    Thank You all for joining us on another adventure.
    I loved going to Brigantine as a kid. This Video meant a lot to me. Brigantine Castle was a part of my childhood. It wanted me to get into the haunt industry. My dream is to open a haunted house. I hope you all enjoy this video as much as I took a lot of time and pride putting it together!

    My father lived there and I would go visit him when I was a kid. He would give me money in the morning before he went to work and spend all day at the castle. I still have my pac man jug and matching glasses I got with my tickets. I was so sad when I found out it was closed after a storm damaged the pier. I wish I bought some castle merch before it closed.

      I was there in either 77 or 78! We stayed in Atlantic City, I was 6 or 7 years old. The Castle was the best vacation memory I ever had!
      Went back in the late 90s or very early 00s to show my husband and I couldn't find it. Went into the Pirates Den and ate and asked if they had ever heard of the castle and where was it.
      Waitress was so nice, she told us about the fire, she showed us all these amazing pictures and pointed out the location. I think there were still a few pillars? Or maybe I just don't remember correctly. I was sad it was gone. I don't know if I really thought it would still be there and open to the public or not. It was a magical place.

    Oh man, the Castle was my favorite place on earth. Me and my friends would go through and come out and go right back in...and you know what? It was completely different! They rotated actors very frequently.
    We would wait for a lively looking group to walk through with and then mess with them. When we walked through Professor Rat's dark cellar, (there were hoses along the bottom of the wall to brush your ankles) we would get down and pinch the ankles of the people in front of us...LMAO. You want to hear screaming!
    All the actors were amazing! Especially the one's who sat perfectly still in the first room so you thought they were a portrait...then they would jump out and everybody lost their minds!
    It was awesome in it's prime, but eventually there was crime inside the castle, and then there were security guards with flashlights at the end of every hall, and the dark areas were lit up too much.
    I feel lucky to have been there during it's prime, when it was amazing....I was about 13 at the time.

      @@TheEastCoastSensation I've been to the Wildwood castle during the same era...not as good, but the glass floor 2 stories over the ocean was creepy.
      Brigantine Castle had an aura completely unto it's own. I was a Brigantine rat in the 80's...even had friends who worked at the Brigantine Hotel and we had free run of the place in off season.
      I also remember Cinema 180 across the street from the castle..huge 180˚ screen that made you dizzy....remember that?

    I'm 57yo and spent all my summers as a kid in Brigantine. Can't begin to tell you all the amazing memories made down there. The Castle/ Pier, Pirates Den, Arcade,Trampolines,Dairy Queen, Surf n Sundries,pizza palace,fudge shoppe, island diner, barefoot pub at the hotel to play pinball. Sneaking into the hotel pool. Same neighbors/summertime friends on the street for years. Beach all day everyday right next to the hotel...playing outside every night. Every summer up until about 16yo. Then start going to wildwood with friends. Amazingly simple times. Always returned for daytrips to the beach. Small and quiet. My little one loved the beach there.

I never went to Brigantine Castle or Haunted Mansion because the commercials themselves convinced me not to. I was too afraid, lol.

    spent every summer in Brigantine. I worked at the pier giving change at the arcade at night. I was a lifeguard during the day right next to the pier. I did not know it was gone. I watched it being built and attended the grand opening. This fishing pier at the end was popular. Plus there was a bar. Then there was a fire and they built the castle. Also, arcade right across the street. Many good memories.

    I really enjoyed your video. I wish I would have went through it. I am 51 years old . I remember the commercial in the 70's when I was little. It had a girl running out screaming from the castle. My Grandparents used to take me to Wildwood all the time every summer. I loved Castle Dracula. The first time I went through that I was 11 in 1981. I loved the entrance when you first go in and they would jump out of the picture frame. Was Brigantine built before Castle Dracula? I know Brigantine was the Grandfather to all of them. That was the first one that everyone really talked about. I can relate to what you said about the smell. I used to like the smell of Castle Dracula when you first went in. I am glad you had that experience. Would love to hear you talk about the inside of the castle. God Bless!

    My mother’s family was from there used to visit from Maryland from 1970-1980. Used to go to the castle a lot it was a 1 mile away from our grandmother house used to scare my 4 sisters. also used to go to the outside trampoline center it had 12 individual trampolines in a grid format one of the employees would do flips from one to the other. Also at the lighthouse there was this Italian sub shop had great meatball subs. Then the casinos moved in and it changed. Remember my uncle and aunt getting there house built at N Shore bay next to the gulf corse.

    Thank you so much for this fun and informative video. I am from Philadelphia and spent every summer as a child from the age of about 2 to about 8 at Brigantine with my aunt, cousin and grandmother. Although I have lived all over the world, Brigantine remains my most beloved spot on the planet. I have so many happy memories from there: the beautiful ocean, of course, the sand, the sea air, the seabirds, large and small. I remember the pier very well, but I was gone from the area before the Castle was built. We always stayed at Jordan's Motel. Does anyone out there remember Jordan's? It was run by a very nice older man and his wife, and we always took an apt with a kitchenette. So much fun! Mr. Jordan used to show movies on a big screen against the side of his motel on Friday nights, and everyone was welcome. At that time, at the foot of the pier, there was a small amusement park with a ferris wheel and a place that served great ice cream. Maybe it was the same people who owned what became The Pirate's Den? Not sure. There is something so magical about this area of the coast; you are right -- you can smell it in the air. The pitch from the pier ballasts, I think, is what causes that smell. The constant changes in the weather are fascinating and beautiful, and even in the rain, Brigantine is beautiful. The beach is a lot smaller than I remember it, but it is still beautiful. I am glad to see that it has mostly remained low-key, relaxing and unspoiled. Brigantine = Heaven On Earth. Thank you again.

      Thank You so much for watching. So happy you enjoyed the video. Brigantine has a special place in my heart. My dad took us many of place but brigantine and that castle gave me so much excitement. It’s my dream To open a haunted attraction. We go to Transworld haunt attraction so every year just to keep it going strong in my heart. (Check out those videos on our channel).
      We visit brigantine every year when we travel to the east coast.
      Again, thanks for watching! 😊

      Castle Dracula 🧛‍♂️ was similar in many ways to Brigantine Castle. They did the same thing when Dracula jumped out at you from the picture Frame. They also did shows as well. Like the be heading. Now, nothing on earth was like Brigantine Castle but castle Dracula was close. Enjoy our other videos. Thanks for watching!

Used to go there a lot when I was a kid. When the tide is super low the smell is stronger bc the bottom of the bay is exposed. I used to live in Brigantine but on the south end (22nd st south)
