Full transcript of Why did developers build a massive, whimsical children's theme park

Why did developers build a massive, whimsical children's theme park right next to one of the most tragic and deeply unsettling forests on Earth? Opened in 1997, Gulliver's Kingdom in Japan was designed to be a magical fantasy world. Its centerpiece was an absolutely colossal, 147-foot concrete statue of Gulliver, tied to the ground by tiny Lilliputians. It was an incredible feat of engineering. But the park had an inherently dark energy that visitors could feel immediately. It was built directly adjacent to Aokigahara, Japan's notorious Suicide Forest, where countless tragedies have occurred. Even worse, it was located right next to the former headquarters of a dangerous, apocalyptic doomsday cult. The overwhelming combination of the tragic forest's history and the terrifying cult associations terrified families away. The park went bankrupt and closed forever in 2001, leaving the massive giant lying abandoned in the mountain fog for years before its demolition. Was building this park here a massive corporate mistake, or was the land cursed from the start? Let me know what you think in the comments!
