The Fun House was an attraction built just north of the second Dancing Pavilion in 1913 by C. Rarick. It included a human roulette wheel, bull-moose glide, rolling waves, funny stairs, electric floor, rainstorm, wire maze, comic slides, and more.[1][2][3][4] The contract with the Dusenbury Brothers was for five years[5] and possibly became the Joy Mill, but it is listed separately in some sources in the 1920s.
