Doug Higley's FUN little book "Scary Dark Rides"
This is a FUN read! It is NOT a list of Dark Rides or dry boring statistics, it was written for EVERYBODY. It IS the 'soul' of what these rides are all about from their portable beginnings in Carnivals to today's big Theme Parks. It's NOT a How-To but more a Why-To, a chemistry if you will of what we do when we choose to get scared for fun. Not just for ride geeks either, because as it turns out...
Even most die hard Theme Park fans don't know the whole story... because it had never been told till this little book turned the lights on!
With side trips to Disneyland, Coney Island Sideshows, the Live Spook Shows that were all the rage in theaters of the 40's & 50's and even old Drive-In Horror Movies. It's a very personal Tour with an insider perspective, from a keen observer of
what Entertainment In The Dark is really all about.
