TOON TERRITORY (Ghost Town):
Speed Racers crash site, the Duracell Battery
family, warped versions on the classic Looney Tunes and Disney characters
were all part of this far out maze. With the toon music and sound
effects present, the entertaining aura of this attraction was very
original. Knott's described it this way: "contaminated cartoon characters
from an abandoned Burbank animation studio create their own wickedly
warped world of lethal comic strip terrors including exploding bombs,
toxic poisons, runaway cars and falling objects of all shapes and
sizes". This maze only lasted two years, and was then halted to
make room for the construction of "GHOSTRIDER". CLICK

 CAMP GONNA GETCHA (Timber Mountain Log Ride):
The psycho Boy Scout theme was introduced in 1996.
This concept was funny from the start, and Knott's has kept on making
it better each year. The themes inside display boy scouts gone mad,
bloody dorm rooms, and shadows of campers in tents murdering each other.
While boarding the logs, the camp counselor is announcing upcoming events
(for example, the movie for the night is "The Exorcist", and for crafts,
making wallets out of human flesh, etc.). This is a classic theme for
the log ride and has now been there for 5 years.
