The 1991 season added even more props
and events throughout the park, and introduced the Battle of the
Sorcerers complete with its own stage which was built for the Robin Hood
Prince of Thieves show the park hosted over the summer. This was still
very much a family friendly show to be a part of the family oriented
events at the park. At the time Great Adventure was still very focused
on rebuilding their reputation as a family park.
In these early years, few people thought about coming to the park to
celebrate Halloween, so cheap tickets were offered to entice guests.
The end of the season was also a good time for the park to clear out
merchandise, so many of the park shops offered sales.
At the time, there was a rising fear among parents about letting kids
trick-or-treat door to door, and the increasing popularity of Halloween
celebrations everywhere led to further growth of the event each season.
The combination of parents looking for safe alternatives to traditional
trick or treating and the enticement of low crowds and discounted
admission lead the event to grow each season. |
