Me and a couple friends snuck into majik landing which is now apparently not very easy to get into no, and heard the laughing of a little girl. There was no explanation for the laughing little girl laughing. However, this has no correlation to the story you all mentioned you definitely feel like you are being watched. The disfigured animatronics ARE creepy.

I’m currently working at the shop where magic landing once was and it’s all sorts of creepy, shadow figures, voices, lights flickering, stuff moving/ getting thrown, feeling someone touch you, There’s still old slides from the park here
