Fred Mahana made millions of people happy. . .
If you ever found yourself on the Wildwood, New Jersey boardwalk in the 1950s through 1980s,
chances are you've been touched by Fred Mahana's creative genius and didn't even know it.
Over the years, Fred designed many of the attractions and rides you came to know and love:
Mahana's Marionettes, Mahana's Puppet Theatre, the Palace of Illusions and the Theatre of Blood,
the In Concert, Dracula's Castle, Hitchcock Manor, King Kong and many more.
Along with the non Wildwood attractions of:
Brigantine Castle and Ocean City Maryland's Hollywood Wax Museum.
You may have. . .
• dined at any number of Fred's or Fred's family's establishments:
Black Lantern, Circus Wagon, Sniffy's Hut, Dunks N Dogs / Fast Buck Freddy's, or Chips 'N More
or
• shopped at one of Fred's stores:
Maxfields or Treasure Island
But Fred's story started long before his Wildwood ventures.

about the man you may never have been introduced to, but have always known.
Take a closer look at a man who made a career out of making people happy. . .
