Growing up it was always OC for my family so I never went elsewhere. The House at the OC Boardwalk though was a masterpiece. Granted my nostalgic mind could be making it 100 times better than it was, but I have compared every single haunt to it since I was a kid and nothing has come close for me at least.

I never went in; presumably my parents didn't want to deal with soiled pants on their watch. It feels like a HUGE hole in my life experience repertoire - we used to go to O.C. in the late 70s and early 80s, but for whatever reason my parents started doing other vacations when I was 9 (1984), so I never really got a good look at the mansion as an older kid. <br /><br />A friend of mine's family who I met as a teenager had a little beach place outside of Rehoboth, and in my late teens/early 20s spent a lot of time there. I don't know why we never drove down to O.C., but we never did. On the other hand, though, the ride-through haunted house on the Rehoboth boardwalk is a masterpiece of a different sort. I try to get down that way once every couple years at least, and ride it as many times as I can manage. <br /><br />Benjaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972445244815090800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8730613463365041627.post-55622663423776773132017-08-14T15:42:51.745-07:002017-08-14T15:42:51.745-07:00I would love to get more photos of the house insid...I would love to get more photos of the house inside and out.

My little brother ended up protecting me while I clung to him and cried. He was yelling, "Fuck you! Leave my brother alone!" He had to have been six. He still tells that story. I recall a dark hallway where loud noises and bright lights would momentarily flash on to illuminate some ghastly scene; I even remember things lighting up in glass panels in the floor, though I could be embellishing the memory. A fond piece of my childhood.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023550332415651647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8730613463365041627.post-32874205879670309682017-08-12T10:08:27.057-07:002017-08-12T10:08:27.057-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023550332415651647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8730613463365041627.post-61429182164933295912016-10-29T02:40:44.653-07:002016-10-29T02:40:44.653-07:00I knew a few of the originals that worked there wh...I knew a few of the originals that worked there when it opened..as a matter of fact I still talk to one of them regularly...he loved working there as much as people loved coming.

I loved that place. But you forgot to mention the intro rm where guy I think would conduct mock seance in circular rm which would start spinning & your chair would rise & the cloaked speakers head lower & get deeper. Then there was the guy w/ chainsaw at end of tour which scared the #!* outta me but the intro part was best/awesome/thx for posting pics.
