Tales of the Okefenokee Audio Mix: Monster Mansion Edition (POV Courtesy of Theme Park Archive)

- I made this video to clear up any confusion as to where exactly the scenes in Tales of the Okefenokee were situated in terms of their corresponding locations in Monster Plantation/Monster Mansion. Since the concrete boat trough has remained virtually unaltered for its entire 53-year lifespan, pinpointing the locations of the Krofft-era Okee scenes isn't exactly a difficult task, but still something I know would be of some help to a lot of people who happen to be interested in the old ride.
For further clarification, have a look at this floor plan drawn by Tim Hollis: jumpshare.com/...

Hold up fellas, I made a mistake. At 2:09, the caption incorrectly reads that the entrance to the arsenal cave was to the left of the crows, which would imply that the crows were on the right side of the trough. The crows were actually seen to the left side of the trough for each of their three appearances. I knew I would end up noticing some kind of stupid "left/right" wording mistake after it was too late.
I thought you meant that the crows were where the chili stand is and the cave started where the pie eating contest is. That would still be to the left of the figures since, from their prospective, the cave mouth is on their left (wing) hand side.
Just clearing things up so nobody gets confused and asks about it.
@@GiantSquid-ie4gn I don't know what exactly you mean by that, but here's the link to my archive of rare Okefenokee photos on Jumpshare, which I assume is what you want: jumpshare.com/b/6MzS8DeL80qN4TREpyfq
@@GiantSquid-ie4gn I don't have anything planned at the moment. If any new footage ever surfaces, I'll upload it here, but right now there's not really anything to post.
Oh
the roblox recreation of the ride really helped with mapping it out in my head
Me too
There's a recreation of okefenokee on Roblox??? Or is it Monster mansion? Either way, that's AWESOME!
@@pissant959 its definately Okefenokee. i created a Roblox account specifically to play it. its FANTASTIC!
Interesting fact: there is a painting in the monster Mansion that is a reference to Tales of the Okefenokee.
where
@@plant5875 in the very first scene with Mizzy Scarlet (the room with the orange and white stripes)
I saw the painting, it’s so sweet
I'm so glad that you made this! I didn't know so many of the facts in this video. This kind of makes me want Okefenokee back. The ride was "Monster Plantation" before I was even born.
Hi! First off, thank you so much for preserving the history of the ride. I know a lot of others have contributed greatly, but you deserve a lot of credit for making all this media accessible. So thank you!
I was wondering of you still monitor this channel. I am working on a video about these attractions (Okee & Monster) and wanted to get your formal permission to use some of this media and information. I will give credit to you, Tim, and others for the work you've done saving this ride's history. Thank you.
Tales of the Okefenokee is 100% public domain as far as I'm concerned, so you certainly don't need my permission to use most of the content on my channel. If anyone needs to be credited, it would be Tim Hollis and Skip Elsheimer (the guy who sent me the eight-minute sample reel).
@@okefenokee_rabbit Thank you so much for your response. I really appreciate your attitude, passion, and insight. Thank you for what you do.
@@StorybookAmusement You're welcome, my dude. I'm glad you appreciate the Okefenokee as much as I do.
Super great video. This is a very faithful take on the ride many of us (including myself) wish to have ridden. Good job!
It's been ages! Nice that you started to upload again!
Good Job!
Before I seen this video, I never knew the pond use in the"soaking in shame"scene still exist.
Looks good
Super Cappy Mario Hi!
Finally another video!
This was very informative! Great video
Thanks so much for this! I have been looking for a person to go to for information about this ride... so much history that is in this attraction. I would love to pick your brain on this attraction if you would like to chat at some point. my contact info is in the about section of our channel. We have been looking to dig into the past and present of this ride since we love it so much . See you in the Manson!
Tim Hollis would be the best guy to speak with about Okefenokee matters (there's actually an interview between him and Kevin Perjurer of Defunctland regarding the ride on TH-cam already), although I can answer any questions you have about it as best as I can. I was born in 2001, so obviously I never actually had the chance to ride the Okefenokee (I've never even been to SFOG, in fact, despite my fascination with its early history), although I wouldn't be surprised if I'm quite literally the most knowledgable person on the ride outside of anyone who's actually ridden it.
Amazing 😉
th-cam.com/video/qq618CqX3fY/w-d-xo.html I noticed that the gargoyle-looking monsters in the marsh are good reference points for scene transitions. The first one starts the Christmas Burrow scene and the second one lines up with the Mill Pond Frog scene towards the end.
Neat commentary!
I never knew there was a flashing neon light in the storm scene.
The lightning bolt prop was most likely a leftover from the '67 version, actually. I think you can even see it for a split second in the 1967 footage during the first shot of the boats travelling through the lift hill area. It's on the far-left of the screen and near the top, and I seriously doubt that it's just film grain because its location and shape are spot-on. Also, while you can't see the lightning bolt itself in the sample reel, you _can_ see what is obviously one its illuminated flashes lighting up the scene for a very brief moment.
I know this is an old comment, but I just wanted to share a little info about the lightning bolt. Speelunker's Cave had a similar effect, or at least I assume Okee's was similar. This video (th-cam.com/video/vYlkm3Rx7Bo/w-d-xo.html) of Spee Cave shows the light, which may be give you an idea of what the Okee lightning bolt *may* have looked like.
I cannot confirm whether the effects were identical. It's just my speculation that they were at least similar.
Love the audio mix! Is this accurate to the ride when it had its run, especially Save The Rabbit starting before the carrots, the near drowning out of Mr. Fox's laugh, the chanting of “BEWARE! BEWARE! GO BACK! GO BACK!” beginning a bit early, Soaking in Shame starting in the burrow, and Okefenokee Waltz starting at the frog pond sequence?
This mix is as accurate to the real thing as I could make it. There's a live audio recording of the ride on my channel that you can listen to for reference, and three more if you can manage to find them.
Can you give me the tapes with the voice
Tim Hollis specifically requested that I cut his voice out of the recordings before releasing them, so no.
There's a new video that covers both monster plantation and tales of the Okefenokee and it features some new photos of the 1975 overhaul and some new footage of the 1967 version of the attraction
I've already seen all the Okefenokee footage and photos used in that video, but thanks for letting me know.
@@okefenokee_rabbit your welcome
I attempted to do this once using your onride audio mix but it was too short so I had to make it start later in the ride. When i look at some of the videos. And saw where each scene was supposed to be it didn't match what was in the video. Thankfully this was made so now we know what It actually looks like.
Here is my video: th-cam.com/video/BzQWwHOdwsg/w-d-xo.html
The problem with trying to overlay a Monster Plantation POV with the audio of a regular Okee ride-through is that both rides are different lengths, despite sharing the same trough layout. The current of the water in Monster is considerably slower than it was in the Okefenokee, so Monster's boats naturally take longer to move through the attraction (five minutes compared to the Okee's four minutes). In order to make this video, I had to arrange a specialized Okefenokee audio mix from scratch in order for everything to match up correctly.
I never knew that. I thought it was the same. Never knew the ride length was different. But that is very interesting. In that case how much would a POV need to be sped up? 50%?
Out of curiosity (if this channel is even active anymore) what is your thoughts on the revamped speelunker cave ride at SFOT?
I've only seen a single ride-through, which was immediately after the ride opened, and unless they've changed it up since then, then I unfortunately can't hold the ride in very high regard.
It's mostly just a cheap, generic pirate-themed attraction with almost nothing remarkable going on, and when the Spee-Lunkers actually do appear, they look hideous and are portrayed in an incredibly campy manner that you would expect to see in some awful 1980s Saturday morning cartoon. It couldn't be further from the mysterious and surreal aura of the original 1960s Spees.
Just not good, all around. A real shame considering that I had fairly high hopes for the ride.
@@okefenokee_rabbit yea I do have to agree on that, the music that plays during the speelunker part of the ride was unnecessary, and the props and effects aren’t that good since this ride does actually go through some vandalism.
And while they did add some more effects to the speelunkers after the ride got flooded once again, the ride is still just another joke, and made with no quality to other modern six flags dark rides.
can u do a tale of the okeefanokee ride muic but only the dixie band because its my fav
Can you do a video like this for splash mountain where you put the music and dialogue from tales of the movie okefenokee in the similar scenes in splash mountain?
I personally don't care much about Splash Mountain, and also this channel is only for SFOG content. It shouldn't be too hard to make a mix like that yourself, however.
I would like to see a side-to-side comparison or something similar.
There's no full POV of the Okefenokee, unfortunately, so that's barely a possibility at the moment. The most suitable thing we have for use in a side-to-side comparison video is my recreated ride-through from September of last year, which wouldn't work well for a video like that, as only a few clips were actually filmed from the boat.
What did it show
Did it show the storm scene
@@GiantSquid-ie4gn There's a "second-person" shot of a boatful of kids riding through the storm scene in which you can make out the tilting tree, either one or both of the alligators along the bank, and a few flashes of lightning.
Is there any other animatronics or props still in existance besides the two frogs?
Presumably not; any other leftovers that may have made it past the ride's demolition almost certainly don't exist anymore, as nothing else as ever surfaced.
@@okefenokee_rabbit Oh. So its just the track, the one pond, and the two frogs. Interesting. Someone made a Roblox recreation of the ride by the way.
@@okefenokee_rabbit Are you Tim Hollis?
@@WesternOhioInterurbanHistory No, although I wouldn't be surprised if I quite literally hold the title for "person who knows the most about Tales of the Okefenokee out of anyone who never actually rode it".
You know what's annoying? That chicken clucking for help!
He is the loudest boi. So loud, in fact, that you can hear the scream for about a full minute in each of the 1972 recordings if you listen closely enough.
@@okefenokee_rabbit *BAWK HELP AAaAaAAaAaAaA-*
@@ottersstupidsafariofficial simply an iconic quote
Yes monster mansion had good animatronics but it doesn’t have the same charm as the okefenokee
I would say they have equal levels of charm, personally.
Do you hate that ride ? (monster mansion)
I think it's a pretty decent ride, although it could be much better in a few departments. I'm not attached to it or very interested in it like I am with the Okefenokee, though.
@@okefenokee_rabbit Oh ok so your dream is that they replace monster mansion by okefenokee , i would like that too because monster mansion kinda sucks to me , i prefer okefenokee too
@@Sigma1876 I don't exactly "dream" that Monster would be replaced by anything. I definitely think it would be neat if the ride actually _were_ replaced by some sort of spiritual successor to the Okefenokee, but Monster has been around for 39 years at this point (exactly three times the lifespan of the Okee), and I don't see much sense in removing a legacy attraction that doesn't appear to be waning in popularity.
