Haunted
Europa-Park Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rattling the doors
Dragging me to hell
My claw marks on the floor
Chained me to the bedpost
Colder than a corpse
Bodies under covers
Your heart's an unending maze
Of dead end rooms and hallways
Can't go back, it's a trap
Won't be your creature
I've lost control
God save my soul
You're just like a haunted house, house
Locked inside I can't get out, out
You're just like a haunted
Feels like I'm crazy
Hallucinating
No one to save me now
House, house, you're just like a haunted
Your heart is barely beating
Have you always been so cold?
My head is still repeating
All the lies that you have told
So runaway, it isn't safe
Am I trapped in here forever?
Sorry to say, you'll never change
And I'd do anything to escape
I've lost control
God save my soul
You're just like a haunted house, house
Locked inside I can't get out, out
You're just like a haunted
Feels like I'm crazy
Hallucinating
No one to save me now
House, house you're just like a haunted
The moonlit skeletons come alive in my dreams
I'm so sick of you haunting me every time I sleep
The walls are bending
And I'm thinking that this is the end
I'm so sick of this fantasy, never-ending dread
You're just like a haunted house, house
Locked inside I can't get out, out
You're just like a haunted
Feels like I'm crazy
Hallucinating
No one to save me now
House, house you're just like a haunted

You've been knocking at the windows
You have persistently tried to gain my attention and access to my inner thoughts and emotions
Rattling the doors
Causing fear and uncertainty, making it difficult for me to find security
Dragging me to hell
Forcefully pulling me into a state of torment and despair
My claw marks on the floor
Evidence of my desperate attempts to cling onto any form of control and resist your grasp
Chained me to the bedpost
Making me feel trapped and confined, unable to escape your influence
Colder than a corpse
Emotionally distant and unfeeling, lacking warmth and compassion
Bodies under covers
Hiding secrets and concealing the true nature of our relationship
Quiet as a morgue
Silent and lifeless, devoid of any genuine connection or communication
Your heart's an unending maze
Your emotions and intentions are complicated and difficult to navigate, leading to confusion and frustration
Of dead end rooms and hallways
Filled with situations and circumstances that offer no progress or resolution, leading to a sense of hopelessness
Can't go back, it's a trap
Unable to return to a previous state of normalcy, as it is a deceptive and harmful situation
Won't be your creature
Refusing to be controlled or manipulated by you any longer
I've lost control
I no longer have power or authority over my own life and emotions
God save my soul
A plea for divine intervention and salvation from the torment I am experiencing
You're just like a haunted house, house
You resemble a place filled with ghosts and unsettling energy, causing fear and unease
Locked inside I can't get out, out
Trapped within your presence and unable to free myself from the negative impact you have on me
Feels like I'm crazy
I question my sanity and mental stability due to the overwhelming and disorienting experiences with you
Hallucinating
Experiencing distorted perceptions and illusions, further contributing to my feelings of confusion
No one to save me now
There is no one available or willing to rescue me from this destructive situation
Your heart is barely beating
Your capacity for empathy and genuine emotion is minimal or nonexistent
Have you always been so cold?
I question if you have always lacked warmth and compassion in your interactions with me
My head is still repeating
My mind continues to replay and dwell on the lies and deceit that you have subjected me to
All the lies that you have told
The false information and deception that you have used to manipulate and control me
So runaway, it isn't safe
The best course of action is to escape from this situation, as it poses a threat to my well-being
Am I trapped in here forever?
I wonder if there is any possibility of ever breaking free from this cycle of torment and manipulation
Sorry to say, you'll never change
Regrettably, I have come to the realization that you are incapable of altering your harmful behavior
And I'd do anything to escape
I am willing to take any measure necessary to liberate myself from your destructive influence
The moonlit skeletons come alive in my dreams
In my subconscious mind, the dormant secrets and haunting memories resurface and manifest as vivid and unsettling images
I'm so sick of you haunting me every time I sleep
I am exhausted and frustrated with the recurring thoughts and memories of you that invade my mind during sleep
The walls are bending
The boundaries of reality and perception are distorted, causing a sense of instability and confusion
And I'm thinking that this is the end
I contemplate the possibility that I have reached the breaking point and that there is no way to escape this torment
I'm so sick of this fantasy, never-ending dread
I am utterly tired of this illusionary world created by your manipulation, filled with constant sadness and anxiety that never seems to cease
House, house you're just like a haunted
You, as an entity, resemble a place filled with lingering spirits and negative energy, causing distress and unease

Just to point it out. This ride was built in the 80s. Like many attractions in the park. Europapark used to be a small local park and there was no Disneyland Paris. They wanted to bring some US ideas to Europe. But now the park has grown with its own reputation. Newer rides and areas are original.

i like it! it really is a mesh mash of Haunted Mansion and scare attractions you'd see at a carnival.
only thing, much like the issue imagineers had, they don't seem to either want to commit to a scary theme or a spooky theme so the whole thing comes out incohesiveness. still fun though.

The "old" elements are cool and fairly scary.
The "new" elements are quite out of place and having comic characters in the ride is just bad design.
The spinning of the cars is quite nice and it goes up and down more often.
And sometimes they introduce little water-spraying gargoyles and stuff that actually surprises you, and what i like the most, not all elements trigger at the same cars, so if you ride it multiple times, some different stuff might get you, thats wonderful.

Hi, John! 👋☺
Wow!😃 I'm impressed!! Obviously, they took some ideas from Disney, but combined those with their own version. I'm usually not impressed with most Halloween attractions, other than Disney's. But this one is pretty cool!👍👻🎃
Btw, you really need a stabilizer, or gimble, for your camera. Too shaky. Otherwise, a great video!!👍🎥

I love the fact that in THIS version of the "haunted mansion" they actually thrust a hanging guy prop into the stretching room

As a lot of people say, it looks like a cheap version of Haunted Mansion, but what's saddening is that it looks like people who made it had some very good ideas, but combined them with cartoon antics that don't fit well.
I've seen videos showing older versions of this ride and while still quite confusing, it looked much more charming... It's too bad they decided to make it so silly.

Yes, but I don't think they had the singing busts/heads in the old version which is my personal favorite part of this ride.

Don’t make it silly
