Spooktacular: Prepare to be Mildly Spooked by This Documentary About America’s “First” (and Probably Last) Horror Theme Park

maxresdefault

Oh, honey, get ready for the most terrifying thing you’ll see all year: a documentary about a theme park.😱 Spooktacular!, because apparently, “Spectacular!” was just too mainstream, unravels the spine-chilling tale of SpookyWorld, America’s *first* horror theme park. Because, you know, haunted houses weren’t enough.🙄 Launched by some dude named David Bertolino in the ancient year of 1991, it somehow managed to trick a million people into thinking it was a good idea over 11 years. Eleven years! That’s like, the entire decade of the ’90s! And it apparently defined ’90s horror culture. So basically, flannel shirts and bad CGI? Got it.👍

Spooktacular! dives into the origins of America’s first horror theme park, SpookyWorld. Launched in 1991 by David Bertolino, it drew over a million thrill-seekers in 11 years and defined ‘90s horror culture.

Featuring icons like Tom Savini, Alice Cooper, Elvira, and Linda Blair, this doc is a nostalgic scream-fest for horror fans. Like, seriously? Tom Savini? I bet he’s just thrilled to be associated with a documentary about a defunct theme park.😂 Alice Cooper probably needed the money, Elvira is contractually obligated to show up at anything remotely spooky, and Linda Blair… well, at least it’s not another pea soup commercial. 🤢 This doc is a “nostalgic scream-fest,” which I assume means you’ll be screaming at the screen asking for your wasted time back.⏰

Spooktacular hits Digital on 3rd October. Mark your calendars, folks! October 3rd is the day you can finally stream the documentary about the thing you didn’t know existed and definitely didn’t ask for. 🎉 I’m sure it’ll be riveting, edge-of-your-seat stuff. Or, you know, you could just re-watch *The Exorcist* for the 50th time. Your call.🤷‍♀️
