R.I.P. Rocky Point

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

One of the nation's biggest and best attractions is going belly up this year. Well more like retiring. This 20 year old attraction will be closing it's doors this year. According to the article: " Like a network executive pulling the plug on a sitcom at the height of its ratings, Cydney Neil will close Rocky Point Haunted House after its 2006 season. Neil said Monday the event has reached the end of its natural life, and she couldn't possibly sell "her baby" to another fright master. She plans to go out with a bang and then give her progeny a proper burial."

"The 26th and final season will feature a "Pirates of the Scaribbean" attraction, which replaces a "Lord of the Rings" set, in addition to its mainstay sections. They include a slasher wax museum, Freddy Krueger's neighborhood and a haunted mansion. The season begins Sept. 1 and closes Halloween night, but Rocky Point will reopen in May for "Scream Break," a two-week run of the haunted house, and a big funeral."

Pretty cool that it got picked up by some major newspapers in the state of Utah.....anyone go this in the past?
