You can tell that this guy really has a lot of love for the Haunted Mansion and it makes this tour really enjoyable. :)
I'm liking this "behind the scenes" series
I think it's a bit boring. Like a cheap dark ride filled with defunct rides and things you find at a common Halloween store. I give it a solid C+ overall
@@slashismyhommie8182 like you could do better
Same :)
That guy is so passionate about his haunted house. Absolutely fantastic to hear all the little details inside such a ride.
I got REALLY excited when I saw this video, and then realized my interests are very specialized. Absolutely loving these dark ride walkthroughs, a severely overlooked artform worthy of appreciation.
Slothy Vlogs has a great UK fun fair ghost train build video. Worth checking out.
@@SANITIZEDINC Thanks for the recommendation, that was pretty good, and it looks like they've got quite a few ghost train videos to enjoy.
Knoebel's is one of the best places to go to in PA
What a delight. Your guide is so enthusiastic. You can feel the love for the history and legacy of this neat-o ride.
This for me was like a warm hug 🤗. As a kid every (EVERY) Summer was spent at Knoebeles Grove. I've always loved the Haunted Mansion with the exception of that dang horn ( every freaking time lol).
Thank you so much for getting a behind the scenes look of this. I live in KY but my heart is in Knoebeles.
I love how in one breath he keeps up the kayfabe of the ride and with the other says things like "Its a tissue paper of lies" and explains the props. Great video! That guy loves his work!
I went to Knoebles for the first time, earlier this month. Because of your endorsement, I rode the Haunted Mansion straight away. It did not disappoint. I found REAL terror on the Twister roller coaster.
I can't get enough of the behind the scenes! Thank you for getting out there to see what we can't!
Cool of Knoebels to hook our boy Carpetbagger up with behind the scenes.. That is a great park. He did a great job of explaining everything in the Haunted House. Another great video .
Woohoo! What a nice late night surprise! Thank you carpetbagger! :)
She is right I saw it late last night too!
This haunted house bring back so many memories. I live 30 min from Knoebels we go multiple times a year. Wish I would’ve known you were there I would’ve came to get your autograph!
I would love to see a behind-the-scenes of The Black Diamond as well, if ever possible!
Man that has to be the most genuine and realistic scream ever @ 26:49. LOL
That truck horn and lights can give you a heart attack. I know it scared me watching it.
I'm impressed with how effective that effect was, for being so simple.
I've ridden this I don't know how many times and the horn and headlights still startles me!
That was great to see the behind-the-scenes look at these old-time dark rides. Compressed air the Carpetbagger's one weakness.
That was super cool! Loved seeing the mechanics behind the animated props.
Clicked straight as I saw this. Keep up the good work. Loving the vids
The tour guide loves his haunted house, and so do we. What a fascinating behind the scenes look at a nostalgic favorite. Thanks for making this video that we can enjoy again and again. Got a great big smile on my face the whole way through. Only 12 when I first rode it, but at 58, I still can't get enough. You can tell how much passion went into this creation.
It's up early. Stream and a new video. Awesome.
I love the way the bright lights flashed for just a moment on the animatronics. Actually made it a lot scarier!
Lots of new things since my last visit. I miss the glow in the dark skull room and I wasn’t sure about some of the other changes, but in the dark, everything comes together very nicely. Still the best dark ride out there. Thank you for taking us along for your tour.
Knoebels' is one of my favorite places in the world and I always talk about it when people talk about incredible amusement parks. This is the place of my childhood and I still go well into my adult years. The haunted mansion is the only spooky ride I can do and it's such a treat! Thank you for this incredible behind the scenes look of a treasured favorite!!
Awesome video! Makes me wanna go to PA! I love seeing these older parks. Thanks!
Even though I didn't grow up with Dark Rides; They definitely have their charms and I can appreciate the craftsmanship and all the fun that goes into them, I want to ride them now!
Also I can’t believe you got a little private tour with the lights on! That’s crazy but so cool!
lights-on walkthroughs are the best, love 'em
The guide that took you thru the Haunted Mansion was very interesting n drolly humourous commentator!! Very cool to see the behind the scenes workings of the rides!!! Attaboy, Carpetbagger!!!!
Jake: “I hate Rollercoasters.”
Minutes later: proceeds to ride the entire Flying Turns bobsled coaster 😂
i hate rollercoasters also. Flying turns is different feeling and does not hurt my chest
You have no idea how excited I was to see the title of this video Knoebels as one of my absolute favorite favorite Amusement parks I’ve been going since 2000 in the haunted mansion is one of my favorite rides
I love Knobles. Haven't been there since I was a kid but the haunted house still stands out in my mind. can't wait to go back!
i love behind the scenes stuff, very fun. these things take me back an old carnival ride of questionable safety and dubious maintenance and craftsmanship regardless of the ingenuity required to keep it simple, where the dark is not only used for effect, but also to hide how, well, cheap everything really is when the lights are switched on.
this one looks just like a blast with layers of history piled on making it a real rare treasure. it's charming and reminds me of a bygone era. well, at least computers are good for *something*....
This content just gets better and better.
Your tour guide was fantastic with in information. Thank you.
Wonderful video! I grew up in SE PA and absolutely LOVED going to Knoebels every summer. We would camp in their campground, frolic in that glorious pool by day, and hit the amusement park in the evening. And some of the most helpful and friendly staff anywhere; glad to see the tradition is going strong.
I love the tombstone with the name Tracy on it... Paying homage to Bill Tracy, the Great Dark Ride artist.
He was the man!
I live 15min from here and it's such a great quality amusement park
I was waiting all day for a carpetbagger video!
So much detail one probably never notices. I like these behind the scene videos👍
Awesome video Bagger! Knoebels is the best and such Americana. Can’t wait for when you finally are able to ride Flying Turns as it lives up to the hype. In the meantime, enjoy old school rides like the Whipper and the bumper cars
I love almost all the places you bring us but my favorites will forever be the dark rides. Yay! Thanks Jacob! 🤗
Oh man the truck, always seems like there's more there. The amount of love that goes into this thing, and all the rides at Knoebels, is far beyond any sort of expectations, one of the best places in the world
That was great getting so much behind the scenes footage :)
Behind the scenes coaster tour! I love it man! Thanks for sharing.
Having worked attractions at Disney, I really enjoyed this. The details are really amazing
I love this. You can definitely tell that the care taker really LOVES his job. 🙂
Happy to see they repurposed a few old props from the old mill darkride from kennywood. Love old school stuff like that 😎👍
My husband and I love Knoebels Haunted Mansion!!! Thanks so much for taking us along!!!!
The cockroach being experimented on with shock therapy made me lose it XD I love the energy the caretaker has, and I'm glad he takes so much pride and joy in his job!
The dungeon is so detailed, i knew it was one if the more full rooms on the ride but i never realized how much there is in there.
I really, really enjoyed this. Thanks, Jacob and the guys who allowed him to film backstage!
I'm having my wedding reception there next year!
The haunted ride reminds me of the one in Ed Wood. I love it!
Thanks for the behind the scene visit to the mansion, Jacob! I used to love that mansion ride when I was young (I remember when it had the corridor of floating skulls with the Halloween music playing). The host did a great job showing all of the cool props.
Awesome video. I love walk throughs. You get to see so much work that is put into dark rides. Thank you..Stay safe and stay blessed
HEY JACOB What's Up.. Well that is Pretty Awesome Seeing the Inner Workings of the Haunted Mansion dark Ride you don't realize how much work and upkeep someplace like That entails and roller coaster is the same thing the work that it takes to keep it going is insane great job and see you next adventure
Jacob, these cehind the scenes/dark ride videos are the best thing on youtube!! Thank you from London , England!!!!!

Very well made ride. I think it’s the best dark ride art work I’ve seen.
So excited to be watching this as someone who lives in NEPA and has been there many times every year. It is really fun during fall also! The prices are amazing, the workers are very pleasant and it is in a beautiful area.
What a fantastic video you did. Thank you!!
Getting the VIP treatment .. Very nice jacob
Knoebels Haunted Mansion has to be one of the greatest dark rides ever!!!
Fantastic video Jake!! It was very nice of the folks at the park to let us see the 'behind peaks'.
What they also do is a behind the scenes tours for folks when they have an auction, where the highest bidders get a tour of the Haunted Mansion & the money raised goes to a wonderful children's organization to help out children. They've been doing that for years.
How k👀l is that !?!
Been there all my life and thank you for the inside information. Never knew that.
Another 💯🔥video! Awesome behind the scenes! Tour guides were very cool! Keep up the great work Jacob!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! What a great Old School amusement park. So is Waldemeer's
Behind the scenes?! You spoil us
Loving this video! Great work!!!! Love behind the scenes videos!
It was so cool seeing the inside of the Haunted Mansion and the the ride. It must be so much fun putting this together. Too bad about the Roller Coaster it must like riding a bobsleigh Something for you to come back for Jacob and another ride in the Haunted Mansion. Thanks
This is just wonderful. Thank you!
Behind the scenes are great! Thanks for showing us!!
grew up going to Knoebels, always preferred it over Disney. The Haunted Mansion at Knobels was always my favorite.
G R E A T !!! Thanks so much. Nice to listen to someone who loves their job.
Love it! So old school and so vintage! Gonna have to get you behind the scenes at some of our haunts!
I love the part with the big Lorry, I seen a similar video where it uses a Railroad Crossing

Please more BTS!!!!! So much fun
Thanks for uploading this, I am in love with this ride and go multiple times each year just to ride it
Excellent episode! Both of those rides are amazing, love the insider views.
This was a neat tour .thank you ❤️
I went to Knoeble's as a kid in the 80's. The only thing I remember about the trip was the Haunted Mansion. I rode it with my aunt and we loved it! I'm planning to take my kid there this year. I hope Flying Turns is open then. I've want to ride that for a long time.
LOVE Knobels! We use to go here for YEARS when I was a kid.
The Haunted Mansion. I still miss the hanging skull room. It was just a room filled with glowing skulls that moved up and down. It was my favorite part of the ride. A memory from my childhood is before you got on the ride there was a penny stuck in the floor that was a gag. If you tried to pick up the penny you couldn't. The person would laugh at you for trying to pick it up! LOL 😆
Okay Jacob go off! 🙌 Truly amazing stuff!
What a fun and interesting video!
Hi There,
Wow, absolutely amazing! So glad I caught your video in my TH-cam recommendations. Lifelong fan of the Haunted Mansion. How did you get such an exclusive tour?
Regards,
Ryan
22:58 the tiger is actually cute 😊
Thank you, we really enjoy your behind the scenes videos
Hey thank you for this. Very enjoyable
this is fascinating thanks so much for sharing this with us
Loved seeing the dark ride behind the scenes!! So fascinating!
THE COCKROACH !!!!!! this is wicked awesome omg. I love how the space is so silly and kitschy with the lights on and legitimately scary with darkness, motion and sound. Also the flying turns ride is soooo beautiful!! The wood together is absolutely gorgeous!!
You're hilarious! I love how you appreciate the humbug and history of it all.
I’ve been going there since I was a kid it’s so cool to see one of my favorite TH-camrs there!
I rode the haunted mansion ride once in the late 90s as a kid with my dad i was scared out of my mind. The ONLY 2 things i actually remember seeing are the piano player and Ruth!
They've added A LOT to the ride since then! Some things are updated versions of the original gags and others have completely changed. I like how they keep it fresh.
