It was located in the Spring, Texas, United States, north of Houston,[1] and operated for the 1984 and 1985 seasons.
Subsections of larger theme parks featured characters from the Hanna-Barbera animation studio prior to 1984, primarily the parks owned by Taft Broadcasting such as Kings Island (1972), Kings Dominion (1975), Carowinds (1975), and Canada's Wonderland (1981).
The standalone theme park in Spring was built by Taft Broadcasting,[2] which became the Kings Entertainment Company as of opening.
[5] Despite increased attendance in 1985, a number of factors led to the park's closure.
An oil bust in the early 1980s severely impacted the economy of the Greater Houston area, along with competition with the well-established and more centrally-located AstroWorld, as well as minimal spending in the park on concessions, gift shop purchases, and souvenirs all eventually doomed the park.
