Brigantine, New Jersey is a seaside town along the southern coast of the state and is one of many towns visited by Philadelphians during the summer months. During the late 70s and early 80s, one of Brigantine's biggest attractions was Brigantine Castle, a haunted castle with the usual ghosts, vampires, and other things that go bump in the night. It closed in the mid 80s and later was destroyed by a fire.
Here are two TV commercials that aired for the castle continuously in the summer months. They scared the pants off me when I was a kid!
Oh, two off-topic things I should mention. One, today is the one year anniversary of this blog! I plan to have a more formal post about this after the Halloween stuff is over, so stay tuned!
