Future Chad here, I had to cut out parts of the video over someone thinking they own the copyright to event footage so if it seems weirdly edited now, that's why. Apologies.
Tell them that I hate them now 😂😂😂
The depressed oompa loompa is probably the best part of the experience.
That pic is the best thing we will get all year
Mon the Glaswegians 😂😂
Idk how any family was duped by this and not to take the blame off the event organisers but it was so obvious long before it was a scam 😂😂
Yes
If I was her, I'd be that depressed too
The Unknown
Oompa Loompa Doopity Duped?
first reply!?
“SpongeBob” predicted this according to Vailskibum.
Oompa Loompa Doopity Duped
This is literally the SpongeBob Krabby Land episode
@@RockeBrosyep
I feel sorry for the parts and the actors in it. Apparently the actors got conned into the scam too and they were trying their best to make the kids happy and have a good time
I feel bad too
I feel bad that the lady in the thumbnail is having her face associated with this.
They weren't paid.
I don't know, because after the event got shut down midday, one of the actors said a few of them said F this, and they ended up at a local pub, but to be fair I might of done the same if I was getting stiffed on the pay. 😅
exactly,and they weren't paid either. I watched a video earlier about it,and a couple of the actors had to do 12 hour shifts for 3 DAYS STRAIGHT
This is like Dash Con for children. Instead of a kiddie pool "ball pit" they get a half inflated bounce house and 2 jellybeans.
I didn't see your comment before I wrote that this reminded me of Dashcon, oops
And nightmares from The Unknown
And don't forget a half cup of Tesco lemonade
Dash con was the immediate first place my mind went when I heard about all this
It was actually just one jellybean per kid
Props to the actors for knowing it was a scam, not being happy about it, but doing their best to make sure the kids had as fun of a time as they can.
That’s what I love I’d do anything to make the kids happy because some of those kids looked so sad
The local schools and churches in my town have put a lot more effort and dedication into their Halloween, Easter, etc events than House of Illuminati has in their “Wonka Experience”.
I did and I don't do anything for them.
I can’t get over the fact there’s a company called HOUSE of the ILLUMINATI!😅😂
IKR? That's what I was thinking too!
@@gracekim25you should look up "conspiracy entertainment " and their video games
Trixie in toyland, ninjabread man, Anubis II. As well as a couple others like them
"his". It's literally one scam artist with a fake company, all the employees were hired a few days before the event opened.
New scam?? CHAD, WE NEED YOU.
Oh hi Peanut B. Gamer
100℅ real Peebs??!!
Chat is this real??????
Yes it is. Him and Peebs are friends
YOOO
@@ManAndDogFan777 It's a meme. 👀
Apparently, Slopes Game Room was able to interview a bunch of the folks who were tricked into being involved and did some digging into the backstory of the guy who created it. Dude's a serial scammer.
Well, there goes my theory about maybe funding/vendors fell through, but instead of canceling they did this. Trying to give the benefit of the doubt.
You know this event was a massive failure when Chadtronic makes a video on it just 2 days after it happened
I thought it was last week 😅
didn't realize it was that recent, used to him covering stuff that happened years ago.
I kinda agree, my feed has been flooded with this event, it wasnt until i saw Chad's video that i was like "Okay....this is serious..."
Chadtronic does this news stuff better than Vail
you promised these kids Krabby the Clown but all I saw out there was Cheapy the Cheapskate
Six Flags is like 36 bucks a ticket … and this place is more expensive than Six Flags….
Six Red Flags
I think alton towers is the closes park to scotland but im sure its a similar price and a better experience they could do a wonka experience during easter.
@@Wingcake1 i know you meant the closet (sorta) but thats in like... stoke-on-trent
@@katsudon2048 yeah i checked its 4-5 hr drive it aint that close to london either im hoping universal britain is closer but i heard birmingham is the most likely location still amazing to have nintendo and potter in one place.
Flamingo land is closer to Glasgow 😊 and still hours away 😂 not sure if there is any theme park in Scotland 😮
Can we discuss how the depressed Oompa Loompa standing in front of a bunch of science equipment looks closer to a meth lab than a legitimate event?
Even Walter White has better standards than the scammers behind the event.
Walter White cared about the quality of his product.
Something about that just made me laugh, I feel bad for the actor lmao
That's all people have been talking about, and that seems evil to a lady trying her best
"Jessie I will not contaminate my pure coco product with high fructose corn syrup !"@@championofthedarksoul4200
Come with me, and you’ll be, in a world of pure inebriation
😂😂
That tour was more realistic and it was animated! Also I know the joke about Glaswegians.
Though the beer might be free, You're just renting it from me.
The totally stoned and depressed Oompa Loompa woman standing there was the best part of the entire experience.
Fun fact, the props are completely generic santa set props from a christmas supply company, have had to use them in my own work, it's hilarious that I recognise almost every single prop in use here out of the company catalogue
Can you tell us the company name?
EPH Creative has added a lot more items to their selection. They have diffrent decade themed stuff now, and Alice in Wonderland, and Caribbean themed stuff. If I ever win the lotto though, I'm recreating this gym of an experance
@@georgesiv2082EPH Creative. They have a lot more stuff now.
2:58 That one actually might be a legit call. Pretending to order pizza is often code for a domestic violence call.
I didn't know that, that's good to know!
lol false. This shits been debunked. Please don’t spread lies like this about serious topics kthnx.
@@horse14tit’s a lie.
True, it's a way to call police without the abuser being aware of it. Unfortunately not all dispatchers know about it and will not take it serious..
@@fritzy8318It happened 1 time that a girl was pretending to order pizza and trying to code to the operator to send police
This reminds me of that one SpongeBob episode where Mr. Krabs gets kids hyped up for Krabby Land only for it to be a scam.
I give you, KRABBY LAND!
Same energy
You’ll feel so krabby afterwards…
Better ask SpongeBob for a refund…
Crappy land
[The sound of crying children can be heard in the background]
But some how Mr Krabs did more than this
"Willy's Chocolate Experience"
Heh, here's a more suitable name:
Willy Wonka's Effortless Scam Warehouse
True
Stop, my sides!
Isn't that just the normal willy wonka?
Think about it
The man literally placed 5 tickets in a million bars of chocolate, which is an easier way to get more profits.
Then there's the kids that get into the factory, in which they are in danger from angry squirrels to chocolate rivers.
So the wonka factory in itself is a scam in order for willy wonka to get some more money.
Cheapy the cheapskate's effortless scam warehouse
Willy's Chocolate Experience sounds like a name of an adult event where you make a mold from your own willy and then pour chocolate in that mold.
Despite the shitshow of it all, the man who played Wonka and the Oompa Loompa woman were really trying to make it fun for the kids. Props to them! 👍
Yeah, it's not their faults. They did the best with what little they had. Hope they get compensated for this.
@@Phoebe5448 they didn't get paid. The organizer has a history of scamming people.
@@emilymann1175 damn, that's horrible. I hope they get some form of compensation either way.
It should be noted the "depressed" Oopma Loompa girl is a bad picture of her; she was actually trying to do her best to make the kids happy with what little she had to work with. (The picture was taken right after she was told to abandon the script and just improv)
I mean I personally would like to think she probably doesn’t think too badly of the fact the internet finds the image funny, that there is some kind of joy coming from this godawful event.
🎶come with me, and you’ll be, in a world of copyright violations🎶
LOL
They only implied it was based on the famous movie. They never used the full name of the movie. So it may have legally bypassed the copyright law.
@@Videogamer-555 yeah good point
@@Videogamer-555 They also used alternate names for the characters. Like the Wonka clone was actually called Willy McDuff while the "Oompa Loompas" were called Wonkidoodles.
My opinions on this is that while yes, there where obvious red flags from the start that this was going to be bad, I feel like its hard to say it was easy to assume it would be this bad! Like I would at the very least assume they would have more than a single bouncy castle for some kids to play with, and at the very least give the kids some candy. But a single Jelly bean and 1/4 a cup of lemonade? And they charged $30-$40 for tickets?! Like I went to fall festivals at my school that where better prepared than this! My elementary school put on a haunted house with better decorations than this, and they sure as hell didn't ask everyone coming to spend $40 on it months ahead of time! Like even for a cheap, local knock-off event for the kids this is pitiful!
“Oompa Loompa doputy do I’m feeling depressed how about you?”
The oompa loompa is in its early stages of depression
No wonder she's cooking meth
Yeh. 😞😢
So this is what Bart and Milhouse did with that factory they bought for a dollar
the unknown was the best part of this scam.
the best part is the oomph Loompa meth lab was really meme into the ground and I find it funny
Don’t know who I feel more sorry for, the actors who were clearly as blindsided as the attendees, or the very young children for whom this had to be their first lesson in life being full of disappointments.
I swear, if I walked into this with my young child(ren), we would be out so fast. This sketchy af setup seriously looks like the perfect environment for an actual kidnapper to be prowling around.
I heard some people say a bunch of disgruntled customers started stealing items from the venue, and not to encourage criminal activity, but from what I can tell the only security was two bouncers who's main job appeared to be defending the organizer himself from angry customers demanding refunds so I think a bunch of people really could have just started looting the place and walked off with a lot of those giant expensive props if they wanted to,.
This whole event looks like a convention was planned, but then cancelled and the only panel that got confirmed for that convention didn't get the memo about the event being cancelled. The panel that missed out on the news then tried to run the event their own way in the same location the convention was supposed to happen. All the empty space is giving me that feeling.
That is hilarious! Thank you for making this comment!
Even the Wonka actor was disappointed.
The news got it completely wrong
Parents didn’t call the cops, the event organiser did when parents got angry and the bouncers the organiser hired couldn’t control the crowd
The fact that this event has potential is the most sad part :(
If it was an actual competent company with actual staff, planning and design, definitely! I bet it was just one dude doing this.
@@Phoebe5448 Believe it or not, you hit the nail right in the head. This one person destroyed the reputation of many others. In fact, he was a serial scammer.
Whoever was behind this didn't care about children, they only wanted their parents' money. The fact that their feeble minds were easily manipulated by an empty building filled with bad cardboard stage props was no skin off their nose.
They promised those kids willy the wonka, but all I saw was cheapy the cheapskate
@jacobrobert9561 they were crooks, cheats, and swindlers, that's what they were. How could they do a thing like this? Build up children's hopes and then smash all their dreams to pieces! They were inhuman monsters!
@@jacobrobert9561 the people behind this should be force-fed that green stuff!
Maybe they should have kept their kids in school
@@Plsrateeight definitely!
When they eventually make a sequel to Wonka, there needs to be a scene referencing this.
Like straight up just hire all the actors from the original event, open with them luring people into a fake factory and then have Timothee Chalamet come in and wreck up the place before taking the customers to the real factory. The internet would go crazy
I really really hope so! I would love that.
Feels like that one FNAF game where the pizzeria turns out to be fake.
Even Stephen Colbert was talking about this fiasco. Had I been there myself, my first thought would be "I've seen better thought out indoor mini golf courses than this".
I love indoor mini golf! There are so many more immersive ones than this.
Iirc the 911 pizza hut thing was intentional because they were like at a bad place, kidnapped or smth and they were made to order a pizza but they called the police and pretended they were ordering so the kidnapper wouldn't know
Can you actually do that (if the person you're with doesn't demand speakerphone) or do they just go "ugh pranksters" and hang up/very loudly go "YOU! HAVE! CALLED! 999! ARE YOU DEAF!!!" So the caller gets caught out?
@@Roadent1241nope. It’s a lie.
So there’s more than one liar huh.
@@Roadent1241 People have definitely used it before. There's news videos of people using it as code with the dispatcher before. That said, it's a coin toss whether the operator catches on or just hangs up.
@@fritzy8318 where did it say it was fake
You can, literally, get better, immersive fan experiences from the prop setups at comic con. Some people, even, used animatronic dinosaurs.
So... my dad asked me to go to a boat show a week or so ago.
We went. It was not a boat show as much as boats congergating in a mall parking lot and bragging to each other about how overpriced they are. It took then less the 10 minutes and so we had to go find something else to do. Good news we didnt have to pay to be decieved at least...
We have car shows like this where I live, they're usually restored vintage cars or cars with unique customizations. So yeah, it's people showing off their means of transport, but at least it's usually involving their own skill and artistic choices lol.
@psychotophatcat lol I've been to a lot of car shows and other things like that. I love going to events like that to go "adult trick-or-treating" 🤣
This was such a weird and dead event. No one even talked to us tge whole time. Only saw 5 people and 3 looked like they worked at the event. It was bizzare and kinda creepy.
I find it so hilarious how viral this thing has gone, I’m from Scotland and had seen some posts by people who went and now it’s everywhere.
If Willy Wonka was public domain we'd know because someone would have made a horror film on it
That original movie is a bit of a horror film in it's own right!
@@Slicedude2004 true, although the 2005 reboot version ( the one I grew up with unfortunately ) is more of a horror movie in my opinion, Tim Burton directed it and Johnny Depp looked less whimsical and more serial killery in my opinion
Well we just found out they're making a movie about The Unknown!
Bro predicted it 💀
Apparently the stage play version (or one of them I've heard) has more horror to it already.
The Unknown should be a guest star in your cursed commercial episodes I think
I would have used the title of the newscast as "From pure imagination, to pure indignation."
I like the guy they picked for Willy Wonka. He literally auditioned for an Oompa Loompa and given Willy Wonka and he said he looks more like an Oompa Loompa 😂
But noooooo they had to cast girls cause the only Oompa Loompa costumes they could find were sexy Oompa Loompa Halloween costumes
@@mrcritical6751female Oompa Loompas are am actual thing, their clothing are made of grass and leaves while the males' are made of animal skins, in the book they still wore their jungle clothing even when they moved to the Factory
@@hubertberrum6242 yep, I remember that from the book, they even somewhat had that in the Tim Burton version by having Willy briefly greet a Oompa Loompah receptionist who was still played by Deep Roy just one wearing a feminine wig and dress. Here though it was just pure laziness because Billy could only afford a pair of crappy women’s sexy Oompa Loompah costumes
@@mrcritical6751 I see
They even spelled "February" wrong on the ad at 3:48
This is rather sad.
For the actors...
For the kids...
For the duped parents...
What a mess.
The chocolate river looks like a giant Pop Tart.
That teaser for Breaking Oompa sure has me excited
😂😂😂
An instance of parents being totally justified in being upset
seeing the old intro just took me back
I think we can all relate to the depressed oompa loompa image on a personal level
With how empty this event was I'm surprised there wasn't a ballpit in the middle of the room
The actors definitely deserve a second chance to show their skills or lack there of cause this isn’t a fair look at them since they’re also scammed
Now what kind of candy d'ya want?
Sweet chocolate, chocolate malted candy, gumdrops?
We have none of that!
You've come to the wrong place, because it's a Candy Scam!
Who can take a warehouse (who can take a warehouse)
Color it all gray (color it all gray)
Not have any chocolate and it ruins your day?
The Candy Scam (the Candy Scam)
Oh, the Candy Scam can (the Candy Scam can)
The Candy Scam can 'cause it takes your money!
And now you all get duped!
😂😭👏
why does give me flashbacks to the DashCon event years ago?
EXTRA HOUR IN THE BALL PIT!
Fitting enough, DashCon will turn 10 years this year since the dumpster fire
I had a dream about an experience like this, but it was holiday themed, not Willy Wonka themed.
The depressed oompa loompa image is just funny, with the fog, makes it looks like a meth lab.
Those poor kids. This reminds me of the community events we would have when I was a kid. I grew up in a very rural area. The people meant well, but they were so depressing to go to. But it was understandable since it was free and mostly volunteer run. This on the other hand is just a sick scam
Instead. If refunds the kids can have an extra hour in the ball pit- I mean chocolate cardboard river.
If any children want to go to a chocolate factory experience in the UK, you should probably just take them to cadbury world.
SpongeBob actually predicted it
They had a Moe's Tavern promotion that was supposed to be "Moe's Tavern." It was a $35 experience just go in plus additional cost to drink. It was underwhelming from photos I saw. I saw a location at the jersey shore and saw the back room where "the bar" was. I am SOOOOO glad i didn't spend that $35.
That sounds very interesting. I’m a huge Simpsons fan, so any thing about the Simpsons interests me. Thank you for the info
A lot of the props are just christmas props. Candy canes, the red swirly tree...
SpongeBob predicted this
10:22 So I guess Debby Downer became an Oompa Loompa...
As someone who has helped out/participated in a "Willy Wonka" themed Church event (Vacation Bible School to be specific) last year for our Children's Ministry... This DEFINITELY looks like stuff we would have used for the event.
Except our church is small, so almost all the stuff wouldn't have been as spread out. We also didn't have our character actors look like they worked in a meth lab (Though we did have a small to nonexistent budget for costumes and set peices), and we stayed close to the "Wonka Canon", no creepy beings living in the walls making chocolate! Oh, and we also ACTUALLY served Chocolate to the kids. No one had to waste $40 to come to our "Wonka Experiance".
There was a pop up event in Atlanta called Candytopia that feels like what this was trying to be. It was dumb, but at least there was candy in every room.
I thought it was (somewhat) cool.
@@agentkmr my memory of it is probably tainted because my husband lost his watch in the marshmallow pit.
@@drowsypoppy
I lost my sunglasses in that pit, but I didn't really care because I considered them to be a gift from me.
They were children's glasses themed to Hatchimals of all things.
That looks awesome tbh
of course this would be a glasgow thing - im so proud of my city
I laughed my socks off at 4:48 😂😂😂😂😂 nice use of a movie scene.
So many TH-camrs I know are making videos on this story and I’m honestly all for it, I’ve had a really tough week and anything funny to distract from the pain is very much welcome.
9:53 What the frik? 😂😂😂😂😂😂. That needs to be a meme
Chadtronic is so funny now i’m actually so glad i started to watch him again
5:04. Breaking Oompa
Been waiting for you to cover this since it’s all over every channel 😂
i cant believe i live in the city this happened in
This is an officially a part of “The Wonka Universe.”
Somebody make sure the oompa loompas are okay
_Two_ jellybeans.
I probably shouldn't be laughing, but somehow that fit in with the randomness that Wonka kind of had going for him. I _might_ have been amused if I attended this mess.
The Oompa Loompa looks like depressed and got scammed two jellybeans and lemonade
You know things have indeed gone wrong when MrBeast's Chocolate Factory looks more authentic than this dumpster fire.
The props look okay, there was just not enough of them to fill that large venue. Maybe they could downscale next time, perhaps host the event in a trailer van. Also bring back that nice meth oompa loompa lady, have her serve some lucy flavored jelly beans and everyone will have a good time of pure imagination.
Can't imagine a paradise of "sweet t e a t s" being kid-friendly.
Not sure if anybody has mentioned it but that 911 dispatcher at 2:59 needs to be fired. Calling 911 and ordering a pizza is a pretty well known code for a domestic abuse situation where the abuser has the potential to become violent.
Finally, Parents are upset about something reasonable
Come with me
and you'll be
in a world of scams and litigation
I love this story, I heard it from my brother first. Glad you’re telling it!
chadtronic talking about this wasnt on my bucketlist but im so here for it
Oompa Loompa Doo, I've got a perfect puzzle for you, Oompa Loompa doopity dee, if you are wise, you'll listen to me. (Make the rest of the song out of this scam)
We know that you need some money
That you can buy a jar of honey
But you could've had a little bit of luck
If you didn't scam kids for a single buck
The police are here so grab a duck
Oompa loompa doo ba de da
If you're not greedy you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the oompa loompa do ba see doo
*end*
I been watchin Chadtronic for 6 YEARS
I've been watching for 7 years now if I'm counting correctly. Since 2016!
It’s been a whole week since I’ve discovered this fiasco and I can’t get enough of it! What a time be alive and on the internet 😂
i havent watch you in a long while since your cursed commercials series. its good to see a video come up on my recommendations! and you still got your sponsor with G-Fuel!
This video was uploaded at 15:15
freedom units pls 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Everybody was talking about this and boy the parents got scammed and I think that the parents is going to sue that company from lying and not finishing it up and the person who made the artwork is like totally upset.
Keep the kids in school don't take them out of school for frivolous crap
“Oh, look at some painted cardboard wow!” had me laughing 😂😂😂
This year is un-matched
Love your videos and channel, Chad. I’m a huge fan!
I’m shocked that Warner Brothers hasn’t said anything yet. If anything, they could sue for misusing the Wonka IP
This whole thing makes Craggy Island Fun Land look like Disney land in comparison. (Father Ted reference, anyone?)
