The Haunted Castle at Six Flags Great Adventure always drew a big crowd. People often waited for more than an hour to get into the spooky, dimly-lit corridors of the castle. But the Haunted Castle was scarier than the crowds at Six Flags would have ever imagined. The attraction was filled with flammable decor. It had very few emergency exits. There were no smoke detectors. Six Flags' management was well aware of the Haunted Castles' defects, but they refused to take basic safety precautions. Afterall, those efforts would have cost money. And now for a note about our process. For this episode, Kristin read a bunch of articles, then spat them back out in her very limited vocabulary. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: Storybook Amusement channel on YouTube, “The disaster that changed theme parks forever: Haunted Castle at Six Flags Great Adventure” The Documentary “Doorway to Hell? The Mystery and Controversy Surrounding the Fire at the Haunted Castle” “Officials recall code violations at Theme Park,” by Donald Janson, New York Times “Blaze fatal to 8 linked to lighter,” by Lindsey Gruson, New York Times “Worker at Great Adventure cites delay in reporting fire,” by Donald Janson, New York Times “Girl tells court about escaping fun house fire,” by Donald Janson, New York Times “Amusement park owners go on trial for fire that killed 8,” New York Times “Closing statements to jurors are made in park fire trial,” by Donald Janson, New York Times “Fire safety official criticized for testimony on fatal Jersey blaze,” by Thomas J. Knudson, New York Times “Charges dropped in Six Flags case,” Associated Press “Settlement in fire at park in Jersey,” Associated Press “Amusement park crisis management,” Joe Costal Rowan University YOU'RE STILL READING?

Chuck Lambert Interview Chuck's musical education started long before he picked up a guitar. At age eight, he studied oboe and piano.  Four years later his godfather exposed him to the musical diversity of Caribbean culture and encouraged him to play guitar.  While in high school he played bass and guitar in small R&B combos, rubbing elbows and jamming with future members of Parliament Funkadelic. While attending Lafayette College in the early 70's, he was a member of the Tim McCabe Blues Gang. The band's primary function was that of a backup band for touring blues legends on the East Coast college circuit. It was then that he was able to play for legends John Lee Hooker, J.B. Hutto and Screamin' Jay Hawkins. He also gained valuable exposure playing college parties and small clubs in the Delaware River Valley. Most recently, Chuck has been playing guitar and singing his blues for crowds up and down the Jersey Shore, Philadelphia New York City and metropolitan New York areas while always returning to play venues in his hometown of Red Bank, NJ. As a member of the Norman Seldin Big Band, The Panama Chapel Band, The Cal Vetrane Blues Band, The Haugenes Project and a guest artist with The Red Bank Blues Band, Heavy Soul, Herd of Blues, Al Holmes and The Tribe, Poppa John and The Jam Band he has lent his vocal talents and guitar to many a fantastic night.  Chuck has led the band as they opened for popular artists such as Little Feat and Kenny Wayne Shepard. The band has performed in prestigious musical venues like NJPAC, The Count Basie Theatre and SOPAC. They have performed at Le Festiblues International de Montreal; The Riverhead Blues Festival in Riverhead L.I.; The Blues, Brews and BBQ Festival at Six Flags Great Adventure, Freehold NJ; The Westfield Jazz & Blues Festival in Westfield NJ; The Red Bank Jazz & Blues Festival, Riverfest and The Jazz in the Park Series in Red Bank NJ; The Clearwater Festival at Gateway National Park at Sandy Hook NJ and Asbury Park NJ; The Blues by The Beach Concert Series in Long Branch NJ and represented The Jersey Shore Jazz and Blues Foundation in 2007 and 2013 at The International Blues Competition held in Memphis Tenn.   For more on Chuck Lambert-https://www.chucklambert.com/schedule

De glädjefulla skriken svischar förbi från bergochdalbanan, barn med sockervadd i händerna springer skrattandes mellan attraktionerna och det nyförälskade paret kan ses strosa genom parken hand i hand. Det är en fin vårdag här i nöjesparken Six Flags Great Adventure i New Jersey i USA. Stämningen är på topp och det är många besökare här. Men så får de glada besökarna plötsligt syn på något konstigt. En 30 meter hög rökpelare kan ses stiga från spökhuset vid entrén.

He graduated from the University of Maryland with double majors in Mechanical Engineering and German Language and Literature. Before working at Six Flags, Michael was previously an engineer at Premier Rides and Lego. We know very little about how roller coasters are actually designed, so we’re very excited to learn more about the process.

Coaster Nerd Con is the yearly trek by Matt and two friends to ride as many roller coasters as they can in an 8 or 9 day period. This year, the trip included stops at Six Flags Great Adventure, Knoebels Amusement Resort, Hersheypark, Lakemont Park, Kennywood, Kings Island, Kentucky Kingdom, Holiday World, Indiana Beach Boardwalk Resort and Cedar Point. In this episode, Matt shares his observations and experiences and he and Josh turn them into valuable operational lessons.   First, Matt shares some of his favorite, most memorable moments of the trip - some that were directly influenced by the park and employees, others that were made possible by the atmosphere the park created. By discussing these individual moments, Matt and Josh drew connections between them and linked them to the intersection of guest and employee experience.   Next, Josh and Matt discuss the following observations and how they relate to a successful guest and employee experience. Make feedback easy - Six Flags had large posters with a QR code for guests to leave positive feedback for their team members. Sound/Audio matters - whether a ride spiel or a storytelling element in an attraction, if people can't hear or understand what's being said, a large portion of the story and experience is lost. Presentation matters - from Hersheypark's Ferris wheel appetizers to Kings Island's employees, the visual impression of your experience cannot be underestimated, both from the guest and employee perspective. Don't forget the human component of a tech-driven world - at Kennywood, even though the process for buying and using the skip-the-line pass was done completely from your phone, they still had people standing by to help answer questions and for “emotional support.” How do you say goodnight or goodbye to your guests (or employees)? Do you have a strategy to reinforce the great memories created so that they want to come back again and again?   This podcast wouldn't be possible without the incredible work of our amazing team: Scheduling and correspondence by Kristen Karaliunas Branding and design by Fabiana Fonseca   To connect with AttractionPros: attractionpros@gmail.com

This week Evan is back! we talk about his Poland trip, my move to Florida, and Carsten's upcoming trip to Six Flags Great Adventure and surrounding parks! We will be back on a regular recording schedule this week. Disclaimer: Kyle's Podcast suite is not set up yet and the audio for this episode is a little choppy. We also use a little adult language throughout the episode. 

So what have we been up to?  Glad you asked.  Our May and early June schedule was pretty solid and we got to revisit a lot of our local parks.  Even though we went there to enjoy the rides, food, and fun, we also got A LOT of content for our new YouTube channel (yep, we are hyping that again).  In this episode we discuss the following : 1. How are the two new Jolly Rancher themed rides at Hersheypark? 2. What's new at Dorney Park and how is Steel Force and Thunderhawk riding this season? 3. Why is Knoebels so awesome and why are the daily hours so short in 2022? 4. Why we don't have a Medusa shirt to give away and did Six Flags Great Adventure get a Home Depot credit card with all the new paint they are using? 5. Which of the tens of questions we get every month did we decide to answer in this episode of the Q? All that an more will be discussed on this weeks episode.  Don't forget to get social with us.  How?

Come take a wild safari ride in this weeks episode as we talk all about the Six Flags Great Adventure Safari. What used to be of it and what it is now. From the days of sitting back and enjoying the ride on the parks own truck to being in the comfort of your own car while giraffes lick your windows. We decide which way is better and if they should release the baboons again!

In this episode we spring forward from 2009 until the present at Six Flags Great Adventure. From the rides they have added, to Alex's first trip, to finding out Six Flags has named lands with a huge rip on another certain popular park. Our favorite rides and the rides we do because, well, we just HAVE to (even though they aren't really enjoyable). Come along for this ride as we break down the last 13 years of Six Flags Great Adventure and the unsolved mystery of the Random Drunk Guy on Skull Mountain

In this first of 3 (maybe 4) episodes, we go back before the times of Alex going to Six Flags. Back when the rides were taken away for hurting people. Back when you would get upset if you didn't get to experience that ride and live forever with a battle scar to talk about. When times were simpler but probably more reckless. When monkeys were able to climb on your car and do whatever they wanted to it. Come along with us as we reminisce (well, Greg does) all about Six Flags Great Adventure back in the day. And of course… WAWA!

It's almost summer, so it's time to go on vacation! No need to call your travel agent, because we've got you all set. Chip pitches that we all go back to 1984 to Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey for the Haunted Castle (And subsequent fire that killed eight teenagers), but James thinks maybe we should go on a road trip and visit five of the worst roadside attraction in the United States! Bon Voyage!

We take a breather from Orlando and head north to New Jersey where we breakdown a theme park near and dear to our hearts: Six Flags Great Adventure. Learn why a roller coaster at this park made Tess know she found "the one," the knock-off Haunted Mansion that Melanie always makes everyone ride, and how we found God at a Six Flags in NJ.
