What really happened to SeaWorld Ohio 🐳 the only SeaWorld park in history to permanently close?
In this episode of the Park Peeps Podcast, hosts Joey (@JoeyNolfI) and Demi (@MagicalHijinx) are joined by George Browning, popular theme park YouTuber, to investigate the strange and fascinating history of one of America's most infamous abandoned theme parks 🎢
Located near Cleveland, Ohio, SeaWorld Ohio was once home to iconic orca shows, a massive Shamu arena (the first in the SeaWorld chain), and even wild attractions like water-skiing elephants, animatronic dinosaurs, Pirates 4D, the Mission: Bermuda Triangle simulator, and the now-notorious Baywatch stunt show—which ended in a shocking boat crash accident.
We dive deep into:
The park’s transformation into the huge Six Flags Worlds of Adventure upon Six Flags acquisition 🎡
Its final days as Geauga Lake, and what remains of the land today
Unbelievable moments from the park’s past: from the “Shamu for Mayor” show to creepy eBay-listed dinosaur animatronics that you can buy today.
The rise and fall of animal entertainment, orca whale shows, and behind-the-scenes mishaps
Whether you're a theme park nostalgia junkie, a fan of abandoned places, or fascinated by forgotten amusement history, this deep dive into SeaWorld Ohio is a must-listen.
