Inside terrible Glasgow ‘Willy Wonka’ experience that saw police called

- This is scene angry parents were confronted with after paying £35 each for 'optical marvels’ at a Willy Wonka experience in Glasgow, only to be met with a half-empty warehouse, cheap props and a gift of two jelly beans each for their children. The event ended up causing such outrage that police were called. House of Illuminati, which organised the two-day event, abruptly cancelled it after just a few hours and has promised all attendees a full refund, saying they realised the event was a ‘disappointment’.

I feel horrible for the actors who were dragged into this
It must have been awful for them , so awkward
I know, they are victims and probably bore the wrath of the attendee parents livid at how jank this all was, and they have to get their faces plastered all over the inter webs too.
They'd have had the horrible choice of either letting their spirits drop like the Oompa Lumpa girl, so their faces and body languages matched the warehouse helping to crash the event, or to try and sell it like Willy Wonka, and try and deliver some entertainment, but which just frames the awkwardness of the whole event and makes him look like a salesman for it even though he is not and would never choose to be.
I bet someone kept telling them, “Don’t worry, it’s going to look great when it opens.”
I bet someone kept telling them, “Don’t worry, it’s going to look great when it opens.”
My favorite part of this is that the actors could tell they were on a sinking ship, but they still did their absolute best for the sake of the children.
What-
Except the unknown. Man was living in the walls
Won't somebody please THINK OF THE ACTORS!? 😱😂
@@unnamedpodcast603well yeah? they're just regular people that got roped into doing this
@@ogvektor They got paid for playing make believe. They'll be fine 😅
The actors were the best part of this. They did so well considering what must have been going through their minds. I wish them all the best.
And the Oompa Loompa looks nice, I would
The Willy Wonka guy and The Unknown guy actually look really really handsome as well, apparently the Oompa Loompas still haven't gotten paid yet
@@thebrutaltruth460 I don't think anyone has been paid at all, despite there being over £29,000 in revenue from ticket sales.
@@nazomius7033whilst in the costume ?🤔
I would have died of embarrassment if I was one of them
Any child that glances into The Unknown's mirror gets instantly trapped in their alternate mirror world where the Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience continues on for all eternity.
LMAO IM CRYING 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s the Willy Wonka backrooms
Kamen rider Ryuki reference😱😱🤯🤯
Brilliant
aka hell
When she poured two jelly beans into the kid's hand, I felt that.
omg so sad, both for the kid and for her
Actually, the actros were told only to give ONE jelly bean, so they were trying to make it at least a microbe better
The American government after you pay taxes be like:
While chewing the beans on her own! 😂
That was too funny 🤣
The whole thing was literally Mr.Krabs’ Krabby Land in real life
except with more shadowy presences living behind mirrors
You promised those kids a Willy Wonka experience, but all I saw out their was…scammy the scammer
It reminded of a Krusty the Clown kind of scam 😂
@@SoonGonehey at least Krusty apologised to the kids for the Kamp Krusty scam and took them on a trip to Mexico. I don’t see Billy Coulld driving up the the kids houses offering them all a trip to Benedorm anytime soon
@@mrcritical6751 HEY HEY 🤡
The actor playing Willy was actually a hero. He tried his hardest to make it fun for the kids while he knew what an absolute disaster the whole thing was
To be fair, the guy who played Wonka did pretty well despite the obvious shortcomings of the event. I feel for the actors who had to do this.
He was acting for his life
Lipstick on a pig.
He could have at least put on a damn wig.. Wonka wasn't shaved
@@polydipsiacbro even made a statement after this event. He didn't even want to be Wonka 😭
@@etholus1000 his exact statement is even better it was something along the words of who the hell looks at me and thinks willy wonka, i thought i would of been an oompa loompa
The Unknown better be a canon character now.
There a video game creature label as "The Unknown" if that make's you feel better.
@@letsepicsonicblastabgaming are you talking about the pokemon?
@@OldUncleJacob No I was talking about the video game dead by daylight, sorry should of clarify it.
@@letsepicsonicblastabgaming all g

“Now give me a nice big reaction for the camera!”
(distant baby crying)
Hahahaha
💀
This is the world of 2024: disappointing, overpriced & rage inducing.
fyre festival for kids
Late stage capitalism
I hate the elite so much
UK is a failed state
This isn't a new thing.
To make up for this the organisers are giving free tickets to their other Glasgow attraction Disnaeland.
😅😅
And meet wilt dosny in peerson
With a space mountain coaster held together with duct tape, cylinder blocks, & cotter pins, just like the coaster at your local carnival.
That’s not a rat infestation, it’s mookey mouse. Don’t ask why there are so many of him.
What's the difference between Bing Crosby and Walt Disney? Bing sings,...............and Walt Disney.
Feel bad for the wonka actor he was putting in the effort
@@JoeyXSmithno he wasn't he was just a guy they hired
@@JoeyXSmithno he wasn’t
what are you on about?@@barsbay7598
have you seen the actors being interviewed? They are saying it was the most surreal thing they've ever worked on. and the script for Willy Wonka was all written in AI
Not gonna lie. They have my respect. The guy said they were called last minutes and even with this they tried to save the kids day.
Could the whole thing have been created by AI like Eagle Eye? Like an actual accidental crowd source
Talk about the definition of laziness from whoever was responsible for the event. And yet these actors still put up with it, trying to do the impossible - make it work. Mad respect for them.
The apology the director wrote was also AI
@@Mike14264makes it worse that the organiser was there, knew he was gonna get beaten up for this so he hired two bouncers to protect him from getting Glasgow kisses from the parents
You have to give props to the best actors there; the parents. Having to feign enjoyment for their kids earns them all an Oscar.
They had props. Did you not see the chocolate river?
@@SuperKripkethe willi dicka experiene
@@user-cw1fv1xk2g who up wonking they willy rn
Poor guy paying Wonka is doing his best to hold the entire thing together and bring some form of joy to the kids. Well done sir!
He was the hero trying holding the like in such time
Totally.
I meant to say “poor guy *playing Wonka” 🙃
The guy playing Wonka is great tbh. He is trying his best to entertain the kids in a very embarrassing situation.
The idea of ‘the unknown’ is easily the most interesting part for me. I know it’s the idea of an AI talking nonsense but… wow. A mysterious entity living in the walls with a mirror taking you to another dimension in a kids experience! If the whole thing was actually amazing and well executed and they pulled the unknown into it, could create nightmare fuel for the kids. Why?
if wonka got an 80s sequel i guarantee the unknown would have made an appearance in the twelve minute hell tunnel scene
We know who lacks the integrity of a father figure here.
Your sissiness is absurd even to me, a femboy. They need to learn.
The AI hates kids
It created a nightmare fuel for the kids already
If I was the actor playing wonka id be saying to every family ‘you really should dispute this with your credit card’
Maybe, but then again he's probably part of the scam.
@@LordDavid04nope he definitely wasn't he's also not been paid.
A s.75 credit card claim wouldn't work here, as the ticket's were below £100. Chargeback all the way - and that applies to debit cards too.
It looks like every time a school throws a fair in elementary school
Edit- listen I get it, you went to better schools 😭🎒
Don't insult elementary school fairs!
oh NO, elementary school fair are much better than this.
Years ago my elementary school had a annual field day that was usually the last day of school for most kids and had a bunch of activities to do outside and they were 10x better than what I saw in this video
bro even elementary schools do better than this 😭
no not the posh people in the UA-cam comments
You gotta give it up to the one guy playing Wonka. With the hand he was dealt with, he was still giving it his absolute all.
You promised these children Willy Wonka, but all I saw out there was....😢
CHEAPY THE CHEAPSKATE!
Hey I ain't cheap...
🍅
Now take this tomato back to the kitchen before it spoils...
Haha 😂😂😂
I've heard of stingy Scotsmen, but this is ridiculous.
Putting the”Willy”
I screamed when the oompa loompa started handing a jelly bean to each child
No you didn’t
You stayed dead silent quit being dramatic
Jelly beans aren’t even expensive, idk how they managed to get to a situation where they’re rationing candy ffs
It’s a jelly bean 💀
This is like a living example of politician promises versus what they actually deliver.
👏👏👏🤣😂
Politicians don't care, they've been given a pay rise and getting about £91,000 a year for ruining the country....
Nailed it!
Even the kids knew this was a scam
I feel so bad of the guy playing Wonka. He was hired last minute, and as an actor myself it’s really disappointing to be cast in something misleading like this and then be expected to try and make it work 😢
I feel so bad for the people who paid for this
they got a refund don't worry XD
Serves them right for paying without doing any research
The adds showed nothing but AI images and no look at the actual attraction
@@austinharvey7644Ah yes, defend greedy corporations, not the consumer getting ripped off.
I feel so bad for the people who worked there.
@@RedOctober46 dont be a dummy
The parents made the mistake. This was NOT an event for sober children. This was an event for drunk adults. 7, 8 pints I'd have thought this was Space Mountain.
Space mountain at disney world literally has the whole economy as a budget compared to the willy wonka experience
best glasgow tourist experience
Proves why Edinburgh is better
The unknown devoured 👁👄👁
Sis sprinkled 2 jellybeans into his hands😭😭😭I been crying laughing about this all day
Isnt her fault really the guy who organized this is the one to blame
I read an article from the actor who played Wonka that they were to give the children just 1 jellybean each and a quarter of a small plastic cup of lemonade.
Imagine she gave 3 then have to take 1 back 😂😂
This is the worst scam ever pulled since the episode of Ed Eddy N Eddy where Jimmy enters the so called “Smileyville” only to end up in the dirty alleyway
Underrated and utterly heart wrenching comment
even the Eds have standards, and that's saying a lot lol.
True 😂 also since Homer made "Homerland" with an admission of $50
@@MadnessDoeHomerland was just a fantasy he had though.
@@Mario87456 I forgot that 🤣
A kid rlly said “That’s where the guy died 😀”
shoutout to the actors.. they prob knew they werent getting paid and went down with the ship doing the best they can!
Sometimes it's just instinct survival
I wish I was there for the meme alone
lol
this was actually my experience of coming to the uk for a better life
HA ! 😂
🤣
🤣
🤣
You should go home then
"I give you...Krabby Land!"
Bless that mum trying to make it seem great for her kids ❤
Those actors were the MVP. You can tell theyre trying their best..
This had to have been some sort of ironic art installation experiment. There's no way they'd do something this bizarre if it wasn't on purpose
I feel so bad for the actors in this
I laughed at the oompaloompa giving out the ration of 2 jelly beans out of a test tube like they're pills or something
WW2 Willy Wonka
I love how the actors did their best to make the place less disappointing for the children. Thank you to those who did the same and make kids feel happy even when the place looks so under budget.
Hope they learn their lesson with AI
AI….Awful, indeed.
@@dcsmooth AIs acronym
I dont think so. Its just gonna get worse.
AI wasn't the problem. The use of AI artwork was just another symptom of the organizer's laziness and sleaziness; but the AI didn't choose to make the real event such a pathetic experience or charge 35 pounds for the entrance.
"what is that?" "what was that?" "why did they do that?" 😂😂😂😂
The actors did their absolute best despite being screwed over too.
So much respect for the actors, they did their best to add charm and flair to a mess and it shows here… I can only fathom what it must be like being plastered all over the media and memes too. Hope they’re coping ok with the madness.
I'm reminded of the fair in Father Ted, where one ride was going up a few feet in a forklift 🤣
'This is scene angry parents were confronted with' - Top notch grammar in top notch journalism
It’s fitting for the AI generated script.
I wouldn't expect anything better from this source. I only came for the video.
The Scots really know how to put on a show.
😅 we sure do
Have some Scotch
When asked for comment, the real Willy Wonka was quoted as saying “If you have any questions, dial information… thank you for calling!”
Nothing will ever beat the "Tunnel Of Goats" on Craggy Island...🐐🐐🐐
Spiderbaby perhaps)))
All credit to the actors who were really trying their best under the circumstances.
willy wonka actor carried this event on his back
Welcome to the double-minded mirror of “The Unknown!” 🤣
This is such a British thing to happen 😂
Someone tag Mr.Beast. Maybe he can find these kids and show them a real Wonka Factory. He did an amazing job recreating it.
this should be illegal wtf
Well... It is.
And it's illegal
This whole event is basically Dashcon for kids
I couldn't stop laughing, who is this unknown guy? why put him there? 😂😂😂
It's so random it's funny
the organizers used ai for pretty much everything as far as im aware, the advertisement images were ai generated, the scripting for the actors was ai, apparently they put out an apology that was also made with ai, its freaky
I haven’t laughed this hard in a while oh man 😂
amen
At this rate with things like ai generated video and images, one day you won’t even be able to tell what’s real and what’s a scam. This just makes me sad
America: DashCon 2014
UK: Hold my Guinness Pint, Yankees!
I’m glad they didn’t have a chocolate river in sewer line. 😂
The Shawshank Factory 😂
Pause somewhere between 0:07 - 0:09 and you can see the kid being scared. Open mouthed and shocked.
Come with me, and you'll be in a world of pure disappointment 🎵🎼
is „arabian nights“ playing in the background?😂😭
Cannot wait for the internet historian video on this in about a year.
the chocolate river 😂😂😂😂😂
Two frikken jelly beans
That poor Oompa Loompa just holding it all together.
i like in the final clip, you can tell the parents appreciate the willy wonka guy is putting more effort in than the organiser and trying to give the children a happy experience
Krabby Land in real life! 😂
This is something Eddy would come up with to Scam the neighborhood kids out of 25 cents
Actually, I've known "The Unknown" for years, and yes, they have issues.
Kids will probably be traumatized every time they’re around a mirror now. Going to think there is some unknown man in the walls watching.
If the 2 jelly beans were acid tabs or ecstasy pills, this could have been a wonderful, fun, life changing experience.
Mrbeast built a better wonka experience than this garbage
Isn't he like a multi-millionaire?
No. He's not. All that money goes in to making his content and so forth.@tomdomagalski3679
This is the gift that just keeps on giving
"This place reminds me of Santa's Workshop! Except it smells like mushrooms and everyone looks like they want to hurt me." -Buddy the elf
At least the actors tried their very best.
Even that one polar express pajama movie party i went to as a kindergartener was better than this. And they actually served hot chocolate during the chocolate scene
Theres something deep about the state of society in this, I just can't be bothered to work it out
Why did she say "why did they do that?" increasing her child's fear rather than dismissing the character to the child as some nonsense.
OMG that is hilarious. Willy Wonka's Fyre Festival.
0:57 💀💀💀💀💀💀imagination goes a long way i guess
I hope everyone was kind to the actors, they seem like they were really doing their best under the circumstances.
Gotta respect the actors for still giving it 100% for the kids even though they knew the whole thing was a disaster
🎶 can't you see your in a world of pure imagination 🎶 wonky land the sequel 😎
Lol! It's so akward and painful! I feel so bad for the children, but I just don't understand how all those adults were so easily fooled liked that. One glance at the advertising alone should've been enough of a heads up for anyone if they paid any attention. The AI generated nonsensical wording and art used in place of actual real photography would've been a dead giveaway that something was up.
2:26 And that's just so sad, running out of dried marshmallows to go with that quarter cup of lemonade and single jellybean!
This makes Dashcon look like Gamescom.
The Oompa Loompa Lord does not approve…
This is the Fyre Festival equivalent of an experience! Where are the cheese sandwiches?!
They were the 2 jellybeans this time.
😂😂😂 This was the funniest story I have heard in a long time. I almost crapped myself. If I had been in Glasgow, I would have had to have gone just for grins and giggles. I know you want to leave a like on my comment. So, do it already. 🤣🤣🤣
is this event still in operation? wanna get two tickets...
That Willy Wonka actor actually seems like a nice guy, I feel bad for everyone that was dragged into this trainwreck.
I would’ve been more sad for my parents for feeling like they got duped than disappointed.
I love the overly UN-enthusiastic "Look, its a chocolate river...!" And the British accent makes it funnier (and im British so i can speak from experience)
This is to Wonka lore what Velma is to Scooby Doo.
I love how the chocolate bar they have a photo next to just says that and not even “Wonka” 😭😭
