Okay; So back in the day, (Me and the HH go way back) my aunt used to do this journal we called a "Sunday plus book" with us; mostly because we were there on Sundays every week, but occasionally, we would go on trips, etc; So...
One of the first entries has to do with a headless man by the name of "Professor Steve Count Dracula"...
I can't even begin to fathom how this name came about, bu apparently the count's thick Transylvanian accent was hard for me to understand as a child; that being said, I would think standing infront listening to that spiel like I did would have at least taught me the proper title...
(Here is an Capture of the Original Illustration I did of Him years ago; I still was drawing the HH back then)
Now we go a decent bit further into the journal; apparently it was on the nice January day the ride opened that I think I had mentioned before that I learned his name...
I'll never really be sure How he held the moniker of "Prof.Steve Count Dracula" for a good One an a half years, but I think it's funny looking back.

Haha we all did stuff like that kind of like how I would draw the facade of the Haunted House and it looked so wrong compared to what it really looks like.

I wrote a little book about Ocean City years ago, and one of the pages is about the Haunted House. It says, "I like the guy holding his head." Awesome stuff!

Haha; Anyone remember the Rugrats? I don't know if I still have it; but I used to make Rugrat stories; One of them was about going to Ocean city where they ride the Haunted House; I'll have to look for it, I think I might know where it is...

Thanks for sharing Mike, this is awesome. Rugrats were incredible, along with Doug, Ah Real Monsters, Rocko, and Are you afraid of the dark.

Haha. I loved that show back in the day; me and my brother used to pretend we were the Rugrats; Cartoons these days are nothing like the old days; I loved Rocko's Modern Life, Ahhh Real Monsters, Hey Arnold, and those classics; Any one remember Ka-Blam! with Action League Now?
And who here saw Toy Story 3? The end is so sad...I don't think I have ever cried at a move before; Toy Story 3 hits you in the heart about growing up an leaving the past behind.

I LOVED Toy Story 3! And, yes, I cried during the ending....when he brought Woody out from the box, and paused....I was like....Niagara Falls... and I ESPECIALLY LOVE how they had a Totoro plush doll in it. I'm a fan of Hayo Miyazaki movies. I hate how they haven't put out Aaahh Real Monsters dvds yet.....

I still haven't seen Toy Story 3 yet...
Nickelodeon NEEDS to bring back Hey Arnold, CatDog, Rocket Power, Wild Thornberries, etc.! Great shows that actually had value!

Cool! 3D, or 2D? I didn't see it in 3D, but from what I heard, it doesn't take from it, or really add much too it.

2d again, 3d is not worth the extra $6

Yeah; 3D is to expensive for a film that is good on it's own...
The same can't be said for stuff like that James Cameron tripe "Avatar" or "Morbid Manor 3D"...extra money for glasses to make it seem interesting...
