Jacob, I want you to know how much I appreciate your videos! I've lived in a wheelchair my whole life: Your videos can take me to so many places that I can never expect to visit, or could even if I was there. Thank you very much for your fun and entertaining comments and videos.
My parents took me here every year when I was a kid and I have so many wonderful memories of this place. But one of my favorite recent memories was going to the 21+ after hours event last year and watching an entire crowd of drunk adults sitting and watching this (16:02) in complete amazement.
Every morning I wake up and reach for my phone to watch the newest Carpet bagger adventurer ... mostly cuzz it takes my anxiety and depression and It makes it goes away For a wile ...ty Jacob be safe buddy
That part when the guy in the background said, “That’s the creepiest spider I’ve ever seen.” Agreed random guy, agreed! Thank you for sparking memories of my favorite theme park as a kid Jacob!
Dude...I remember going here ALL THE TIME when I was little! It's definitely changed, I can tell. Them singing "Good Time" by Owl City at the end was just epic.
@@Dr170 Depending on your age and when you last visited a lot. That Dino tour replaced the Slipshod Safari which itself was cut down to add a Splash battle attraction. The sea area was added in the early 2000s and expanded a couple times the Farm area after that. They have a wood Roller coaster Which was their last bid addition.
@@mrceagle the farm area was definitely there when i was a kid in the early 2000s. i went every year when i was like 2-8 years old and i'm 18 now. i don't remember the dinosaur thing or a "splash battle attraction" so those have to be fairly new.
When Disney Land began, my family was working in The Enchanted Forest, one Aunt in the castle, and the other in The Gingerbread House. It was a beautiful park,and on weekends I played there for hours. The man who owned it, had to let it go, he could no longer keep up with the maintenance. I in my older years fondly remember. It's wonderful to see some of these fairly tale parks are still in good condition.
This place reminds me of Efteling. An amusement park located in Denmark. Now that I know this place exists I’ll feel like I’m there when I go to Storyland.
How cool that its still open and looks so good. Lots to see and do! Great train. I laughed when a little girl yelled out "Faster!", as y'all were paddling the boat past the alligators. I have a short memory of tiny houses and story book figures, and it troubled me because I couldn't place it and I wondered if it was just a memory of a dream. Well, thanks to the internet I was about to research info about the amusement parks I'd visited when I was a kid, and I found it. The amusement park has been long gone, but various folks have kindly documented some info about the park and some have posted old pictures. I was pleased to learn its a memory from what was Storyland Park in Elk Grove (near Chicago).
This place and Santa's Village were always a must when we were up in the mountains. Dr. Geyser's raft ride is the best! It's too bad that Heritage doesn't exist next door anymore, that was a neat walk-thru experience. They've turned it into an aquarium now.
My family did the ride to Cinderella's castle in the pumpkin just a handful of times. It was cute, but it was a very long wait, which is why we didn't make a regular habit of doing that. We did visit Cinderella's castle, but most of the time, we'd just walk there.
Glad you made it back to New Hampshire! It's such a beautiful state especially during the fall with the changing colors! Thanks for giving us another quality video, you continue to inspire this small creator!
We loved Storyland and Santa’s Village. Too bad the new aquarium next door isn’t open yet. You chose a great time to visit. I bet the foliage was incredible!
@@crissytracy8517 The Aquarium acually opens NOVEMBER FORTH for anyone with a simple day pass. Season passholders are the ones who get to go to the attraction the first.
OH this place was my CHILDHOOD it's so nice to see it's still around.... i'd love to go back just for fun!! one of my favorite childhood photos is of me and my cousin hanging out of the pie!
Great place to go for little kids! I'm a little kid at heart, so I love these places. I love the little dinosaur ride and the Buccaneer Bay ride. Kind of like the Jungle Safari at Disney World, except pirate-themed. I also liked the pumpkin ride. You can ride to the castle like a proper princess. I love these little off-the-beaten places that nobody knows about. Jacob, your videos inspire me to go places. I want to go places like you do. I want to go to unique museums like you do. You go to some unique places. Well, thanks for sharing! Have a great day!
I think everyone who grew up in New England went to this park at least once. I have photos of myself in so many of those places, over 20+ years ago . Its so charming how things have not changed. Thank you for showing me my childhood :)
Went there way back in 1970 or 71 when I was about six or seven years old. Some of the stuff from back then is still there, like the clown sitting on the bench and the antique car ride.
I really loved this place! Never been to New Hampshire but I would love to take my granddaughters to see this place. Thank you for another great video! :)
Hope you'll make here someday! It's a beautiful state, especially up in the mountains. Story Land and Santa's Village were always a go-to when we were kids. :)
You would have loved Heritage NH, which was in the building that is now going to house an Aquarium. Haven't been to Storyland since my kids were small. Nice to see it is such good shape. Can't wait to see if you went to the Ghoullog at Cranmore while you were up there.
Its so surreal seeing this place on UA-cam... i grew up about 45 minutes from there in a small town called gorham and my sister actually played Cinderella when she was in high school at the park... soo many child hood memories there
Good golly, this video's really taken me back. Here's a little story with no payoff: A long, long while back, right next door to Storyland was this little stand-alone attraction called Heritage: New Hampshire. When I was little- like. Four or five, we went to Storyland for the day. I didn't remember a lot of it since I was little, but seeing this video really brought back a lot- like that sea serpent/dragon on the Bamboo Chutes! I was sure I remembered something like that. But, back to Heritage. About halfway through our Storyland trip, we decided to go to Heritage next door. I have the most vivid memories of that place nowadays. At the time, though, I remembered it vaguely until about five or six years later, I was in fifth grade, and we went on a field trip- as fifth graders do. Since I was so little the first time, my memories of it were pretty fuzzy, since I was way more taken with Storyland. But when I walked in with my tour group for school, I was hit with so much familiar stuff, and the whole walkthrough, I was planning to beg my folks to let us come back to Heritage again another time. This place was a walkthrough of New Hampshire history beginning in a mock English village and spanning from colonial times to the modern day. It was So. Cool. But, sadly, that field trip was the last I'd ever get to see of it. Turns out, they put on one final round of tours the day or two after they closed for my 5th grade class. I don't know what exactly happened to the exhibits, but I believe the building itself was turned into Storyland storage space. I've never been able to find a full video walkthrough of the place, if there was ever one made, and it really sucks to know that's one part of my life I can never go back to in any way. That said; in a weird way, I guess, seeing that Storyland is still up and running and people still love it makes it a little easier to think about Heritage being gone. It's nice to see this place almost 20 years later, even if it is through a screen. Thanks for the upload, sir. It really, really brought back a lot of good, old-fashioned, bittersweet memories for me. .
I've lived in New Hampshire for my entire childhood and I've never been here. Looks fun! Though, the designs of the characters look a little too close to Disney.
The crooked mans nails were bent. That’s awesome. I went here when I was little. Called mom to tell her you were visiting. She didn’t think I remembered storyland. You can’t forget storyland. Lol
Oh man, love seeing the NH vids, I miss home ... I went to Story Land as a kid and when we go back to NH we had taken my kids ... Getting too old now but happy memories.
What a neat place especially for little ones. Loved the carosel have never seen one that moved like that. The pirate ship was awesome. I had to laugh when the child said Mom we missed it again about the carriage ride. Loved this. Keep Safe❤Keep Well❤
Good video of an underrated New England attraction. You missed most of the Seas area the Turtle Twirl and Flying Fish. Skipped the Dino area with the dig pit and wooden roller coaster. Roar-a-sourus is a solid family wood coaster and is a step up from Grovers Wacky Taxi. I hope you made it to Santa's Village while you were in the area.
@@crissytracy8517 I went to Clark's Trading Post in the early 80s with my family. What sticks out the most was the trained bear shows... Don't know if they're the same.
I live five min from this place. Great place to go with younger kids. Come back in a couple weeks for the aquarium next door. Lots of cool fun stuff and surprises in there!! Ask for Naomi when u visit 😁
My parents took me there a long time ago when I was a kid and we were visiting my grandparents in VT. If you haven't done so already, you should also visit Santa's village in Jefferson. That's another nostalgic place for me.
😃Thank you dear monsieur Jacob for this visit , 😘,,(secret to Friends, chutt!the Wolf of grand ma house more frighted me than those of Halloween house!!🤗Alice"
I have lived in NH my whole life and have never been to Storyland. Probably because it is so far from where I actually grew up. When I was a kid we went to Santa's Land in Putney, VT several times.
Hi Jacob, I have not seen you go to Canobie Lake Park in Salem N.H. That park has been around since 1895 I think I know it celebrated 100years a while ago. So next season maybe you can go there. Much love from Lowell Massachusetts. KISSES 😘😘
One day you should come back up and go to Clark’s Trading post and see Clark’s bears and the wolfman! Also head over 5 minutes from there and visit the hobo railroad for the lunch train.
I went yesterday and some rides were closed like the pirate ship, the mines tour, chasing balloons, flying fish, and Pharoah’s battle. Did they not have enough employees?
When my family went there back in 1973 or ‘74 they had real horses pulling a pumpkin carriage. They had a traditional carousel too, I guess the old one didn’t last! 😢 They had the flying clogs back then!
Also in vermont in 1 week we have the oldest continuously running Halloween Parade in the country. Located in Rutland been going on every year since 1959. Something I think would be great for this!
it seems to be a knockoff of disney's defunct kitchen kabaret, if you look at the broccoli and pineapple they look very similar to the ones from kitchen kabaret...
I went here all the time as a kid! I’m 23 but I wanna go back to Storyland and Santa’s Village to do it all again! 😫also, was the safari always Dino themed? Because what I remember of it was it used to have a gorilla taking a shower that you’d go by!
Jacob, I want you to know how much I appreciate your videos! I've lived in a wheelchair my whole life: Your videos can take me to so many places that I can never expect to visit, or could even if I was there. Thank you very much for your fun and entertaining comments and videos.
We live in New England and have been here many times. We laugh so hard at the the floating horses pulling the pumpkin carriage ever time.
The levitating horses on the pumpkin carriage are hilarious XD

Wow the red and orange leaves on the trees behind you are gorgeous.
So glad you made it to Storyland! Too bad you couldn't have made it during the summer months! I hope you had a good time and enjoyed the foliage!

Thank you for going to all these parks in NE , not many people do that, keep up the good work!!
wow this place is still here? I went there all the time as a kid!
August Pitatties I know, so much nostalgia.
Any big changes you noticed?

I lol’d for real when i seen the horses pull up with the pumpkin carriage. I wasn’t expecting that 😂
When Disney Land began, my family was working in The Enchanted Forest, one Aunt in the castle, and the other in The Gingerbread House.

What aquarium? I live in NH but haven’t heard of this..
My family brought me to storyland in the late 80's and early 90's. Surprised to see everything looks exactly the same wow pretty cool.
I love how its sticks to its traditions!
'80s* '90s*.
Oh my goodness I used to come here for end of the year field trips back in elementary school! Ah the memories 😌
these places have the nicest most comfortable vibes I swear

This looks like a cute little place. I think my so would love it.
This place looks like such a trip. So creative and... strange. But I have to agree with some of the comments here.... The colors! The leaves! 😍
wow, look that I like as I always remember is very interesting, thanks my friend.

Cute place. I would love to visit one day!
Keep up the good work my guy
To us New Englanders this is our Disneyland
When my family went there back in 1973 or ‘74 they had real horses pulling a pumpkin carriage. They had a traditional carousel too, I guess the old one didn’t last! 😢
They had the flying clogs back then!
You missed the roar a Saurous? The newest ride there is a small scale rollercoaster
Awesome Jacob.
Very fun cool informative video 👍
Also in vermont in 1 week we have the oldest continuously running Halloween Parade in the country. Located in Rutland been going on every year since 1959. Something I think would be great for this!
