Yesterworld: 5 Abandoned Nickelodeon & Hanna Barbara Attractions and Theme Parks

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

*Corrections Whoops, accidentally said "2012" instead of "2002" regarding Funtastic World's closure, so please forgive the blunder. I must have also had Disney on the brain because I repeatedly said "Phantom Manor" instead of "Phantom Theatre". Then again, it wouldn't be a Yesterworld video if I didn't read at least one date and/or name incorrectly from the script ;)

[@RHYSISABOMB]

Thanks for telling me.

[@BowserMovies1989]

I got a story for you, pal. I went to Universal Orlando during my high school freshman year in Spring 2005. You see, my mom died from leukemia and my dad started a fund dedicated to her. And we made enough to go to Florida for Spring Break because my Uncle Donald was living there at the time. Ever since I saw the Universal Studios Florida ad from the VHS release of Jetsons: The Movie, it was my childhood dream to go there as a family. Alas, my dream came with a price. At least we got to go there and Walt Disney World before the New Fantasyland change. And we (my dad, sister, and myself) went to the Jimmy Neutron attraction, had fun, and met SpongeBob. And the guy who got defeated is Ooblar's brother, King Goobot.

[@Van_ayh]

I've driven passed it many times as a kid when my family would go camping up around Hope, but never actually visited it. I've been to that waterslide park nearby several times though.

[@stephens101student]

I was a kid when Kings Island still had Hanna-Barbera land. I watched a lot of old cartoons with my grandparents so that felt really special. When I got a little bit older and it change to Nickelodeon it was more of a fantasy come to life. I miss it so much.

[@cherryskies2091]

As someone who's home park is King's Island, this really put a smile on my face. Hanna Barbara land growing up was amazing. The carousel was even themed to the characters, how cool is that? I had always heard about the smurf ride growing up. It's neat to be able to see videos of it. I think it's because of that ride we still call the iconic King's Island blue ice cream "smurf ice cream." As for Phantom Theater, I really loved it as a kid. It was an obvious rip off of the haunted mansion but it was nice as a kid having something so close to disney that I could go to whenever I pleased. I've always hated the scooby doo version as well as boo blasters. Thanks for this video!!

[@cherryskies2091]

Also, forgot to mention a story about the Wild Thornberries ride. I'll never forget, it was during Fear Fest/Halloween Haunt and we were walking in that area. I must have been relatively young anyway my dad had walked off a bit of distance ahead of me. Anyway there's an elephant towards the end of the ride that would spray out water. I was walking through the dark, in the fog. The ride it's self wasn't actually operating. As i'm walking by the ride on the path, the elephant goes off! I think I ran to my dad right away. I didn't get wet or anything, the distance was too far. Still scared the hell out of me. I was always leery of the elephant afterwards.

[@ScorpionsFatality]

It's so cool that you got to experience that!

[@Pinkyshy101]

I’m only 17, so I obviously couldn’t experience it, but my home park is King’s Island too, and my since both my parents grew up here too, they’ve told stories of Hanna Barbara land, especially the ride featured here, and I’ve seen videos and it seems like something that really would’ve been fun! I’d never heard of the smurfs ride, or the haunted mansion rip off (or if I had I’ve forgotten), but those seem interesting too. I’ve unfortunately only been able to go to KI a handful of times, since it’s so expensive, and I’ve only known that ride as the current boo blasters (though I’ve only been on it once when I was maybe 10 or 11, I didn’t even want to go on it it scared me so much, oops). Rambling aside, I love learning about the park’s history!

[@cherryskies2091]

Not only Hanna Barbara Land but I think King's Island as a whole during that time was amazing. I know people love Cedar Fair as a company but King's Island when it was owned by Paramount was top tier. I would highly look into Tomb Raider: The ride or even Italian Job/Stunt Coaster/Whatever it's called today. They watered Tomb Raider down from being one of the best themed rides outside of Florida and eventually ruined it. They're basically doing the same with the Stunt Coaster ride. It's a big shame you weren't able to experience King's Island during that time. Cedar Fair might do coasters right but they can't theme things to save their souls.

[@CosplayCore]

I've never been to King's Island, but I live in Texas and we have a Six Flags I like to go to for Halloween that used to have a "sister" to that Scooby-Doo ride. I LOVED it! I don't deal well with thrill rides and I love Scooby-Doo, so that was the only thing I could ride at the park... Unfortunately, they closed our Scooby ride last year. TTnTT I was really sad to hear it.

[@lucianoalonso4389]

[@natalie8212]

As a LONG time vintage toy collector, I'm so happy you mentioned the Smurf attraction! I never really knew the full story, I'd only seen pamphlets from the park for sale here and there. Thanks so much for the info on that , and yes Damn it, I'm looking up Verve cause I can't find full episodes of Hidden Temple anywhere else! Thank you for another great installment!

[@RG-FNR]

I remember seeing all of the Nickelodeon themed rides at Canada's Wonderland when I was a kid, it's sad that they're gone now. I remember they even had Spongebob announce on the speakers all over the park that a Nickelodeon parade was starting. Everyone would quickly rush over to watch the parade.

[@ethanjudd7531]

Boo blasters brings back such good memories for me. Thats where I faced my fears as a young child at the phantom manor in 2002, really bonded with my siblings when shooting ghosts on the scooby doo ride, and kissed the woman I would marry for the first time in boo blasters in 2011. Kings island is amazing.

[@YuukiTakemoto1996]

I would enjoy the Enchanted Voyage more than the other rides (ESPECIALLY the Smurfs...) I wouldn't know the Ant Hill Mob, Bristle Hound, or Lambsy however...

I grew up near Kings Dominion and the Hanna Barbera area was a massive part of my childhood. Smurf Mountain was life for 5 year old me. I was in my teens when they gutted it and changed it to Nickelodeon but this video gave me so many feels about my childhood.

[@troostan2776]

Although it’s no abandoned, I’m surprised you didn’t mention the Nickelodeon Universe park in The Mall Of America in Minnesota. It’s basically an indoor theme park themed around Nickelodeon shows. It’s really cool and worth checking out. Great video btw man

[@puddels2672]

It really is! I live near it and it’s fun to visit it sometimes! I’d go at a good time though because the crime rate is high there and in the area. I’d probably go early in the morning, you also get in line quicker too!

[@WonderlandPirate]

I actually went through Nickelodian: Outta Control when I was a kid! That was a weird attraction. I remember one room where as far as I can remember we were supposed to just run around making noise in various ways, and another with funny mirrors that I think had something to do with Aaah Real Monsters characters. Then at the end they made you pose for various photos like one where everyone in your group was meant to be picking their nose. I'd be fascinated to see what remains of it some day!

[@nyanpirethecat2257]

You should do a video on Hannah Barbara Land. It one point, Hannah Barbara had an entire theme park in the 80's when the company once ruled television. Some of the parks either got demolished or replaced with a different theme.

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

That was in earlier versions of the script! It was initially a much larger story but as I joke about it was becoming too much for a segment within the video.

[@tmoverbeck]

Yeah, I thought for sure I'd see something on the old Houston theme park that was operational for a few years in the mid-80s. It's been a non-HB-themed waterpark (now called Wet-N-Wild Splashtown) ever since.

[@cherryskies2091]

I think we'd love to see a full video on it!

[@Emiliapocalypse]

Thomas Overbeck I had no idea Houston even had a HB theme park, and I think my mom is living right on top of where it used to be. Weird! Trying to find a map of the exact location so I can be sure. Thanks for that info

[@collierlunsford5469]

It’s so interesting!

[@wesmarinproductions]

I went to the Bedrock City in Arizona in 2007, when I was 6 years old. It was completely abandoned aside from my family and a couple of workers. There was only one working ride and it was really dark and bumpy. Not to mention it was Arizona in June and nothing was air conditioned. It felt like a ghost town and was by far one of the creepiest experiences of my childhood. I will never forget it.

[@mfchimichanga]

The Arizona set looks like something out of Mad Max.

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

I know right! I mean they've done some decent refurbs recently, but still...

[@Johnwicklover1994]

I went to it when I was very little. It sucked a lot. They gave me a rock from the ground and told me it was a meteor. Oof.

[@thebardkestrel]

I first drove past the Flintstones theme park in Arizona in 1996. Even then, it didn't look worth visiting. It's only real advantage is being on the road north to the Grand Canyon, but usually the parents aren't going to listen to kids who want to pull over to visit it...or teachers and field trip bus drivers, for that matter...if the destination is the Grand Canyon.

[@Iloveyeww00]

I went to the Grand Canyon back in May and we passed by it, memories of when I was younger but it looks completely abandoned! I'm honestly surprised that it is still running

[@autumnburgest1739]

I visited it when I was 4 maybe 5 years old and remember the big dinosaur slide.

[@lexkasady9072]

yeah, how would manmade cartoon buildings beat the natural beauty of the grand canyon? 😂

[@RikkiTikkiTavo]

I live just outside San Antonio TX where we have Six Flags Fiesta Texas, we had a ride that looks like it was an almost exact replica of Scooby Doo and the Haunted Castle (except it was called Scooby-Doo GhostBlasters) that closed earlier this year, due to losing the Hanna-Barbera rights, and is now being turned into what sounds like a Pirates of the Caribbean knock-off.

[@12366jj]

RikkiTikkiTavo dang, id always go into that one, hopefully the pirate one is a decent replacement when I go back

[@infectious1048]

Aw what! I moved to Dallas three years ago but I used to ALWAYS ride that. Aw man that really sucks I'm so dissapointed

[@MeowingCookie_]

The Arizona one was bought out by a bird sanctuary. They sometimes let people tour the place as most of the stuff is still there as of 2020

[@catiewith6090]

I think the most interesting abandoned/removed Hanna Barbara attraction is probably the Banana Splitsville in what used to be the former Hard Rock Amusement park in Myrtle beach which only lasted one year because the amusement park closed a year after it opened it is probably the weirdest relaunch of a Hanna Barbara show I have ever seen.

[@YuukiTakemoto1996]

Even weirder than the Banana Splits horror movie?

[@Hallandoatesmeal]

I’m surprised you didn’t say anything about the Camp Cartoon area at Six Flags Great America. They had the Jetsons, Flintstones, Yogi Bear & Scooby Doo themed attractions and unfortunately they’ve all been re-themed into garbage within the past ten years. Was definitely a highlight of going there as a child and it’s so sad to see how rundown it is now.

[@YuukiTakemoto1996]

I loved that place!

I went to the Arizona Flintstone’s park as a kid. The costume character’s freaked me out, the were playing the live action movie on every screen, and have memories of playing “Ticket to Ride” playing on the train ride but that have been me singing it.

[@jaiikaii]

I used to love the Hanna Barbara Land at Australia's Wonderland when it was around. Jabber Jaws was my fave character on the carousel there. It had the rainbow enterance too. It's a shame they stopped investing in it and let it go to ruin.

[@Oriana_leung]

08:21 No idea why they held a promotion in SG as I remembered receiving a few colouring A4 papers for Nick Central.

[@preschoolguy2010]

I went to the Carowinds Nickelodeon Themepark in about 2005. It's now Camp Snoopy. I was a fan of Nickelodeon, however, I like the Snoopy theme better because it showed Cedar Point really spent good money trying to improve it. With the Nick rides, they pretty much got a coat of paint and new signage and that's all. They were going to build a Nick themepark in New Orleans after Katrina but that fell through.

[@keepinitrealz4527]

Kings island was so cool to go to as a kid when it had scooby doo and spongebob. The scooby doo haunted ride was my favorite. I remember when they changed it to boo blasters. You can still tell it was scooby doo by the art but they replaced the heads of the animontronics

[@WickedWonder1979]

I apparently got to go on Enchanted Voyage, but I was 4 when it changed so i have no memory of it. I have fond memories of the Smurf ride, being a fan of all dark rides. Old Hanna-Barbera land was cool.

[@Ali_OT7]

The Smurf ride was amazing, and to me as a small child, absolutely terrifying! I still miss it every time I go to KI.

[@The_FactoidVoid]

I rode the Smurf ride and Phantom Theater at King’s Island when I was a kid. Yes, I’m old! Lol

[@The_FactoidVoid]

ThePoketea Is that a euphemism? Lol. It was like a lower quality dark water ride (ala a Disney attraction) where you travel through a Smurf village, with the Smurfs flying kites, picking flowers, just generally having fun. You encountere a giant Gargamel and Azriel plotting to capture the Smurfs and you hear the iconic Smurf theme throughout. Imagine “It’s a Small World” with lower quality animatronic Smurfs. But when I was a kid? Magical.

[@Adsbean27]

As a kid we went to the Bedrock park in SD and it’s been a running joke in the family ever since. The memory that sticks out the most was the train that passed thru “Dinosaur Ridge” with was literally a tench with plastic toy dinosaurs sitting on both sides of the train.

[@recklesslady758]

My home park is Canadas wonderland.. as a 90s kid I loved Hanna Barbera shows so going to the park to see all my favorite characters was awesome. Flash to now as I take my 6 year old son to the park to see snoopy land I feel like hes getting ripped off a bit. Yes the rides are fun and he had a blast but I cant help but feel like some of the magic is gone because he has no idea who snoopy is. I wish they would have bought the rights to something kids today know

I had blocked this event from my memory until today.. anyways it was SO cheezy, I could tell even as a young kid but this was at the end of its life so I'm sure in its heyday it had more to do, like I dont even remember there being any rides when I went.

[@Wii505]

It's sad to see the Flintstone Park in South Dakota is go and become just a regular campground. I've been going to it since I was six years old after descovering it when I was five years old and we use it to have somewhere to stay on our Crazy Horse Trip every year.

[@KingsIslandHistory]

Great video! Thanks for incorporating a couple clips from my videos too, and for highlighting some under-appreciated Kings Island rides. I had a couple quick minor corrections. Nothing major, but worth noting: 9:32 - Where did you get the $300 million value for Kings Island from? The park was built at a cost of $29 million in 1972, which is still only ~$176 million adjusted for inflation 10:50 - You say Phantom Manor, but I'm sure that was just a slip and you meant to say Phantom Theater 12:46 - You say Boulder Bumpers was a day-one attraction at Kings Island in 1983, but Kings Island opened in 1972 and Boulder Bumpers in 1977. A bit later, you mentioned it was transformed into Jimmy Neutron's Atom Blasters with Nickelodeon Central. That didn't actually happen until Nickelodeon Universe, which was a replacement of Hanna-Barbera Land and Nickelodeon Central in 2006. The picture of Joe Cool Dodgem School is also Cedar Point's version, but the two do look very similar. Again, nothing major, but wanted to clarify a few facts. Thanks again for the great video! Edit - Oops, one more... 14:04, you mentioned Runaway Reptar became Snoopy vs. Red Baron. It actually became Flying Ace Aerial Chase - Snoopy vs. Red Baron is a very small Zamperla flat-ride, which was previously Blue's Skdioo (and Dick Dastardly's Biplanes before that).

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

First of all, so glad you enjoyed the video! I admit, outside Disney and Universal I am really out of my element, but I'm using this as a lesson for the future. 1. As far as where I got the $300 million value, though in hindsight I see how I should have phrased it differently, I was referring to the current estimation of the parks investments. 2. Yup you are absolutely right, for some reason I read "Phantom Theatre" as "Phantom Manor" during my VO, I think I had Disney too much on my brain as I have it correctly written in the script. 3. I really don't have an excuse for this, I thought I had the information right but evidently I did not :( 4. Now I'm just embarrassed....

[@KingsIslandHistory]

Yesterworld Entertainment No worries, none of these are super drastic or anything. And again, the video is still great. If/When you next do a video with anything Kings Island, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want someone to proofread, or if you need any material :)

It was so disappointing going back to King's Island years ago and seeing all the fun Nickelodeon theming changed to a boring Peanuts cover up. Don't get wrong the Peanuts are great but it just seems like they didn't even try. The log ride was probably the biggest disappointment to me.

[@12rouged]

The Runaway Reptar change was the most disappointing to me. The whole theme of the area was just so magical as a kid with all the giant statues.

I remember that the (now closed and demolished) german amusement park "Bavaria Film Park" had a small section of The Flintstones, including a very small setpiece of Bedrock. There was even a person dressed up as Dino and giving autograms. That was in the early ninties. Searchign online, the park was open between 1992 and 1992. Movie Park Germany is now where the Filmpark original was and it still has it Nickland running, since the rebranding from Warner Brother Park to Movie Park.

I’m surprised you didn’t talk about the 4-d spongebob show in Six flats New Orleans. It was a lot like the one over in the nick hotel however it closed due to the hurricane

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

I almost included it, but it’s been so well covered already. Didn’t think I could really add anything.

[@cherryskies2091]

I'm pretty sure it was the exact same one as the nick hotel actually. Paramount Parks (now Cedar Fair parks) also had it. I'm sure there were other parks too.

[@adventureswithclidesrevange]

So are we going skip over Jon on snow said the six flats not six flags

6 Flags Great Adventure had it too (or at least a Version of it)

[@ballinbrethren630]

OMG I live like 30 minutes from King's Island and I'm always told by my grandparents and parents how fun the Hannah Barbera Land was. Now It's the peanuts which is boring I would KILL to go back to Hannah Barbera.

[@kylebarker2926]

You're gonna do Australia's Wonderland? Your finally doing a place i've been to. Looking foward to that one.

[@gumdropp2264]

I had no idea Bedrock City existed!! That’s so crazy that they had a real park for Flintstones!! I wish I could’ve seen it in person :( Great video as always!!

[@alysonk5853]

There’s a spinning cart rollercoaster ride also named “Pandamonium” at Six Flags Fiesta Texas, not themed after Kung Fu Panda though. Lawsuit?

[@lovely.lonely.moon.]

Omg this brought back some forgotten childhood memories, I remember going on that Jimmy Neutron ride and taking a photo in front of Spongebob's house in line.

[@philollenberg]

5:15 - You might want to say "U.S. locations" instead of "North America." Canada is part of North America.

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

Very true, will keep in mind for future videos!

[@paigefindlay1258]

I remember going to the “Pipeline Plunge” on the Gold Coast when I was like 4 or 5, there was also a Rugrats themed castle jungle gym sort of thing where u could shoot foam balls at each other from these little cannon things, at least that’s what I remember.

[@HelloTiffyBell]

Boo blasters is bad the guns never work. Since cedar fair took over they havnt not updated the ride (other than a coat of paint when they took over to get rid of hannah Barbara and Nickelodeon characters) goes for alot of rides in the park they dont live up to how it was when paramount owned it. But fun fact there was a scene in scooby doo where shaggy was running around. That is still there they just gave him a bad haircut and Hawaiian shirt

[@n.hughes5143]

I have some of the best memories from Hanna Barbara land & Nickelodeon land at Carowinds! There were so many awesome themed rides (the Nickelodeon water coaster, smurf island, etc) This video really took me back!

[@seatspud]

Aww, was hoping Hanna-Barbera's Marineland would've got an honorable mention.

[@mareeedensos2805]

Marineland?

[@shawnmulligan2894]

I visited Bedrock City in South Dakota and it was one of the strangest experiences of my life. The show was still going okay, though the audio was way too loud, and the Park was essentially deserted, though in pretty good shape overall. The food places were all closed, with the main event being the gift shop or the Flintstone cars, which were driven by attendants and smelled like really powerful gas fumes. I also remember going through the giant snake tunnel seen at 5:06 and having a minor panic attack due to claustrophobia brought on by the very skinny and very long tunnel. I don't think any other attractions were operating when I went, but it was ome of the weirdest and most memorable parts of my trip aside from, y'know, Mount Rushmore.

[@avabranz694]

dang, that phantom manor ride looks terrifying. i was at kings island in june and ride boo blasters, it’s newest replacement, and it kinda sucked

[@Psychedelic_fox]

I wish they had a huge theme park for all the good cartoons and shows. Including hanna Barbara, cartoon network, and the 90s nick classics. Kinda like an awesome nostalgia land for people

[@zillauniverse7208]

I never knew bedrock city was real 😂

[@juniper81182]

I don't remember going on most of the HB or Nickelodeon rides at Kings Island but I do vaguely remember the splash pad/jungle gym where you could get slimed (colored water) on. My brother and I did get a container of Slime from one of the gift shops. I also remember one of my cousins was about 2 or 3 and they cried when we were just barely in the Nickelodeon area because one of the costumed people came over for pictures.

[@davidbrown1438]

I think you made a slight error at @6:32. You stated that The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera closed in 2012 when it actually closed in 2002. Must've been a slip of the tongue. Another great video otherwise!!!

[@YesterworldEntertainment]

You are 100% correct, for some reason I'm the worst at correctly reading dates off script!

[@rothea]

Carowinds!!! Yay!!!! I so rarely see videos like this talk about Carowinds and it's always a treat to see the place of so many yearly summer memories in videos like this. Granted, you could see it as a good thing that Carowinds is rarely mentioned- an uninteresting history is a smooth one, by all accounts- but I remember many rides and themes being changed, reworked, or torn down entirely. Thunder Road just got demolished a few years ago and I'd love to see that covered by a channel like this someday.

[@MrStGeorgeIllawarra]

Llama, llama llama llama llama.

[@erinseabolt1807]

i went to the bedrock city in south dakota in the 90s and loved when you could ride around in a car drven by a park employee. it was really cool to see the houses and characters

[@driediger]

im from a town near chilliwack (where the second exhibit is) and oh lord that might be the worst pronunciation of the towns name ive ever heard

[@saviours_three9996]

Spooty Spin was my FAVOURITE dreamworld ride ❤️

[@CloveClover02]

My family and I went to South Dakota about four years ago and one of our hotels was right across from Bedrock City. We actually went to the gift shop for it, but we didn't actually go in the park as it was expensive (I'm talking around $20 per person) and it didn't look like it was maintained very well. It closed about a month or so after we finished our tip.

[@epicphail2926]

I live right next to Kings Island and would always go as a kid. Seeing all of these old Nick rides gives me chills! I miss those days...

[@SuperstarCandy]

Grand dad? Fleenstones?

[@mareeedensos2805]

7 Grande Dád

[@ureldestemo]

This video gave me the best nostalgia! Anyone remember Paramount's Great America? I use to go to the one in Santa Clara, CA, and you could get slimed, the Rugrats were everywhere, and everything was neon green and orange. Times were simpler back then 😂

[@frost5684]

wait the flinstones was more for ADULTS? well damn

[@mareeedensos2805]

You grew up with Fleenstones too?

[@thatswhatshesaid2777]

6:34 I don't think that's right. Jimmy Neutron was cancelled before 2012. I think you mixed it with the date of the despicable me ride

[@DaimosZ]

I saw the remains of the South Dakota Bedrock Park while passing by South Dakota on our families way back from vacation in Washington state in 2011 and my Step-Dad brought up how he and my step brother went there years ago and weren't impressed
