657 Comments for The Enchanted Forest

I so want to just play up there!

I rode a teacup ride at Six Flags Great Adventure on Wednesday. It was a baby ride and it was the EXACT same ride that was at the Disney Parks. I didn't want to ride it but my parents made me ride with my sister. THAT messed me up BIG time. You know what else also messed me up? I had to ride a baby airplane too!!!!

i live right down the street from here... i've always wanted to buy it and fix it up and live there...

We have an Enchanted Forest; it's been around forever. Even when I was little it was ancient! our EF is right between a little town and a city, so it's pretty common for young adults my age to get summer jobs at that place... It's like something out of a weird dream. And it smells like it's been around for a good long while.

Cool shot! It's a shame that these old parks are left to decay...at least "StoryLand" and "Santa's Village" still exist.

wonder what the shed was used for?as always you manage to bring us great pics,even in jail.

motts has been arested!??! now who is going to bring us pictures

Of all the abandoned structures I have seen over the years, in real life or in photos, seeing an abandoned amusment park truly breaks my heart.

It closed when i was born??
1996! so sad..it looked really creepy but in a good way!!!!!

Hi I am 26 years old and I had my 2nd birthdaty here at the enchanted forest. They filmed the movie Crybaby here too with Johnny Depp . I have tons of pictures in photo albums of this plase if you need any, sgraham@goldstandardfinancial.net

I looked at this gallery a LOOONG time ago, and then forgot about it. I recently moved very close to The Enchanted Forest --- I walk by it a few times a week --- and have always wondered what it would be like to go down there. There's really nothing physically stopping me --- nor others --- from entering; just two chain-link fences that could easily be jumped. However, now I won't get arrested for illegal trespassing.

"This one tells a story. The beauty of childhood innocence growing into teenage nonsense."

Wow. I couldn't agree more.

Unfortunately a place like this can't survive anymore, because kids can't seem to enjoy anything that isn't battery operated, play music, light up or essentially do all the playing for you. As a parent, I try to stay awake from toys like that as much as possible, so I bet my kids would have loved a place like this.

mmm.....candy

This reminds me of the Mad Tea Party ride that is currently operating at Disneyland CA.
