Many Tracy rides include a Skull Swamp. Riders have both an above view and an up-close view of the swamp. How come the Whacky Shack at Waldameer only has you pass it on the ground floor and not the upper story? I'm positive I'm not missing any stunt when riding. Speaking of the Skull Swamp, it wasn't until last summer when I found out the car goes on a wooden bridge over the swamp. I never really noticed. My sister told me and I was surprised she noticed it, because she really doesn't like the whole haunted house ride idea. -Skull Swamp- Phantasmagoria: www.angelfire.com/notlmpresed/phantasmagoria/w08o.jpgJoyland Whacky Shack: www.angelfire.com/notlmpresed/joylandwhackyshack/joyland19.jpgWaldameer Whacky Shack: (Okay, for some reason when I click the photo of the Skull Swamp in the projects section, it just shows a blury photo of the 4th picture.): www.laffinthedark.com/articles/waldameer/wacky08.jpg

Tracy liked to build similar attractions, but he also liked to change them up enough so that no two were exactly the same. For example, the two surviving Pirates Coves are very similar, but different. It is very cool to compare and contrast them in person! For whatever reason, the Waldameer Whacky Shack just doesn't have an upper level view of Skull Swamp. Thanks for pointing out the error on the Waldameer photo gallery.

Oh wow! I can't wait to see the eyes finally doing their job! One other question I want to ask you. A friend of mine said that when he was pushing the cars out into the lobby for maintenance, he did in fact see the skeleton outhouse after the tilt room, before the bartender. Now is it really still there is he just pulling my leg?
