Only the Pied Piper remains...

[China Lee, 09/16/2019]This is the Pied Piper of Hamelin, the most visible remnant of Story Land, a kiddie park that closed in the 1980s.
After a successful stop at a giant coffee pot, we thought we'd check out a defunct Fairy Tale Land. Much like in an actual fairy tale, everything was all magic -- giant whales, mushroom houses, gingerbread men, and Humpty Dumpty- -- until the Big Bad Wolf arrived. Central PA's version drives a four wheeler and wears a Trump t-shirt. "CAN'T YOU READ MY SIGNS, I'M SICK OF THIS S**T!!" yelled the BBW as he revved his engine in a threatening manner towards Amy. "I OUGHTA CALL THE STATE POLICE" he roared in response to Goldilock's sassy response. In a happy ending, Hansel and Gretel escaped in an Acura as he huffed and puffed and maybe blew the shoe house down.
[Damien, 09/21/2016]Though few children recall being read the No Trespassing fairy tales chapter, they have no one to blame but themselves if they end up baked into a pie.
