Best way to adapt twilight is make one of those Japanese rent a boyfriend/girlfriend caffes, You get a lookalike of either Jacob or Edward to basically just hang around with you while on a tour of a recreation of the school and town, with scripted events like a staged figth where they "save" you
That would also be a good way to get a restaurant into twilight land, like I distinctly recall from the books that Bella went to an Italian place in Forks several times over the course of the books
@@tinleygraceeeat the door they give you a blue or red wristband that lets him know if he should speak to you in a posh (pre-Eclipse) or southern accent (post-Eclipse confederacy era)
I expected a Twilight ride at a small theme park to be a refurbished merry go round with wolves and vampires instead of horses, but these rides are top notch
Twilight seems hard to themeparkify because the setting itself, the town of Forks, is not really that whimsical, though i'd love to expeirence the first Twilight movie's iconic blue filter irl
I think it's helpful that it's in China. Seeing a small Midwestern American town is probably more interesting there. Kinda like how there's Chinatown in LA and New York New York in Las Vegas. Considering how those places operate I think an authentic US diner with American memorabilia on the walls just selling burgers and dinner food would have worked well honestly. As a themed dining experience. Maybe they could have like an audio of English background chatter and they could dress up the waiters in those old dining waitress costumes. The ones with the colored striped dresses with the aprons, poofy short sleeves, and that curly blowout perm that was popular in like the 80s but a bit more toned down to stay true to the time period.
@@yukikanegawa7470 Definitely! As a non american, yeah I know Forks is a very real and probably very typical place, but seeing as Im not used to that kind of normal, I'd still be excited to see it.
@@painttedHyena1974it extremely typical. I live in WA and went there once during my Twilight phase as a young preteen. Very small, not much if anything to actually do besides driving to Port Angeles or going back to Seattle by ferry.
This is exactly the kind of video essay I love! "Here's this thing you've never heard of that I'm obsessed with so let me break down its entire history and explore its artistic value"
I was actually interning at an experience design company when we were planning a pitch for this park. I think we were leaning more towards a dueling ride where you pick a side, werewolves or vampires, and then battle the other team. My idea was a high speed slot car test-track style ride through Volterra Italy from new moon, where you race to stop edward from revealing himself as a vampire, and would come face to face with the Volturi. Ah well, bellas journey is fine I guess.
I am a huge Twilight fan, attend the annual festival in Forks Washington, and create Twilight content on TikTok/IG, and am SHOCKED this is the first I am hearing about this!!!! Thank you for creating this informative video!!!!
The algorithm is WINNING, so glad this got recommended to me! This video is so well researched and well edited, with great narration as well. Amazing work! Seems I’m not the only one who suddenly got this video pushed to them. Hope that your channel continues to grow! :)
I think the kissing part in Bella’s ride is from “Bella’s” memory. At the end of Breaking Dawn, Bella opens up her shield to let Edward in and he can see all of Bella’s memories and the kiss is how the movie ends
I don't think the entire town of Forks doesn't have a bookstore.... She just requested an oddly specific book that would have like 3 editions circulating
Yeah but the copies would be available in one of the few places where there was a notable "res" of that particular tribe. Jacob went to school on "the Res."
Your description of Bella's Journey really made me picture the translator, confused as to what is being translated. Now I would love to have seen what a First Person perspective of "Bella being kissed" with a combination of physical sets, digital scenes, and additional smells piped in would have been like.
Hahahaha she gave a really lovely apologetic email about the gaps in the translation. I would love to have seen the first-person Bella kiss scene too, the designers were cowards!!
Wait, this is a small channel with like no comments and subs? I was fooled. I figured you were just a big theme park youtuber i'd never heard of. Insane that you aren't more known man. Awesome.
@Mike From The Party I have good news. The algorithm is picking this video up. I had advertised under a frw Defunctland videos a few times before I had a second to listen in. This is a fun. Plz can we have your Saw ride spicy take?
Wait he isn’t big? His video is so well done just as good and well put together as big glee TH-camrs! I got this video recommended under a StrangeÆons video.
Yup. Smart, well spoken interesting dude. They are 'sigh' a rare breed...unless...I hope I'm wrong...straight rt? Cuz usually if I like u this much and u own a penis, ur gay 🥰worse luck for me! U guys get all the good ones! ( Yes I'm whining)😉
@@MikeFromTheParty In a way, it already has been scaled up to Universal. The Mario Kart ride in Japan (and soon Orlando) uses a similar system for the Augmented Reality component of the ride. Before you board the ride itself, you're give a plastic 'Mario hat' to wear that the AR goggles, part of the ride vehicle itself, magnet on to.
Idk, I think they missed a huge opportunity of making a "commiting grand theft auto in Italy and then running through a maze-like Volterra to get to Edward in time" ride
Why was this video so incredibly well written and produced? Why is a youtube video about twilight theme park better than 80% of the video essays that get recommended to me?
Really surprised there’s no restaurant there Like I distinctly remember Edward and Bella going on multiple dates at an Italian restaurant in forks Also I’m really curious about what Italian food made to appeal to people in Macau would be like
instantly subbed to this channel for covering new niche theme park material rather than rehashing the same subjects that have already been picked to death :) thank you for this video, i’m very excited to watch through your catalogue!!
I genuinly enjoy your videos even tho i have 0 interest in theme parks. I just like to listen to passionate ppl that talk about things they are clearl. Passionate about! Thank you for making these :D

What a wonderful video. I really enjoyed the framing device of you info dumping me at a party. It added a certain charm to the overall style of presentation. I can't believe you have as few subscribers as you do! Consider me the proud subscriber 373! I look forward to your one million sub special.
The question of why I think is because very little happens in the grand scheme of things in Twilight. It's also a very small scope, Bella's POV. I will say, I think in the world of fandom, social media, and cosplay, I full scale recreation of the town and certain scenes for photo ops and just vibes sounds like a pretty neat idea, if a bit niche. Midnight Ride looks pretty sick, I gotta say. A shame it couldn't have been more of a psychological journey since Bella's adrenaline junkie coping was one of the few times she displayed an interesting character trait that could also be considered *gasp* a thoughtful flaw. Side note, I am *fascinated* by the concept of a vertical theme park. Like, with a huge budget, I think it could be really cool, especially if it's not necessarily tied to multiple ips or instead, an original concept.
I'm not a fan of a Twilight franchise and theme parks industry is virtually non-existent in the country I'm coming from. But this vid just popped up in my recommendations and here I am pressing that "subscribe" button after watching half hour monologue about something I'd never considered interesting before.
Man, this video is very well researched, and you are a really great narrator! I really thought i knew about most theme parks in the world, but this one catched me completely off guard! And i'm a twilight fan! Really amazing stuff! Cant wait to see more from you!
Very cool. I’m not really a Twilight fan, I’ve never read the books but I liked the movies okay, but I would consider myself a theme park nerd and I didn’t know about this place! So thanks! I also love the premise of you being at a party, that’s very clever. You’ve got yourself a new sub. :)
Mike great job on this video. I had no idea a Twilight themed land existed in any theme park. As always you do a stellar job describing everything about it
I love that you included meme footage of Bella riding past tracksuit-Rob when talking about the motorcycle midnight ride - it’s the details 😂 #twihard4life (also I was a tiny part of Storyteller’s winning film so thanks for the brief mention too🍎)
I wish talking to people at parties was really like this lol, really cool video, I'm not super interested in theme parks or twilight but it was still so much fun to learn about all this, great presentation to sound like some high school teacher ^^"
And at first when I heard this concept as like that's weird I could never see a Twilight theme park after this video now I see. I don't know if attractions are that important. However settings are. Like you said the romantic theme works for it , date crowd is definitely appealing. If they would have added wedding venues it would appeal to even more adults. So a Twilight theme park in order for to work needs to appeal to dating crowd 16 to 30 and the marriage age group 18+. I would have love for them to recreate the wedding. The meadow. And of course I love the gazebo. These would be great to recreate. Good photo ops. Like it would really work for wedding proposals too. I would have loved to seen American diner and some shops like the book shop. If remember correctly book shop is in the book but I believe she goes into bc it's one of alternative book shops, it's the kind that would sell healing crystals. I would have also like to seen a clothing shop I even have a name for it Alice's closet. Alice was always so fashionable. Native American store that sells handmade crafts from tribes in twilight. The cottage that Edward, Bella and Renesmee live in. A night stay. Other bonus settings outside of forks would be Volterra, Italy maybe an Italian restaurant. The honeymoon isle of Esme setting great for night stay. Maybe a Brazilian restaurant as well.
Okay but I’m obsessed with this whole “at a party” thing you have going on like the consistency throughout the video with the red solo cup and the end like 🤌🏽👏🏽 this was so good !!!
Even though I don’t care much for Twilight, your style of videos and your quality is so good I just had to subscribe. Great job! Edit: Also, I would never turn down the ability to talk to another dude for hours about theme parks.
I love hearing more about these niche amusements parks great video man! Reminds me of that time I went on a descent to madness after researching the Winx Club theme park 😅💙
@@MikeFromTheParty It was called "Rainbow Magic Land" first appearing in 2011 and shutting down in 2019 located in Valmontone, Italy 😄 the history behind the park is pretty fascinating and looking at old clips of it makes me wish I knew about it sooner! Definitely would've made the trip to see it in person!
Admittedly, I feel like if this was built in the states I'd probably go with my friend who's obsessed with Twilight only because I'm a theme park/attraction fan. I wouldn't be able to do the Midnight Ride attraction though because of the fact I can't really do VR due to not being able to wear contacts and thus can't see if my glasses are off. Because of how the goggles are usually built, I can't just put them over my glasses. Though it is interesting to see how VR will affect theme park and entertainment attractions in the future, it's just not something I myself can experience because of unique medical reasons.
Honestly. A Host Club style event where a bunch of hunky theme actors pretends to approach guests and claim them as their singer would be such beautiful chaos
My ADHD brain would immediately forget I was going to the bathroom if I overheard anyone talking about a twilight theme park *new hyperfixation unlocked*
@@MikeFromTheParty I would love to see more videos on VR rides and 4d/5d experiences, they're my favorite ever and it seems most theme park discussers pick either dark rides or thrill rides and ignore everything else
I thought he would drop the camp house party bit after the opening but he just… kept going Can’t decide if I love it or it’s triggering my fight or flight
I've been to Forks, for training at a gas station. It's remote and unromantic. So it weirds me out to no end that there is a "replica" of Forks in China, and that it's a themed romantic hotspot.
Just went on a trip where my group binged all 5 of the Twilight movies The algorithm is listening lol Honestly really interested in your other content so you've gained a new subscriber!
Honestly I think this might be the solution to the dying malls thing, people don’t want to go to the mall anymore so why don’t we build indoor theme parks that people can go to any weekend. I’d definitely ride the Twilight ride once a month
I can’t believe you’re such a small creator without many videos but with such amazing skills ! I am so grateful for your captions! Even though I have a fear of videos of the inside of dark ride attractions, (it’s definitely a very odd phobia,) I couldn’t look away for the entire video! Amazing work, you earned a new subscriber!
I’m ill with the flu right now and so appreciate stumbling on your channel in this feverish haze because even though I feel sick as hell I am fully enthralled with the concept of a Twilightland, and can’t wait to watch the Hunger Games video next ❤ Thanks for entertaining content!
I love the idea of this channel actually being what it’s call. Just a guy at a party rambling about an off topic thing that is interesting to him and if it’s interesting to you then you stay to let him finish. If not, you walk off. As someone who’s very neurodivergent, I’m finishing it and watching all the other videos LMAO Edit: also imagine if they ever had to sell those bikes and replace them and buying one to play biking simulators like how people play truck simulators with the car pedals and wheel would be cool af
When it comes to the kissing at the end idk why they didn't do a mirror like Bella dreams in eclipse. You easily could have used it as inspiration and had you approach eddy boy and then the ride turns towards the mirror and its Edward and Bella. Like you're looking at yourself with him. But thats a small critique
This is my first video on your channel, and it was super engaging and informative! The way you engage the viewer by asking questions actually made me feel like responding to my phone at times lol!
I went to this theme park a few years ago during the pandemic. My older brother actually worked on the park as engineer for the ticketing system. So we got the tickets for free. There were no crowds at all. Only me and my boyfriend, we were the only guests in the park. (The park is officially open at the time , just nobody heard about it so it’s empty, so they handed out a lot of free tickets hoping to bring some attention) It was a great experience, but kinda boring. the employees are super friendly and performers did a really good job just dancing and singing for us.
i stg the algorithm is not missing today. this whole party bit is a clever way to twist the typical youtube commentary format, awesome work & research here!
Great video! Love how much research you did. I used to love twilight and I still have a soft spot for it. I was actually in the theaters for breaking dawn part II. Having read the books, in which Alice's vision with everyone dying wasn't included, I figured out it must be a vision because I thought they probably wouldn't let the movie end that much different from the book. The reactions of everyone around me were golden though, true outrage. Interesting they chose to include that in the Bella's journey ride. Somehow you had me hooked from the first minute. Great job!
Thank you! I'm sure it was hilarious to experience that with a crowd for the first time, just watching the videos online of the reaction made me crack up
So interesting to hear about the system for the vr!! When I was in universal Japan they had a similar system on the Mario kart ride where your vr connects to something you put on beforehand, so the award was clearly justified!
The fact Bellas journey is a Twilight version of Gangsta Granny at Alton Towers is HILARIOUS. But more importantly, I too wish to know more on the lore implications of the ride. This is DEEP CUT Twilight lore.
@@MikeFromTheParty I work at Towers and one of the VERY few perks is free tickets so I managed to bag off peak tickets. It broke down while we were on it though, we got stuck in the fart smell bit 😂😂😭😭
I think Forks does have a bookstore. In the books Bella mentions going to port angeles because she needed to go to a speciality book store to get the vampire book.
This is my fault for not actually reading the books and just taking the opinions of the Tumblr Twihards I was following as fact! My apologies to the designers of the Twilight Theme Park land
I watch coaster and themepark videos allll the time and have for years...i am so glad i finally came across you!!!!!! You deserve way more subs!!! Great job! Also had no idea this existed lmao
I have never read the Twilight books, nor have I seen the movies, but I know about it. Half of me is surprised that there's a theme park for the franchise, the other half not surprised. Here's a Twilight related story; when I was a tween, my relatives sent me a blanket that had Edward on it. I myself wasn't interested in the gift, but my mom recognized it as being from Twilight and as she's a Christian, she got offended. She sent the blanket back and called up my relatives, demanding why did they send me that. My relatives said, "It's what the kids and stuff are into." Their response made my mom even angrier. I wonder if one of the shops at this Twilight theme park has that particular blanket...
the algorithm putting this video in my feed is like me bumping into you and being cornered and just completely unable to figure out a way to extract myself from the conversation and you know what? good. good.
im about halfway through this video and go to like it and i was shocked you didnt have a million subs omg! this video is so high quality. you deserve so much love on this
"Maybe there's a gap in the market" - for vampire and werewolf escorts that walk around with you and pretend to be your supernatural boyfriend? Yes, please.

Native American store that sells handmade crafts from tribes in twilight. The cottage that Edward, Bella and Renesmee live in. A night stay.
Other bonus settings outside of forks would be Volterra, Italy maybe an Italian restaurant. The honeymoon isle of Esme setting great for night stay. Maybe a Brazilian restaurant as well.
Okay but I’m obsessed with this whole “at a party” thing you have going on like the consistency throughout the video with the red solo cup and the end like 🤌🏽👏🏽 this was so good !!!
Thank you! I'd like to say it's not what I'm like at real parties but.... 😶
Yeah. It's actually an original, cool idea. Good job dude👍😎
I would love to see a full breakdown of this Lionsgate Park! I haven't heard anything about it and I am always fascinated by parks overseas.
Even though I don’t care much for Twilight, your style of videos and your quality is so good I just had to subscribe. Great job!
Edit: Also, I would never turn down the ability to talk to another dude for hours about theme parks.
I love hearing more about these niche amusements parks great video man! Reminds me of that time I went on a descent to madness after researching the Winx Club theme park 😅💙
THE WHAT??
@@MikeFromTheParty It was called "Rainbow Magic Land" first appearing in 2011 and shutting down in 2019 located in Valmontone, Italy 😄 the history behind the park is pretty fascinating and looking at old clips of it makes me wish I knew about it sooner! Definitely would've made the trip to see it in person!
@@novalumen1208 Well looks like I'm about to go on a descent into madness too. Thank you for sharing!
@@MikeFromTheParty No problem! Welcome to the madness club! 😆
Ooooh Winx club you say? Whaaaaat? OMG I'm gonna be busy all day now🤣
This was a great video!!! I can't wait to see more content from you! Id love to see you cover the hunger games land fully!
Holy shit I like the way you think man, think I might have just found a new favorite theme park TH-camr
Oh and we neeedd that saw the ride video
Thank you!!! The Saw video is in the works, probably not going to be the next video but the one after. My take on the ride however is a little... odd.
All your videos are so well done! Kudos to your research and very engaging video essays- especially the inclusion of subtitles :D
Thank you and glad you appreciate the subtitles! It's not my favourite part of the process but I think they're important
Oh my god, as a huge theme park nerd i'm so glad I found your channel, and as a former twilight fan, i am OBSESSED with this!!!
The perfect cross-section of interests for this video!!
Admittedly, I feel like if this was built in the states I'd probably go with my friend who's obsessed with Twilight only because I'm a theme park/attraction fan. I wouldn't be able to do the Midnight Ride attraction though because of the fact I can't really do VR due to not being able to wear contacts and thus can't see if my glasses are off. Because of how the goggles are usually built, I can't just put them over my glasses.
Though it is interesting to see how VR will affect theme park and entertainment attractions in the future, it's just not something I myself can experience because of unique medical reasons.
I hope with VR becoming more widespread, accessibility is considered more as well
Honestly. A Host Club style event where a bunch of hunky theme actors pretends to approach guests and claim them as their singer would be such beautiful chaos
My ADHD brain would immediately forget I was going to the bathroom if I overheard anyone talking about a twilight theme park *new hyperfixation unlocked*
The Avatar VR ride at Pandora is AMAZING! Super fun!
Funny you should mention that ride... might have something in the works on it 👀
@@MikeFromTheParty I would love to see more videos on VR rides and 4d/5d experiences, they're my favorite ever and it seems most theme park discussers pick either dark rides or thrill rides and ignore everything else
The framing device for this video is great. Can’t wait to see this channel grow into one of the great niche theme park channels.
Thank you, that's the dream!!
Dude I’m in love with your content. This is exactly what I need in my life
Yay, glad you like it!!
I thought he would drop the camp house party bit after the opening but he just… kept going
Can’t decide if I love it or it’s triggering my fight or flight
GREAT video, I’m shocked that you don’t have more subscribers. Hoping for a video about the Saw ride from you soon!
Thank you! Saw video is on the way soon...
I've been to Forks, for training at a gas station. It's remote and unromantic. So it weirds me out to no end that there is a "replica" of Forks in China, and that it's a themed romantic hotspot.
Just went on a trip where my group binged all 5 of the Twilight movies
The algorithm is listening lol
Honestly really interested in your other content so you've gained a new subscriber!
Loving your content! Keep it coming.
IKR so glad poseidon pointed this guy out to his subs. S tier content hope he gets the attention he deserves someday.
Thank you! It's just great to have an audience at all at this point 🤠
babe wake up there’s a new theme park essay channel
“Due to a series of events” hearing a movie being described that way *really* got me.
now we need a spoof of the park built around Vampires Suck, the parody of Twilight lmao. Please take my sub #300
I totally forgot that film existed ahahahaha
Thank you for being no. 300!!
This was fascinating! I cannot believe you don't have more subs, can't wait for more content!
Thank you, more on the way soon(ish)!!
I lost it at “ twilight water “ 😭
Honestly I think this might be the solution to the dying malls thing, people don’t want to go to the mall anymore so why don’t we build indoor theme parks that people can go to any weekend. I’d definitely ride the Twilight ride once a month
I can’t believe you’re such a small creator without many videos but with such amazing skills ! I am so grateful for your captions! Even though I have a fear of videos of the inside of dark ride attractions, (it’s definitely a very odd phobia,) I couldn’t look away for the entire video! Amazing work, you earned a new subscriber!
Dude i love your channel... You don't have enough subs for the quality of the content you put out!!
Thank you! I think I just need to up the quantity a bit as people seem to like what I've done so far 😁
I’m ill with the flu right now and so appreciate stumbling on your channel in this feverish haze because even though I feel sick as hell I am fully enthralled with the concept of a Twilightland, and can’t wait to watch the Hunger Games video next ❤ Thanks for entertaining content!
I love the idea of this channel actually being what it’s call. Just a guy at a party rambling about an off topic thing that is interesting to him and if it’s interesting to you then you stay to let him finish. If not, you walk off. As someone who’s very neurodivergent, I’m finishing it and watching all the other videos LMAO
Edit: also imagine if they ever had to sell those bikes and replace them and buying one to play biking simulators like how people play truck simulators with the car pedals and wheel would be cool af
When it comes to the kissing at the end idk why they didn't do a mirror like Bella dreams in eclipse. You easily could have used it as inspiration and had you approach eddy boy and then the ride turns towards the mirror and its Edward and Bella. Like you're looking at yourself with him. But thats a small critique
this channel is gonna blow up REAL soon
🤞
This is my first video on your channel, and it was super engaging and informative! The way you engage the viewer by asking questions actually made me feel like responding to my phone at times lol!
I had no idea this place existed so thank you for making this video
I went to this theme park a few years ago during the pandemic. My older brother actually worked on the park as engineer for the ticketing system. So we got the tickets for free. There were no crowds at all. Only me and my boyfriend, we were the only guests in the park. (The park is officially open at the time , just nobody heard about it so it’s empty, so they handed out a lot of free tickets hoping to bring some attention) It was a great experience, but kinda boring. the employees are super friendly and performers did a really good job just dancing and singing for us.
i stg the algorithm is not missing today.
this whole party bit is a clever way to twist the typical youtube commentary format, awesome work & research here!
Thank you, I'm glad the algorithm brought you here!!
As a "watcher of media analysis that analyzes media I have never seen and have no intention of seeing," I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Saw ride
It's on the way soon(ish)....
@Mike From The Party love the video btw, I'm a new sub!
@@athenaryals3273 thank you!!
Great video! Love how much research you did. I used to love twilight and I still have a soft spot for it. I was actually in the theaters for breaking dawn part II. Having read the books, in which Alice's vision with everyone dying wasn't included, I figured out it must be a vision because I thought they probably wouldn't let the movie end that much different from the book. The reactions of everyone around me were golden though, true outrage. Interesting they chose to include that in the Bella's journey ride.
Somehow you had me hooked from the first minute. Great job!
Thank you! I'm sure it was hilarious to experience that with a crowd for the first time, just watching the videos online of the reaction made me crack up
So interesting to hear about the system for the vr!! When I was in universal Japan they had a similar system on the Mario kart ride where your vr connects to something you put on beforehand, so the award was clearly justified!
The fact Bellas journey is a Twilight version of Gangsta Granny at Alton Towers is HILARIOUS. But more importantly, I too wish to know more on the lore implications of the ride. This is DEEP CUT Twilight lore.
You can join mine and Ian's crew! Sadly I have not got to expeirence Gangsta Granny yet as my friends refused to queue an hour 😭😭
@@MikeFromTheParty I work at Towers and one of the VERY few perks is free tickets so I managed to bag off peak tickets. It broke down while we were on it though, we got stuck in the fart smell bit 😂😂😭😭
I think Forks does have a bookstore. In the books Bella mentions going to port angeles because she needed to go to a speciality book store to get the vampire book.
This is my fault for not actually reading the books and just taking the opinions of the Tumblr Twihards I was following as fact! My apologies to the designers of the Twilight Theme Park land
I watch coaster and themepark videos allll the time and have for years...i am so glad i finally came across you!!!!!! You deserve way more subs!!! Great job! Also had no idea this existed lmao
Thank you! I'm glad you came across me too ☺️
you might think a virtual group kiss with Robert Pattinson is uncomfortable, i consider it a plane ticket to china
I'm also interested in that gods of Egypt ride- who the hell gave enough of a shit about that movie to greenlight THAT?
OKAY I WAS ALREADY SOLD BUT YOU HAVE CAPTIONS AND THEYREGOOD AND THEY HAVE PUNCTUATION THANK YOU FROM A DEAF FAN THANK YOUUU
No worries at all!!
Awesome video! Really fun seeing the park footage and you had great insight/commentary
Thank you so much, Jace!
I have never read the Twilight books, nor have I seen the movies, but I know about it. Half of me is surprised that there's a theme park for the franchise,
the other half not surprised.
Here's a Twilight related story; when I
was a tween, my relatives sent me a blanket that had Edward on it. I myself wasn't interested in the gift, but my mom recognized it as being from Twilight and as she's a Christian, she got offended. She sent the blanket back and called up my relatives, demanding why did they send me that. My relatives said, "It's what the kids and stuff are into." Their response made my mom even angrier.
I wonder if one of the shops at this Twilight theme park has that particular blanket...
this video was so perfectly curated to two of my biggest obsessions, twilight and theme parks- i was so riveted the whole time lol
"Paramore"
That's it, I love it. Full stop. Visiting Friday.
Let me know if you find any good flight deals
Put a vampire host club in the theme park to recreate the romance aspect
This is really fun and well made. Thank you for the this.
Thank you for watching 😄
the algorithm putting this video in my feed is like me bumping into you and being cornered and just completely unable to figure out a way to extract myself from the conversation and you know what? good.
good.
instant subscribe for the gimmick and the strength of your infodumping, good Lord it's like I'm drinking from a firehose
hahahahaahahahaha
I forgot that this existed! Fascinating!
proud to be subscriber number 200, your content is better than some people with over a million
Thank you for being number 200!! What a cool milestone
im about halfway through this video and go to like it and i was shocked you didnt have a million subs omg! this video is so high quality. you deserve so much love on this
Thank you! I've only just started TH-cam so delighted with the amount of views so far 😊
"Maybe there's a gap in the market" - for vampire and werewolf escorts that walk around with you and pretend to be your supernatural boyfriend? Yes, please.
im so glad youtube recommended your channel to me. best new content creator ive found in years
I am genuinely surprised you don't have more subs, this video was great!! I hope you grow quickly!
Thank you so much, it's already grown a lot in the last few weeks!!
“It doesn’t have any visual representation of Alice’s vision” as he shows Alice putting her hand on the Vultory and clearly showing it was a vision 😂
