aug 3, 1998 - Case EMC-4765; Bluefish
Waterpark Hoax
Description:
"A recorded tape was entered into the Eventide Media Center Special Access Media Library on August 3rd, 1998. This tape contained an instructional training video for Bluefish Waterpark employees. While Bluefish Waterpark is a real waterpark operating in Indigo Shoals, Massachusetts, the tape itself was declared a hoax. The instructional video described an alleged sea creature known as the 'special guest' that was fed with human parkgoers. An extensive investigation of the waterpark by the Eventide Media Group found no evidence of any such sea creature. Furthermore, none of the alleged 'alternative' functions of the waterpark attractions were ever uncovered. The infrastructure in the park was found to be completely non-anomalous. The perpetrator of the hoax has yet to be found; it is believed that the hoax was created for a visual effects school project."
