Planned Transylvanian Dracula theme park hits snag

Posted | Contributed by Taipan

Here's one for the "not in my backyard" file. A group of residents in Romania are protesting the construction of a Dracula themed park because, they say, it will attract satan worshipers.

Read more from The Sydney Morning Herald. (Scroll down to "Fighting tooth and nail.")

Huh... well, thats nothing to shake a STAKE at..... These Guys are DEAD serious. This is really a GRAVE matter. But I don't know about you folks, but Im still DYING to go there!

Well, they DID put up a theme park in Rural Indiana that attracted a whole BUNCH of Santa worshippers...I kill me, LOL!

Why not put it there? Unless you're necrophobic, then GO THERE!

Same thing with heavy metal...It's all the devil. This is taking it just a wee bit too far.

I'm kind of with the residents. An amusement park dedicated to Dracula would be over doing it. The Wizard of Oz, on the other hand...:)

I think its a good idea, if more jobs are created. It would really help out the city a lot. And if someone wanted to build a park by my town, let them go do it! I wont complain. even if its based on evil

If plans fall through and the park is UNDERway, I hope that they don't SUCK the money right out of your GARLIC money.;)

Awake Tour- June 15 - Darwin's Waiting Room, Puddle of Mudd, Deftones, Godsmack

I can see why it is being protested, but I bet that once the park is built half of those portesters will go there anyway.

It most likley will attract satan worshipers. But themed parks aren't the only thing satan worshipers like. You can basically find them anywhere. So it really wouln't help to protest.
