FORKS TWP., Pa. – A Halloween tradition returns in Northampton County.<\/p>\n
The Haunt at Bushkill Park is in full swing.<\/p>\n
69 News reporter Amelia Sack gives us a sneak peek at the scary fun.<\/p>\n
Bushkill Park is trading in its carousels and kiddie rides for spider webs and skeletons during its annual Halloween Haunt.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like to hear the laughter of the kids all summer long, and then when fall comes, I like to hear the screams coming from beyond,\u201d said Susan Klein, manager of Bushkill Park.<\/p>\n
From mid-September through early November, one of America\u2019s oldest amusement parks is transformed into a spooky spectacle.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was scary,\u201d said Mackenzie Vasquez.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it was cool but scary,\u201d said Blair Lee.<\/p>\n
The Haunt at Bushkill Park is home to plenty of thrills \u2014 including the oldest funhouse in the United States.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is America\u2019s oldest funhouse, and it is no longer fun \u2014 it is haunted,\u201d Klein said.<\/p>\n
The two-story building is more than 100 years old.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s one of the many pieces of history at The Haunt at Bushkill Park that keeps people coming back for more family fun.<\/p>\n
\u201cI grew up here, just like so many other people around this area. It\u2019s awesome that the tradition still continues here at Bushkill,\u201d said Joe Rosado of Easton.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople come here year after year just to make more memories \u2014 bring new family members to make more memories,\u201d Klein said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FORKS TWP., Pa. – A Halloween tradition returns in Northampton County.
