That's the fun part , Dave, sneaking around. My daughter and I used to go to all kinds of places and explore. Those were the best times of my life!

I used to live in a summer cottage right next to the park with my family for many years, and my brother, myself and our friends from other cottages would spend hours at the park. We went every day. We were crazy teenagers who would be exploring the grounds (even the dump looking for metal items to cash in to put towards gas money for our friend Scott's truck), jumping off the dock, finding new ways to sneak in, and checking out the soaking wet girls who were leaving the "Flume" (log ride) that were trying desperately to cover themselves up because had white t-shirts on ;), I wouldn't trade those years for anything. I've got a story for every one of those rides.

there are coyotes in that area of Warwick RI now. I lived there and went to Rocky Point a few times every summer. I miss it very much. there was always something so magical being there with the salt water breeze in the air. My favorite ride was the Music Express. What's better than getting thrown around and aound to blaring music! I wish there was still a park there my kids would love it. SO much better than these huge parks like six flags. thanks for the memories!

The quote you refer to was indeed inscribed inside the RP House of Horrors. It was located at the very beginning of the ride either on or near to the first set of swinging doors that the car sort of crashed through when you went on the ride.

I believe you had a slight typo. The quote read "When there is no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth". Almost the same - but just in case you were going for accuracy.
