In this episode, host Marissa takes listeners on a journey back to the 1970s to explore Disney's first water park, River Country. Opened in 1976 and closed in 2001, River Country was a place of innovation, tragedy, and mystery. The park was known for its natural swimming experience, using water from Bay Lake, and its rustic charm reminiscent of Tom Sawyer's adventures. However, the park's history is marred by tragic incidents, including a rare brain-eating amoeba infection and multiple drownings, which cast a shadow over its idyllic image. Despite its closure, River Country remains a haunting memory, with stories of ghostly echoes and whispers of its past lingering in the air. The episode delves into the park's rise and fall, its impact on Disney's legacy, and the eerie tales that continue to surround it.
