Monsterquarium was one of the four haunted mazes that was featured during Halloween Horror Nights 1997 (Hollywood).
Description[]
Monsterquarium was a walk-through experience that was created in the Waterworld front of house and stage area. Due to the odd location, it relied on weird vignettes, animatronics, stunts and actors in and on the water.
Experience[]
According to this: the experience was a unique in its theming. There were many of aquariums, some using dry-for-wet and some using actual water, containing quite an assortment of different static props, mechanical monsters (including two made by Total Fabrication, a moving squid, appropriate since these guys also made the (motorless) motorized octopus from Ed Wood, and a huge devil fish head that would fly at guests, chomping away, in the last corridor of the maze, and human scareactors such as a mermaid. One featured a guy in an open-front tank who would complain about how he couldn't get out to go to the bathroom, and then while yelling that he couldn't hold it any longer, he'd squirt you.
