  • @artistseesred
    @artistseesred 8 лет назад +4

    Another great video! What I wonder is how long they really expected the place to last. A haunted house is fun, but does not seem like something that would bring in a lot of people except around Halloween. It would be fascinating to know where the owners are now and what they are doing.

  • @milliehayes
    @milliehayes 7 лет назад +11

    "Possum Kingdom" gets its name from a lake resort area in Texas, which, if I understand or remember correctly, had some serial killer activity and inspired the song.
    Either way, this place was cool

    • @Strawhatkee

    • @Savagemister
      @Savagemister 6 лет назад +2

      ...but the band The Toadies were from Fort Worth Texas. Millie is correct. It's about Possum Kingdaom Lake. "Around the lake tonight...."

      @TheAshypoo 6 лет назад +2

      It looks like they spent a total of like $25 dollars on the props. That and/or stole mannequins. I'm terrified of haunted houses/attractions, but the only thing that scared me (for like a second) is when the door slam shut. 10/10 would NOT recommend.

  • @Savagemister
    @Savagemister 6 лет назад +1

    You mention the Toadies song "Possum Kingdom", but I bet they were talking about Possum Kingdom Lake here in Texas near Mineral Wells since the band was from Fort Worth. You should come check it out and out by the boathouse, you'll learn the dark secret.

    • @TheCarpetbagger
      @TheCarpetbagger  6 лет назад

      Toadies song was actually named after the lake

    That place is thoroughly meta; an abandoned decaying place that was meant to look abandoned and decaying when it was in use. You can't tell what's deliberate from what's the result of being actually abandoned...

  • @DawnNunoBettencourtGal
