. I don't even remember the T-Rex, which, from the footage I've seen, seemed to have been intentionally added to scare kids.
I think the Greek-themed Laberinto Del Minotaur spider animatronic is supposed to be Arachne, a woman mythologized to be so good at weaving that she rivaled the Goddess Athena so Athena turned her into a spider! 🕷️🕸️🎃
Also, my favorite unsettling animatronics are ALL at Storyland! The Sunflower, Tim Tree, Humpty Dumpty, the vegetables... I am so drawn to unsettling animatronics and I was truly blessed to have frequented a place to find them.
Singing Sam looks MUCH better when he's taken care of; still a bit strange and disproportionate, but definitely friendly. The Wall Drug one looked like a corpse...
One thing that gave me nightmares as a kid are two different attractions at Germany's Steinwasen park. One of them was a now defunct darkride called "Sagenhafte Schwarzwaldbahn" (or something) but it terrified me with its simple yet scary animatronics. The park also had a walkthrough based on animals from the the cold north and the ice age, including a big terrifying Yeti. Also, we do have stores filled with animatronics over here in the Netherlands too, the Hoogvliet stores have them. I don't know why, but I do know that their songs are on spotify so that is neat
I’m SO glad you brought up Stew Leonard’s. I’m very well acquainted with Norwalk as my dad’s family lives up there, and they often get groceries from Stew Leonard’s. Every time I went there the animatronics would terrify me- all of them, no exceptions, and I’ve always hated going to that store. As much as I like animatronics, to me they really don’t belong in a supermarket.
I'd give an honorable mention to the "zombie boy" from the music video for Interpol's "evil". Apparently it actually got saved and restored but not sure. It is a CREEPY one, especially with the puppet-body below it (and the wires removed in the video)
Glad to see Bubba and Ricochet mentioned somewhere! I visited them this August and was surprised I'd never heard of them before. My first thought was that they had taxidermy parts for the faces, especially the jaw-sets, which wouldn't be surprising considering their location.
2:45 the can animatronic is HUGE in person! I had no idea it would be when I first visited Jungle Jims about a year ago. Thought it would be a more normal size for some reason lol. I had only seen pictures. I could NOT take my eyes off of it. So creepy.. I loved it 😂
Please!! Please do a Stew's video! This was my grocery store growing up in Norwalk CT. I got my first job pulling ice cream cones and making cow popcorn at the Danbury store!! So many great memories! Thanks for the great video!😊
Always enjoy your videos when they appear in my subscriptions! In a world full of bad news and reactive media, your channel really stands out. Just feel good vibes and interesting facts. :)
During the COVID lockdowns, I went to Jungle Jims Sept. 2020 as a way to get out of the house. That Campbell's Soup can is among the photos I took while was there.
If you ever do a top 10 shark anamictronic video, please add the shark animatronic at seaport village golf at ocean city NJ boradwalk. It gave me a lot of submechanophobia when I was young.
I'd assume that the clock face might be somewhere non-public, if it's that iconic they probably didn't scrap it (unless it was worn out or so). Did you consider contacting the store/company and asking?
OMG That soup can! I got real excited to see that in the thumbnail because I've actually been to Jungle Jim's quite a few times. I'm from central Ohio, so it's still a bit of a trip but it's still within reasonable distance. The place really is neat! I recommend going there at least once in your life. Love checking out the verity of snacks and sodas they have. They got a lot of stuff there. Anyway their bathroom are cool too. The entrance is designed to look like a port-a-potty.
I loved going to stew Leonard's as a kid and at times there were many of the animatronics broken and frozen in a mid song pose and they looked the petrified into that position forever doomed to watch shoppers.
Laberinto del Minotauro is probably the ride that started my love for dark rides and animatronics, the first time I rode it as a kid I was blown away. For a while now I have the theory that the Spider is a reference to the myth of Arachne, who was turned into a spider by Athena and is usually turned into a mosntruous spider in adaptations of the myth. PD In the past Terra Mitica had another (semi) dark ride El Rescate de Ulises, based on the Odyssey wich also had it's fair share of creepy animatronics and scenes, with some submechanophobia too, sadly it closed after the covid lockdown. And yeah, the park's history is...interesting
The original singing, Sam used an actual gorilla carcass if I remember correctly, which is why it ended up looking so freaky. it’s definitely disturbing but I find the avocado girls to be even worse
Stew Leonard’s is a northeast staple! I’m from nyc and went there with my parents annually as a kid. I’m weirdly comforted by all the animatronics lol. PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON THESE. the FAO Schwartz one took me back too.
Wall drug was a place I went o every year! I don’t think I ever processed singing Sam maybe he’d already been replaced by then or maybe my parents were smart and steered me clear of him whenever we went but it’s so nice to see anyone talking about wall drug it’s such a fun place to go :)
I grew going to Jungle Jim's fairly often. It once started moving/talking while I walked under it and the scream/run away I did as a 9 year old embarrassed my mom. The thing that really freaked me out was the Robin Hood animatronic.
There was an FAO Schwartz at Circle Center Mall in downtown Indianapolis when I was a kid. The talking clock was the first thing you saw when you walked in to the store. Good memories.
Worked at Storyland over the summer, and I dreaded walking by Melody Farms because of Hap the Happy Farm Boy. If you want worse, check out the Farm Follies animatronic show at the park!
I work in a rec center near distortions main location, they donated an “elf” for us to use in christmas decor and it sent several kids home crying, we used to scare each other with it before it “disappeared”
Story Land! That place is amazing! There were older animatronics in a ride called Voyage to the Moon that were pretty creepy. There was a cloud that scared the heck out of me as a kid. The whole ride is up here on YT. Also, Story Land has a clock similar to the one in the FAO store. Story Land's version has numbers instead of the Roman numerals. If I'm not mistaken, the numbers are static too.
I shopped at Homeland regularly when it still had the animatronics. It was a singular band of fruit and veggies; and as I recall, there were characters reminiscent of Hap and the Avocado Girls. Very uncanny and unsettling, and I've been to Jungle Jim's a couple of times. 😜
I have an idea for a video. How about history of Geauga Lake amusement park and of course after the name change Six Flags Ohio. I never hear anybody mention Raging Wolfe Bobs or Villain coasters or Big Dipper. This park had some great coasters. Love your channel
Happy Halloween everyone! And happy Day of the Dead too!🎃🎃🦇🦇👻👻
Thanks you too :)
OMG NOOOO I LOVE THE SINGING VEGETABLES!!!!
The singing vegetables used to visit the Spencer Fair and also the Big E
Thanks Dude
Same to you
0:40 Theme Park Crazy: At this rate i'm on my way to making a top 10 shark animatronic video.
Me: *I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK-*
Very nice work on the video, glad you could use my footage!

Yessss you are correct
And the wise tree from the jungle restaurant at Disneyland or Disney world.
Big Carpetbagger fan. Love the fact that a lot of your footage comes from him!
The Campbell Soup Can actually looks pretty cute when compared to some of the others on this list.
I'm guessing the spider anamatronic is meant to be Arachne. In Greek mythology, she was a boastful weaver who challenged the goddess Athena to a weaving contest. When she lost, Athena turned her into a spider for her arrogance. That's my guess anyways
Yeah, I thought the same
Although I like the new Sam design, I do feel sort of bad for the old one. Poor guy was clearly not being taken care of and it breaks y heart seeing things created to cause joy and wonder become nightmarish
Like my grandma! 💔
That original gorilla animatronic on the piano looks like something straight from Sam Raimi's Evil Dead.

another funny thing about Knife Works, you can buy dinosaur fossils, various war relics, and Pokemon Cards
I'd love to visit. I love knives.
@@etinarcadiaego7424 last time I went I almost bought a replica Halo Energy sword, and a Paradox Riff Elite Trainer Box 😅
While I do admit the Avocado Girls are very uncanny valley, I do love the rest of the Stew Leonard's animatronics. ESPECIALLY the Farm Fresh Five!

I always though Hap the happy farm boy was a pumpkin with legs lol
Fruits and vegetables play together, I can see that Hap could be a pumpkin, lol
me too
or a peach or orange
Singing Sam is pure nightmare fuel. The arms give me the heebie jeebies
For me it's the way he slowly turns his head to show his really uncanny face and his wide open jaw
Ive friven past that mini golf course for the past 6 years and didn't realise theres animatronics there. Gonna check it out!
5:30 A scarecrow? He's look more like a peach!

Nope! I noticed that too!

OH MY GOD SAM IS HORRIFYING
i never thought i'd wish a thumbnail *was* AI

I went to storyland this year with my family. It’s pretty fun and there’s a few more animatronics that are there.
4:23 SKUNKIES!!!!! I love skunkies
SAME
Aww yay! I always love when you use Carpetbagger's footage! ❤❤ Awesome video dude. Woody and the Avocado Girls were a bit unnerving. 😅
Hey! Could you maybe talk about the new monorail dueling coasters coming to walibi Holland in 2025? Would be cool if you did.
Love your content btw!
I think the Greek-themed Laberinto Del Minotaur spider animatronic is supposed to be Arachne, a woman mythologized to be so good at weaving that she rivaled the Goddess Athena so Athena turned her into a spider! 🕷️🕸️🎃
That would explain its humanoid face!
Your videos are always admired for their professionalism and creativity. Thank you for your dedication!🙉🦖🐹
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
10:12 Jeez, Martin Short on dark rides are crazy, first The Making of Me and now this.
(Although not a dark ride) wait till you find out about Cinemagique.
Jungle Jims is a treasure trove of Cincinnati amusement park history. They put candy on the old bumper cars from Coney Island
Also, my favorite unsettling animatronics are ALL at Storyland! The Sunflower, Tim Tree, Humpty Dumpty, the vegetables... I am so drawn to unsettling animatronics and I was truly blessed to have frequented a place to find them.

ALSO! I knew I recognized the FAO Schwartz clock. It's at Storyland!
Aaaaaa the clock at FAO Schwartz xO it gave me nightmares as a kid back in the 90's

I love how you say "never heard of before" but that soup can on the thumbnail is literally at one of my local grocerie stores!
I was just thinking of Distortions the other day and wondering if they were still around. How funny to find out from your channel.
i'll be seeing that shark at 0:32 very soon 👀 (i'm going to alton on sunday)
Theme Park Crazy: Where is a Stew Leanords FNAF game?
Me: Ok let me cook
Stew Leonard’s is a northeast staple! I’m from nyc and went there with my parents annually as a kid. I’m weirdly comforted by all the animatronics lol. PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON THESE. the FAO Schwartz one took me back too.

There was an FAO Schwartz at Circle Center Mall in downtown Indianapolis when I was a kid. The talking clock was the first thing you saw when you walked in to the store. Good memories.
The Campbell's soup can also used to move it's mouth to talk/sing.
The Mario kart song chapters is crazy
Hap the Happy Farm Boy looks like if the Annoying Orange had a baby with Jay Jay the Jet Plane.
Thank you for pro oun ing the park name for evil spider right! You made my day with that!
Worked at Storyland over the summer, and I dreaded walking by Melody Farms because of Hap the Happy Farm Boy. If you want worse, check out the Farm Follies animatronic show at the park!
You need to check out Woody the Christmas Tree in Dartmouth Nova Scotia's Mic Mac Mall.
That one is freaky as hell. I was so disappointed that Jimmy Fallon already talked about him but I'd love to bring him up in a future video.
@@ThemeParkCrazy The original is creepier than the new guy, but we go pay tribute so he doesn’t eat our souls.
As someone who's been to jungle Jim's. I am scared of that soup man. He's GIANT too. Gives me the creeps
The gorilla on top of the Jungle Fun Haus at York’s Wild Kingdom in York, Maine still haunts my nightmares 18 years later
I work in a rec center near distortions main location, they donated an “elf” for us to use in christmas decor and it sent several kids home crying, we used to scare each other with it before it “disappeared”
Jungle Jim's also has a King animatronic from Chuck E. Cheese!
2:42 I've been to Jungle Jim's a few times, and I've seen that soup can several times! I even have a photo of it!
That's also the Jungle Jim's we always go to
