What Is The Enchanted Forest In Maryland?

The Enchanted Park was an amusement park in the city of Ellicott City in the state of Maryland in the United States. It is located on US Highway 40 (Baltimore National Pike). It is near the intersection with Bethany Lane. The amusement park has now closed down, and has opened up in other parts of the country. It opened on August 15, 1955 amidst much fanfare a month after Disneyland opened. Primarily targeted at families with small children, the theme park had several rides based on characters and events from fairy tales and nursery rhymes, such as Cinderella's pumpkin and the shoe which was the home of the old woman in The Old Woman and the Shoe.

It was also used as one of the locations for the shooting certain portions of the 1990 movie Cry Baby, which had Johnny Depp in the lead role. The park closed down in 1989, but was reopened briefly between 1994 and 1997.
