OC Haunted Hotel - Private AnimatronicTour - Rare and Unusual Animatronics - Ocean City, NJ

[@Eric-v5g]

Thank You Jacob for visiting my crazy shop, you definitely inspired me to probably start cleaning more, lol! It was a pleasure meeting you, and next time visit with a bigger truck !!!

[@ShelleeGraham]

Your artwork and vintage collection of artifacts is wonderful and amazing 🤩. How kind of you to offer Jacob the Carpetbagger an elaborate behind-the-scenes tour. And you’re also a very generous person. 👍

[@Eric-v5g]

@@ShelleeGraham Thank You so much, I have alot of mutual friends with Jacob and always wanted to share my crazy shop with him

[@loravaloo55]

Thank you for sharing your shop with Jacob and the channel. I thoroughly enjoyed your tour.

[@PeteRondeau]

I'm so glad that all worked out!

[@GreenScienceBoy]

It was so amazing as an avid collector of vintage animatronics to see these amazing pieces of history existing today. I have a question, Any chance you'd ever be willing to sell the electric chair guy at 52:10 . I absolutely love that eye mechanism and the paint scheme is incredible :)

[@OldMovieRob]

Crazy how good some of these effects are getting. The sea captain with the raging sea around him was a great effect.

[@junebug58]

😍❤Jersey Pizza is THE BEST🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕

[@Joeymurda87]

I love the behind the scenes stuff. It's so cool to see the craftspeople who make these animatronics, and the guy who worked on the mini trains

[@PeteRondeau]

So glad you got to meet Eric!

[@thegoegarhole]

Luckily, he didn't meet Walter the shop skunk.

[@rachellavely4049]

This is so interesting! I hope Eric knows how much joy he brings so many people. Thank you for sharing!

[@shepherdjohnsonva]

Dang, Eric is so cool, really nice of him to donate that stuff to your Bunker museum/curio cabinet

[@mikehughes4969]

What an action packed video! The haunted hotel and golf course were both top notch, and the use of the ET theme in the alien mirror maze was nothing short of genius. But the topper was that workshop. Wow. Just wow. All that theme park and dark ride history in one place is mind-blowing. And it was just plain nice of Eric to give you all that cool stuff. Kudos to him. I expect they'll find prominent places in the bunker. Incredibly well done, my friend.

[@jacquelinejanewashere]

Wow the behind the scenes animatronics tour is a new classic cb video 🖤

[@HelloIAmClutch]

I love these all animatronics haunted house walk through type attractions. It's like walking through a dark ride! It remind me of a great time I had recently at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk "Fright Walk". I even yelled "No scares on stairs!!!!" while going through it!

[@SanDiegoAnnie]

All I can say is, Steve is hilarious! Love the animatronics shop, great behind the scenes look! Great video, Jacob! Thanks for sharing!

[@brianking973]

The animatronics shop is incredible. That man is very talented. 12 years old and built an animatronic dinosaur from a cassette player? Incredible

[@feloniousbutterfly]

Amazing stuff, glad to watch Jacob! Do you realize how much history you are cataloging as you go? It's kinda spectacular!

[@thegerm574]

What a great behind the scenes tour. I thought you were a goner for sure when in the back of that storage trailer. Super nice of that guy to give you those gifts. And funny how there’s more guys like us that collect stuff like that around.

[@greggseiter1412]

Jacob, Loved the animation shop tour, very interesting side trip. You never know where your adventures will lead !

[@syedhamidi5643]

40:21 "nobody likes her ... she's like the only racist ghost i ever met" 😂😂😂 too funny

[@mokkin240]

I love Lucy! That haunted hotel is so creative. Such a cool tour of the animatronics - New Jersey never looked so cool. Also so glad you drove right past Great Adventure, it is so terrible and dysfunctional right now, haha.

[@StephenCookcookphotoworks]

You're making a terrific snapshot of Americana. This was one of your best.

[@zehn39]

It’s great that the mold for the famous Tracy giant skull is still around after all these years.

[@BearLee]

Congratulations on the new friendship with Mr. Animatronic guy. Awesome collection & career. Scorned some swag too! Nice!! Cheers JTC! 🎉

[@feloniousbutterfly]

Love the animatronics in the haunted hotel. Simple but effective and vaguely nostalgic.

[@kennethiman2691]

Eric needs to open a museum!

[@Eric-v5g]

Always wanted to, love showing off all the crazy things I have with others

[@tommiller4895]

Loved the Haunted Hote! Fascinating tour of thr Animatronic Shop..

[@kaymad143]

I love that Eric showed you his collection, very cool, he seems like a really cool guy! The tour at the Haunted Place was fun to watch too!

[@sunshinesdaydream3627]

South Jersey girl here...so glad you got to visit these awesome places..so much to appreciate. Love ur videos!

[@petergregory6185]

What an awesome location for so much fun and they look so realistic. Great watching but great being there in person 👍

[@bunnylovesbostons]

that guy and his shop are one of the coolest places you brought us Thanks so much!

[@kathrynkathryn5493]

Dear Carpetbagger, I was wondering if you knew the fait of this marvelous treasure of a "Haunted Hotel" and "Mini-Golf" in OC, NJ ? That is, since the big amusement area closed it's doors for the last time, has that closing effected the Haunted Hotel section of the Boardwalk? I've never been to OC, NJ but I'm on a bit of an old Dark Ride Quest. Love your channel. BTW - I am so jealous that you got a private tour of not only the Dark Ride at Knoebels but also the Wooden Bobsled Ride. You see, I used to ride her when she was originally in Coney Island and finally became a real Woman's Bobsleder because of it. Hope to hear back from you. Until then Cheers and keep the videos coming. They are really some of the best out there. A Huge Thank You - K

[@thenotoriousgryyn342]

I know it’s Haunt Season, when I hear Carpetbagger screaming in terror 🎃👍

[@aliencafe]

Doesn’t seem like the season starts until you hear him screaming at compressed air! 😂❤

[@BHStudios01]

38:37 Wait, is that one of the Kermits from the traveling mall show about automobile safety?! Owo AH! Okay, had to wait less than a minute to hear him say it WAS! That’s very cool that he has those!

[@BlackArroToons]

Cool. Thanks for the tour of the Haunted House but also of the Animatronics Pro Shop! Very cool to see that, thanks!

[@aliencafe]

That Kraken bartender is probably one of my favorite scenes you’ve ever shown in your walk-throughs! I have a soft spot for anything sea monster related, and a soft spot for bar scenes so that was the COOLEST.

[@russ8487]

So many fond memories of vacationing "Down The Shore" at Ocean City, NJ when I was a kid and currently with my family. Definitely going to check out the OC Haunted Hotel. Love your videos. Keep 'em coming!!!

[@jamescargill4370]

Man oh Man..... Jacob, you left there with SOME LOOT! 😳😀

[@87alsjth]

You going through haunted houses never fail to make me laugh!

[@dianadelahaye7660]

Awesome and so cool you got some gifts from Eric.

[@scottbutcher9093]

Wow The Haunted Hotel looks absolutely brilliant.

[@hpotter29]

What a unique and fun haunted attraction! The effects are really creative. Definitely not the same old stuff. The molting bird cracked me up!

[@SaccharineChaperone]

Saying “oh here’s some Bill Tracy stuff” like it’s some mundane news, just floors me. I’d have that stuff at my front door 24/7 What a wonderful collection of everything I love!!

[@thegoegarhole]

He also does the "Oh, that's just from Brigantine Castle"

[@endlessmike5846]

This is amazing! I grew up going to Atlantic City as a kid, seeing the Mardi Gras Cats blew me away! And the robot band from Trop World!! So happy right now

[@lorali9669]

Loved getting to visit Eric's shop with you! So much to see! Need more visits with him! Genius!

[@lissachocolate]

That Haunted Hotel and Golf was great! And the tour with Eric was interesting, he has accumulated some good stuff, “Oh and here’s some Bill Tracy stuff”, Whoah!😮 He was very generous too!

[@mareekatz]

AMAZING video Jacob !!!!

[@BuddyCrafted]

Thanks for heading to my favorite place Jacob! Always wonderful seeing you in Ocean City, NJ

[@lorali9669]

Just....WOW!!❤

[@trevski1388]

This video is truly amazing. Thanks, CB!

[@Drunk-i4p]

I'm from New Jersey! This is one of my favorite spots! I'm happy to see someone showing it!

[@TheAtariCreep]

WOW! This is SOOOO amazing. We need things like this in Boston. I am shocked the Salem Willows hasn't something like this.

[@deidrapedrosa260]

I'm a town over from Salem and I completely agree!😊

[@Lee_felixxxx]

Thank u Jacob for uploading ur travel vlogs with us. Your videos have helped me and ur fans from our everyday life struggles

[@becklyn]

LOVED hearing a snippet of 'It's the End of The World as We Know It". Takes me back to when I spent weeks memorizing those lyrics. When I was a karaoke DJ, that was one I kept in my back pocket. Lol

[@angelgirlny4256]

Wow that was so fun. I'm glad Eric gave you a few souvenirs 🎉. Thank you for sharing this cool video.

[@mclarkins]

With all those souvenirs, I think you better head to the Bunker and Unload!

[@Debra-m8i]

The carving on the prow of the ship is a figurehead.

[@pickinweedsvintage]

That is one MANLY slice of pizza! WOW! No skimpy portions at this place!

[@toddventure]

Amazing tour. Thanks, Jacob! ❤😊

[@MattTheLizard]

Jacob...it was great seeing the shop tour. Some important history there.

[@BrendaBrendabluestone-ho8hk]

Well hello carpetbagger it's amazing to see another amazing video have a wonderful weekend and safe on you're trip road

[@Cheezbat]

Eric has a phenomenal collection! So great getting to see all those amazing animatronics and props!

[@XenobiaWolfMoon2]

Jacob is slowly turning his home into a roadside attraction to live on after he goes up to that dirigible in the sky

[@RoadsideExplorers]

We got to visit this awesome new attraction a couple weekends ago and loved it! Also got to visit Gillian's right after the closure announcement. Vlog just dropped today on the channel!

[@SnackHeadCowboy]

“Bigger than any real elephant” 😂😂😂

[@thenotoriousgryyn342]

That collection is amazing, I love it!

[@angelamarie9968]

I know how the whole thing about a haunted house is the scare actors but I'd just like to go to one and just take in the scenery and look at all the animtronics like this like a private tour lol

[@Corgis175]

Quite a haul. Love Ocean City boardwalk and mini golf/

[@matthewfarmer2520]

Good afternoon bagger, I just got back from the Kentucky State Fair today for 6 hours, it was hot outside but cool indoor. Thanks for sharing this OC haunted attraction.🎃👻📸🤓

[@allensherrill850]

Some very clever ideas in that haunted walk through ❤

[@jenniesecker4034]

Jacob...do you think you'd ever do Renaissance festivals? I'm not sure if it is your type of thing but I'd love to see a series of videos for the Ren fests around the country?

[@woeb0t]

I second this. I want to see some jousting!

[@denisedarnell1641]

Michigan has a big one in Holly ...but it always has way too many bees ...it makes it very hard to enjoy it without getting someone in your party stung

[@aliencafe]

That would be so fun! I just went to Bristol Renn Faire for the first time a couple weeks ago, and I was amazed at how much there was to see! It’d definitely be a great subject for a video.

[@instanthorror]

I have a beach house in Ocean City. Great little town with a nice little board walk. Glad you had a good time.

[@alanlough638]

Kudos to your KZbin Channel, Jacob! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@allensherrill850]

“Tony heads” Tony must be a scary guy! I think I like Tony! ❤❤

[@thegoegarhole]

I was like "Hmmmm , I wonder if Eric is going to mention me?" I'm going to have to send him a PR check 👻

[@jonnyg123ful]

More awesome collections for the bunkers you are going to need a bigger bunker lol great ! video Jacob

[@susantumblety6003]

Great video!!!! Love the haunted hotel and golf! And Eric's haunted house props!!! I live in Jersey! Now I want to go to ocean city!

[@christophermignone6274]

Eric is a NJ legend great stuff

[@BHStudios01]

Heads up about Ocean City ! They have an annual Doo Dah Parade! Basically a comedy parade, it’s just pure FUN! I marched in it one year with Rapid T Rabbit and Friends. 💜🐰 RIP, Rapid! We still miss you, buddy!

[@Jenny61076]

My daughter and i go to Haunted Golf every year, but we did not go into the Haunted Hotel this year. It looks fun! We will definitely go next time. Thank you for sharing!

[@stevensanfilippo6338]

Glad to see you visiting different parts of NJ, my home state, this week!

[@Fiona_Nasii]

I love ur content, keep the good work up Jacob ❤❤

[@atinwoodsman]

Thanks for showing us around

[@brianstone6463]

The skull mold from the Ocean City dark ride still exists!? That is so freaking cool.

[@ConstanceBonn]

This is probably the best animatronic haunted house I’ve seen.

[@16thlevelpro]

Had to look it up, but I'm happy to learn that the carved woman, on the front of the boat, is a figurehead.

[@SouthwestAirlines335]

Gillian’s Wonderland Pier is shutting down after the 2024 season. Hopefully you made it there while in OC NJ!

[@MeatBombMMB]

That shop tour was amazing!

[@TomSTvYoutube]

Please please show off what you got when you get back home!! We want to see! What an amazing experience for you!

[@thegoegarhole]

Jacob needs a "I Survived Eric's Shop And Didn't Break An Ankle" T-Shirt. Also a " Granny" pin for his hat.

[@niecey7492]

Fun video!

[@marcuswooldridge]

[@PortalPuddle]

Steven seems like such a chill dude

[@BevBaker-m3c]

Thanks Jacob. Another great vlog. X

[@dans1328]

Daniels Wood Land comes to mind after watching this! You document some amazingly creative folks, for posterity as Adamthewoo says. The Alan Lomax of KZbin! If you've heard of him? So enjoyable and inspirational.
