gafreak 22 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 The new halloween spotlight is awsome, its really cool to see how far the park has come with the event since halloweekends! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
29yrswithaGApass 1,414 Posted October 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I was rummaging through some old Halloween related CDs of mine and ran across Van Helsing's Curse. I bought this CD at Great Adventure back in 2003 when the park had the Van Helsing's Curse Fireworks Spectacular. Prior to Saturday Night Lights, this was probably they most powerful fireworks show at the park. I remember thinking, 'wow, this is kind of a dark theme', but it worked and the audiences really liked it. Click HERE to hear some samples of the music on Amazon. The intorduction (Patience) and the first song (Tubular Hell) sort of set the tone of the show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ThemeParkRider 9 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I have a question. Does anyone know the name of ther song they play in the "Bone Butcher" area? It's a song with loud drums and an orchestra sound. If anyone knows that would be helpful, because I'm assembling another video for this year's fright fest and I considered using that song.

gafreak 22 Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 The proffesor Slithers show is probably the best show the park has next to DMP, i think this year the dancers are singing because the tracks from last year were the actually artists, but this year it sounds like the dancers are the ones singing.

29yrswithaGApass 1,414 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Anyone remember this guy? I rediscovered the negatives to all my Great Adventure photos from days of film and realized there are a bunch that I never scanned! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Master 134 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I remember Pumpkin Head at GADV, the Creature From The Black Lagoon also used to show up during FF. The park used to decorate so much better back in the 90s than they do now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
29yrswithaGApass 1,414 Posted March 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Does anyone recall the high-energy show Dr. Frights Final Freakout from around 1999 which was performed on a stage over the fountain during Fright Fest? The show was performed after the fireworks at closing time. We recently were able to transfer a recording of the show that we will post soon. Fans of Dead Man's Party will be surprised to learn what they are missing today. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pashacar 58 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 The Executioner show was the best!! I watched that year after year and (as a kid) could NEVER figure out the various illusions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

29yrswithaGApass 1,414 Posted October 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Here is a video of 1996's Hayride to the Unknown - The Nightmare. The footage was shot in the daylight which makes the scenery a little easier to see but cuts down on the scare factor. Click below to view the hayride video: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
