Title: Haunted House
Post by: DocSpeleo on June 03, 2008, 04:01:48 PM
I was looking at the paintings on the inside of the ticket booths and some old park maps and there was a Haunted House... I believe I also read a slight blurb about it in the Silver Dollar City book. 
Anyone know anything about a Haunted House in the city?

Grandfathers was sort of billed as a house of mystery and is in the ticket booths, but there has never been a haunted house unless you count the hatfield haint show, or Rockie the racoon "ghost" at the root beer factory. Then again there was Matilda Jones the ghost on the Owens float trip loking for her husband Pudgie in a whole cave of ghosts....Hmmm

Old Guy, can you tell us more about Rockie the racoon "ghost" at the root beer factory?  That sounds like an interesting tale.

^Thanks, Old Guy!  Such a clever racoon, pretending to be a ghost by wearing a white sheet.  ;)
