Canobie Lake Park - Mine of Lost Souls Dark Ride - Plus Much More!

[@FatherAxeKeeper]

the young dudes being so enthusiastic about an old coaster was awesome. love to see it.

[@alberttetley]

The Caterpillar ride is a vintage flat ride engineered by the inventor Hyla F. Maynes of North Tonawanda, New York, who dubbed it the Caterpillar when it debuted in Coney Island, New York in 1925.

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

Brilliant! Thank you for this information although a big part of me prefers Carpetbaggers description of "a ride for people who don't like scenery" 🤣 it's such a delightful ride 💖

[@Miner-zn4lt]

Its also one of 2 left in operation

[@Heatherofscots]

I know I have been on one of these as a kid. I think it would have been at Kennywood.

[@wiifitt]

Man, I thought that was bs, but they literally just filmed in front of the canobie corkscrew (not featured) and nothing else. How bizarre. It appears that the marketing firm the company hired was Boston based. They must have simply looked up the most intimidating coaster in the area, with the best filming angle and decided to film there.

[@RobertTheHaunter]

Hey Jacob! Thanks for coming to visit my home! Was a pleasure meeting you! - the antique autos guy

[@LockeDemosthenes2]

My Wife was epileptic, and it makes me happy when I see people actually putting flashing light warnings before videos.

[@Jay-wk9xj]

The Turkish twist has been a right of passage for teenagers in New England for the past 40 years... It's no joke

[@melaniedavis-kay7599]

This was my hometown amusement park. My class went there every year before the last day of school. You basically went on every ride that I was afraid of going on when I was a kind, sans the corkscrew. Thank you for this blast from the past!

[@affectiveobserver]

That dark ride is like Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, and The Mummy combined!

[@KrystalHarwood-z1b]

and long before that there was a huge spider and a pirate ship

[@joelindsey8585]

Cavalier "that wasn't that bad" after screaming in terror. Lol classic

[@raynagel7462]

I thought that was hilarious!

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

Totally Carpetbagger 🤣🤣

[@blueskyciara]

The fried dough and giant popcorn bucket looked straight out of Rollercoaster Tycoon 2

[@seanwilkins3937]

One of the game trailers for roller coaster tycoon was filmed here, fun fact

[@Francine7]

And the one with the shark reminded me of the game too.

[@jezze875]

The commercial for that game was filmed at Canobie Lake Park, that could be why.

[@KrystalHarwood-z1b]

when i was a kid i would ride that mine like five times in a row but the shooting gallery used to scare the heck outta me. that buzzard on the tree hehe

[@DeadlyComicsYT]

My hometown park! So glad you made it out there!

[@beaudsvt]

hello fellow NH resident

[@nmlepage]

Well hello there! It's wicked cool that he came out to NH for Canobie Lake Park!

[@TheCarpetbagger]

Amazing place!

[@TheOnlyBongo]

One of my favorite animators and one of my favorite bloggers meld in one place!

[@AXforever7]

Mine too usually go there for Screamfest

[@mattrost2574]

"A ride for people who don't like scenery." Best line EVER!

[@CaryUSA2007]

Jacob your reactions to the rides are more fun than the rides themselves lol Love your child-like enthusiasm :)

[@eledatowle7128]

"What is a Psychodrome?" Everyone in northern New England grins evilly, knowing exactly what you're in for. Funtown in Saco, Maine, used to have the same ride, called the Stratosphere, except that one featured deafening heavy metal music and random terrifying images projected onto the inside of the dome, along with the flashing lights. (Chicken being beheaded, anyone?) Those rides are an experience, for sure.

[@markandrews863]

You are the creator of bucket list. Love the older parks. Great job again Jacob !

[@michaelaschaaf2913]

So fun to see vlogs in all of my childhood parks recently - hope you're enjoying your time in the North!

[@lorrainethepain]

Those kids on the roller coaster were hysterical...

[@Gabrielaaboo17]

couple of bros lol , made me laugh

[@michaelboyd7727]

Finally in my neck of the woods!! I’ve asked for this video forever so glad you came!

[@AdmiralPreparedness]

Me too!!

[@nathanbugg3221]

The two guys on the coaster were great. This was a great video. Thanks for the fun.

[@TownieGirl1974]

I love that you are in NH & that you actually went to & featured Canobie Lake Park. I go to Canobie Lake Park at least once every summer. Soon they'll be transferring over to Halloween there too. It's called Screamfest as you saw & it's amazing. I could be wrong, but I think Labor Day weekend is actually the last weekend that Canobie Lake Park is open for the summer. I think once they close after this weekend, that's when they start to transfer over for Screamfest which actually opens just in a couple of weeks.

[@spookymummabaker9678]

I asked them. Screemfest starts sept 25th!

[@TownieGirl1974]

@@spookymummabaker9678 Oh awesome! Thank you for letting me know! That me & my husband's wedding anniversary! I think I know how we're going to spend our anniversary this year. Best part is we have relatives who live 5 minutes away from Canobie Lake, so we'll probably stay with them that night so we don't have to drive home to Boston once the park closes for the night.

[@jenny2282]

I used to go ever summer when I was a kid. Love that place! 💗💗💗💗

[@badtriceratops1867]

Thank you for going on all those terrifying rides for us!

[@emilyt3377]

I appreciate that he goes on rides that I wouldn’t be physically able to go on ( mobility issues).

[@Dogtoupee]

Hey there Carpet bagger ! So i went to the mine of lost souls last week 08/31/21 and i went on youtube last week and searched to see if you came here and you didnt. Today i see that you just came over to my neck of the woods to ride my beloved mine of lost souls. its a great ride, i love how the bolders just scare the crap out of you and the ghosts are just pretty chill. Ive been a resident of MA and have been riding this dark ride my whole life. Thank you for coming to visit and documenting this WONDERUS occasion :] . This seriously has made my day. I think this may be the best ride in New England. thank you again

[@TheSassy777]

Looks like Fun. Great to see these parks being open!!!! THANKS

[@andrewvarney5687]

That Dark Ride looks awesome (The Egyptian Tomb bit is quite random, but so cool), also the Caterpillar ride is rather distinct. Finally loved the reactions to Turkish Twist, Psycho Drome, Untamed, and Yankee Cannonball!!!

[@chadillacinc]

I was just there with my daughter! Had a feeling you would be in the Northeast soon. Too bad we missed you. We love canobie.

[@PrimalxxFear]

Yay you’re up my way! I always went there every summer with my camp as a kid. It’s amazing how much it has expanded and changed in just the past few years! If they are doing it this year, you should go in October for the haunted house!

[@Gokenshiba]

I loved untamed

[@bryandacote8109]

Same here! Haven't been to Canobie in like 9 years since they unveiled Untamed.

[@saxonrulesrock]

Really enjoyed this Jacob. Canobie was our home park

[@krystalharwood6359]

i loved this ride! went on it multiple times in one day at the park! lol

[@kcphotographystudios8836]

Drome is a suffix, means “ running course “ is in Hippodrome. (Greek chariot and horse racing course)

[@UweJMeyer]

Thanks Jacob for the tortment of a rollercoaster you take for us. Greatings from Germany 👍🇺🇸🇩🇪

[@sarahchamberlain4599]

I love how he goes on rides he hates just so we can see what the ride is like. You're the best Jacob!

[@TerryFedora]

Love the two lads at the roller coaster. Just super silly and fun dudes.

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

Yeah, I hope they find the video of themselves 😊

[@curri189]

Those food stands look straight out of Roller Coaster Tycoon, I love it

[@adkleiner]

So glad you could visit our local amusement park! Great wooden coaster!

[@frankhenrystruck2nd266]

You make haunted houses and roller-coaster rides so much better to watch

[@lauriehoule9889]

Went here a few years back with my girls, I’m a huge dark ride fan so that was my favorite ride, beautiful clean park

[@njmcd]

Spent many hours here as a kid. Wonderful memories!

[@shauno5888]

I haven't been to Canobie in forever. The Lost Souls is my favorite haunted house of all time. Good to know that the Turkish Twist is still there. I might have to take a trip out sometime this summer.

[@sweetchocolatesecret]

I LOVE Canobie Lake!! I used to go on field trips here when I was a kid 💖😭💖

[@sweetchocolatesecret]

Those kids at the end remind me of my classmates! Man this whole video took me back!!

[@allenperreault7825]

Thanks Jacob. When we used to live in Mass, my family would take me up their to Canobie Lake Park. In fact, I had my first date there with my late wife and her two boys. (I have one boy myself). Thanks again.

[@maryKlife]

every summer growing up and school field trips, Love Canobie! Yes chickens can fly, somewhat, not like those though... so much fun! Thanks for sharing

[@seagate1686]

Love it! Very old school. They had a caterpiller ride at old Norumbega Park in Newton, MA You made my day!!

[@digitalmeowmix]

I went to Canobie many times as a child and I went on school trips there at the end of every year. After high school I worked there one summer in the Kiddie Land area as my first job . The Turkish Twist is one of my fave rides. Kids use to try and stand upside down or in cool poses but operators make you stand straight these days . if you stand on the bridge of the Boston Tea Party and get splashed you will be soaked for the rest of the day and on a hot day it’s a relief and you will dry quickly .There is slight scent of molasses piped in the Boston Tea Party area to reference The Great Molasses Flood . The Yankee Cannon Ball was my first big rollercoaster as a kid. I’m so glad to see this and relive childhood memories even thought I’m late . I’m gonna try to go again this summer !

[@marksmith6289]

I really love you Jacob you stick by your guns don't use profanity and are positive thinker very kind it's always a pleasure being around you

[@charlieevilpig7776]

I always loved the caterpillar ride at the Clark County fair and the Ohio state fair many years ago!

[@bartplays3392]

Never heard of this place

[@PhotoGearFun]

I grew up in NH and have been to Canobie Lake many times. We always pronounced it Can-O-Bee. I live in NC now and was back in NH this summer and heard an ad on the radio and they pronounced it the same way you did in the intro. I was shocked to hear the way they said it on the radio but then thought ok maybe we have been saying it wrong all these years. Thanks for the great video bringing back to the days of my childhood. Cheers.

[@ghostlyburger]

This is where my husband and I had our first date. I love this park.

[@spookymummabaker9678]

I’m crying. Finally a video at my favorite place on earth. Wish I got to meet you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@prairie1565]

The scrambler was always my favorite ride!!! Times in our country are so low right now so thank you for the much needed distraction. I feel a whole lot better 😁❤️😁❤️

[@sfurgas]

I recognized the caterpillar as soon as I saw the cover. Used to ride one at Idora Park in Youngstown, OH back in the day. The ride is best at night as the cover makes it pitch black inside. It's a make-out ride, once the cover is on, you go to fun town.

[@alisoncrampton6849]

When I was a child we went to Belle Vue amusement park near Manchester England . They had a caterpillar ride and I was sick as a dog 😂😂. Oh and hello from northern England xx

[@jeffeckrich2637]

What a cool beautiful park! Loved the dark ride!

[@photorebelos3552]

AAAAH CANOBIE!!! I’m sitting here this morning wearing my oversized hoodie from a field trip there years ago and watching this. It brings back memories I didn’t realize I still had. I’m glad you got to make it out there!

[@Sparty-pi3jq]

Being an ex fighter jock, I get my entertainment on roller coasters, by watching and listening to those around me. Sitting next to Jacob would make my day!

[@Callie83]

8:20 You can't tell me you weren't looking too! 🍑 Won't see that at any SF Hurricane Harbor.

[@BulletAgario]

Instantly paused😂

[@jmorgan5252]

Hi Jacob! Yes chickens can fly a short distance and a drome is a large structure at an airport where aircraft can be stored and maintained

[@petetrbovich7575]

Thank you once again, Jake, for subjecting yourself to torture for our amusement. PSYCHO DROOOME!

[@alphagenesis8796]

Welcome to NH!! I love Canobie and have been going there for 30 years!!

[@niconicojeong]

YES this is my childhood theme park! And love the trolley park lesson - I had no idea 😲 I love seeing pics when the park was new and everyone was wearing gowns and suits 🥺👏🏻

[@Rebbalicious]

Ive defintly searched your channel for this park before!!! Its the only one ive been to in the US. Soo happy to see this! Thank u!

[@alliekuma4234]

Lol I love the two guys at the end coaster. Awesome vid and I definitely love how unique the rides are for sure.

[@annaratliff4638]

This park looks like so much fun. So many unique rides and a really beautiful lake. I live so far away. But it's in my goals list to visit there

[@CC-watches]

Jacob’s Tombstone: “I don’t even know what a drome iiiiiiiiis. Oh Psycho Droooome!”

[@danielcaven6947]

lol

[@nathanbugg3221]

I Google it and didn't find much

[@seangale6380]

Heck yea , 10 Mins from my house ! So glad u went !!!

[@GHOST-mi4jh]

Thanks for all the fun,joy and laughter you've brought to us.

[@pysankar]

Never been there but looks like a nice little park to have a fun day at. That carousel and swing ride were both beautiful.

[@joshbrown8299]

Love the park. Like that you want on rides you normally you don't ride

[@MikeWeiner]

I never laughed as hard at any of your videos as you on the Psycho Drome! 😄😄😄 That was awesome, Jacob! I'm a proud patreon supporter and you never disappoint! 💯😄👍🏼

[@TransmascPeterGriffin]

i can’t believe you’re there that’s my favorite amusement park!!!!

[@Sparose3]

That’s probably the best dark ride I’ve seen you do yet.

[@bloop292]

this trip was vicious to you ride-wise haha, especially w the surprise/hidden carnival rides!

[@TriflingTravels]

Jacob, in the Mine of Lost Souls, at the very end when the guy says “you thought you were safe, think again”, there used to be water that rushed down that trough to the right making you feel like it was going to pour on you

[@SashaC.]

I miss some of the features of Canobie that don’t work/run anymore. I also remember right after Michael Jackson passed, they had a huge MJ statue at the front of the park. My whole family took photos posing with it that summer. So many good memories at this park.

[@darklordojeda]

Wow, in New Hampshire. I went back in the very early 90's when I lived there. Cool place.

[@michellemueller7288]

The Turkish Twist is just like a ride I used to ride at my hometown park World's of Fun, our version was called The Finishing Fling. I knew exactly what it was as soon as I seen it on your camera! Lol.

[@zeo1chris]

Sigh... memories, my Childhood was spent Here 3 Summers... but dang had a chance to run into THE Carpetbagger n never even knew he was up near Massachusetts, oh well hope you enjoyed your visit Jaccob!!!

[@sbabz]

That park looks great. Six flags great America in Chicago had a version of the Turkish Twist called the Cajun Cliffhanger. It closed after people got injured when their feet got stuck between the wall and the floor.

[@anthonymalerbo322]

14:00 fun fact in idlewild park they used to have a ride just like this.

[@jasoninmichigan6078]

Impressive rides here.... Especially Psycho Drome! Never found one like it before... Untamed was one wicked little coaster!

[@uncanny_ally]

Jacob with our favourite theme park history today! Love ya!

[@skipperevan2243]

This was more fun than it should have been. Grew up going here and everything looks exactly the same. Loved this so much

[@NicolettePaigeTMusic]

I have grown up going to Canobie and I love the paintball game i’m not a rollercoaster person so the little games are my favorite and Castaway Island is amazing so cool seeing you up in my next of the woods!

[@m3d14music]

My favourite park! Screeemfest is super fun and scary! We often go down to visit Canobie and Nightmare New England during haunt season!

[@eviltom17]

I just mentioned this park in your Santa's Village video! I'm so glad you paid Canobie a visit and enjoyed it Jacob!

[@FilmFanization]

What a great Dark Ride! Love the concept of going through a mine and it turns into an Egyptian Mummy Tomb! Love your Channel! It's great!

[@KeysOfDestruction]

Please please please come back for screamfest!!!!!! There’s many different haunts with different themes, I’ll actually be working there this year with my friends who are avid watchers of yours! I think you would enjoy it!

[@wmen13]

I love that dark ride! Been going to this park since I was a kid!

[@liaverrochi7017]

Been there a bunch of times. Great park. Glad you made this video.

[@craigw.miller9820]

The Psycho Drome takes the Scrambler to the next level. One of my favorite rides, made in Jacksonville, IL about an hour away from me.

[@amandapratt1851]

Canobie lake park! I went there when I was a kid. Oh Gawd, the Turkish delight! I was up on the observation deck, and someone threw up in the spinning part. Lol

[@tacob69]

I have know idea how I missed this video in September but this place is on my list just for the dark ride.Their animatronics are insane and that is a long ride.Very cool.

[@leehowes880]

This is one of my favorite parks. The ride that you called the chicken is actually a rooster. The Turkish twist is like a washing machine.

[@robrozek9265]

This is like the rotor ride in the New York park that was closed when you went great channel been enjoying for a couple years

[@tonydynot]

Sidenote = I am so excited to see you made it there! I'm sure you had heard of it before, but I kept dropping comments about it in your live streams. It's just a Charming old park that they have maintained pretty well over the years. So cool that you were in the 603. Sorry to have missed you. So glad you enjoyed it. Knew they had a dark ride you'd be interested in. It's my hometown Park too like many people have said here. Dig it!

[@mcwatersd]

That is an awesome park. It has to be one of the best I have seen you feature . The dark ride was spectacular. Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤

[@frankbingham53]

The popcorn stand that looks like a tub of popcorn looks good and this video is amazing this one is in the bag the incredible carpet bagger.

[@johnkaczinski468]

When I was a kid in the ‘60s, there was an amusement park near Wilkes Barre, PA called “San Souci” with a Caterpillar ride. The high school kids use to make out when the canopy was covering it.

[@Cassie-bg3co]

Oh man, I loved going here! The log flume was the best♡

[@CorlissGallows]

My home town park! We used to call it Cannibal lake park ! WOW it has changed a lot since I've been!

[@Jamescub]

That's funny Jacob! I was just there at Canobie today. I took the boat ride, the Psychodrome, the train ride and the Cannonball rollercoaster. It was wonderful weather. I just happen to come across your video. I enjoyed it. I just wish the park didn't close so early at 7pm. I remember it open much later.

[@skyestimson]

It's so rare anyone comes to NH I love when you're here! I went to Canobie once, it was very hot and a girl had heat stroke and fainted on my shoulder 😬 definitely a fun memory for it hahah
