Brenneke Black Magic Magnum shotgun slugs are a popular choice among hunters and shooters for their impressive performance and accuracy. These slugs are known for their ability to deliver devastating energy and stopping power, making them ideal for taking down big game animals such as deer and hogs. The main idea behind Brenneke Black Magic Magnum shots is their design and construction. These slugs are made from a lead alloy core that is encased in a special black coating. This coating not only provides enhanced lubrication during barrel passage but also ensures a clean release from the barrel and improved accuracy. The **key feature** of these slugs is their unique reverse-groove sabot design.

Bloody Ghost Girl Haunts This Old Amusement Park In Texas

Magic Landing, which was a large amusement park, opened its doors to the public on the fourth of July.

Many incidents are said to have taken place at Magic Landing, but only one that has been officially recorded.

The Freak El Paso Accident of 1985

Updated 2/11/2020 – In 1985, park employee Frank Guzman attempted to rescue a visitor’s hat on a roller coaster track, when the carts on the track rushed past, his arm was severed off.

Due to a delay in getting to the hospital, Frank passed away.

Attendance waned after the incident, and the park was forced to close its door a few years later.

While the park was eventually demolished, many rumors still remain about the other incidents that occurred at the park during its glory days.

One rumor includes the death of a girl who fell of a ride and perished.

Some dismiss this rumor, but for El Paso native Suzanne, the story correlates with an eerie experience she had at Magic Landing.

“I believe it was 1994, as I was a senior in high school,” Suzanne recalled.

“Magic Landing was no longer open, but several of the buildings and empty facilities remained.

A lot of students from the high school liked to sneak in at night and hang out.

Some of us were trying to learn graffiti, though none of us were ever good at it,” she added with a laugh.

“It was the weekend, and a few of us decided to go to Magic Landing and down a few beers.

Most of the buildings didn’t have any furniture left, but the brick was nice and solid and you couldn’t tell we were there once we were inside.

“We each had a couple of beers, and were chasing each other around from building to building.

I was hiding from the others in the bathroom when I heard my friend Morgan scream nearby.

“It wasn’t a scream of enjoyment—I could tell something was wrong.

So I left the bathroom and tried to locate her based on the sound.

Our other friend, Theresa, ran into me outside and together we tracked Morgan down.

“We found her in a small, square red brick building about fifty yards away.

When we walked in, she had her back turned to us and was pointing to the corner…and standing there was a little girl,” Suzanne said, nervously running a hand through her hair.

“She wore a white, poofy dress typical of a six or seven year old.

Her hair was in pigtails and she was smiling at us.

I would have assumed she lived nearby and had run away from home if…,” she hesitated.

“If she didn’t have blood all over the front of her dress, and eyes that were all white.

We all just stood there, dumbstruck—I think we were in shock, to be honest.

When I came to my senses, I whispered to my friends that we should run,” said Suzanne.

“But suddenly the little girl lifted off the ground and began to float up! Morgan, Theresa and I all screamed ourselves hoarse as we ran clear out of the park and half a mile down the road.

When El Paso decided to tear the place down, it was music to my ears,” she nodded.

“I heard that the land is now used as a lot for a trucking company, or something.

I’ll take their word for it, I’m never going back anywhere near there.”

Magic Landing (El Paso, Texas)

An abandoned amusement park that closed down during spring of 1988. Even though the rides aren't there, the buildings still stand. There are still stuffed animals, paper plates, napkins, cash registers, etc. with the Magic Landing logo on them. There was rumored to be many incidents but one is a fact: An employee got his arm cut off from an operational rollercoaster trying to retrieve a hat for a patron and died in the ambulance.

Comments

From the El Paso Times 6/6/08: A ghost story apparently is luring trespassers to the abandoned Magic Landing Amusement Park in East El Paso County, but sheriff's officials warn that anyone caught on the property will be arrested. Five men and a woman were arrested on criminal trespass charges at 12:30 a.m. Thursday after deputies spotted flashing lights and heard noises coming from the park, infamously nicknamed "Tragic Landing." "The theory is that a kid had his hand chopped off. The kid died and his spirit or his ghost is haunting Magic Landing. It's on the Internet," sheriff's spokesman Deputy Jesse Tovar said. He said he thought the ghost story was what brought Thursday's trespassers to the park. The ghostly tale, like any other good legend, is based partly on fact. Magic Landing, which was billed as El Paso's answer to Disneyland, opened July 4, 1984, along Interstate 10 between Americas Avenue and Horizon Boulevard. A 15-story-tall Ferris wheel loomed over the park at the end of its main boulevard, Texas Street, which was lined with shops selling ice cream, giant teddy bears and novelties. There were roller coasters, a log flume and other rides. In 1985, tragedy struck when an 18-year-old park employee, Frank Guzman Jr., was killed when his arm was severed by a roller-coaster car. The park closed in 1989.

wow me and my cuzins um "got access" to go in magic landing last summer and that place is creepy as creepy gets! i wish i could of gone wen it ws still open :/ but that ws a loooong time ago

Magic Landing in Memoriam

This website is an archive of what remained of a park that was mired in controversy, tragedy then long forgotten about. All photographs were taken as an archive of what the park looked like back in June 2005, as well as various reader submitted photographs of their visits to the park when it was in operation. I DO NOT CONDONE THE UNLAWFUL ACT OF BREAKING & ENTERING, NO MATTER WHAT THE CAUSE.

The **key feature** of these slugs is their unique reverse-groove sabot design. This design allows for easy loading and minimal fouling while also providing excellent rotational stability during flight. As a result, the slugs maintain a stable trajectory and deliver exceptional accuracy, even at extended ranges.

History

Magic Landing opened on July 4th 1984, with most of its rides not operable. There are several reports of the park not having the required insurance policies on all of its rides at the time it opened, but managed to open without these policies to make the scheduled open. Another problem the park faced was its open date. Most of the rides weren't fully constructed & inspected by the time the park opened, which prompted the insurance companies to not let the rides operate on its opening day. For the first few months the park was moderately successful, spawning some small concerts (local bands) and fireworks fesitivies every Friday. As we (El Pasoans) know now, fireworks have always been banned inside the city limits, so when the park offered fireworks every week, it was an added incentive.

I do not have an accurate timeline of events that caused the park to close, but I do know of the incidents at the park that caused lawsuits and its eventual demise. The most noted was the accident on the rollercoaster. The Wildcat was a steel rollercoaster that was bought from Six Flags Magic Mountain after that park decided to get rid of it. Rebuilt in El Paso, the death on the ride happened when the ride operator was trying to retrieve a baseball cap blown off of a park patron. The operator's arm was cut off as he forgot where some of the active parts of the ride were and an oncoming car cut it off. He subsequently bled to death en route to the hospital.

An interesting side note, after the park was shut down permanently in 1988, the rollercoaster stood at the park until 1990, when it, along with most other rides were taken down and placed in storage, or set up for sale. The Wildcat was bought and has been in operation in Durango Mexico at one of their major amusement parks since 1993.

Another accident (a story that seems to be collaborated by too many people but no news articles in any newspaper) happened on the Ferris wheel. The one at Magic Landing was the largest free standing Ferris wheel in the state of Texas, but unknown if it was also the largest one in the 48 contingent United States. The park had at one point been able to sell alcohol to park patrons, and its unclear whether or not this woman's unstable mental capacitites had anything to do with it, freaked out while on the Ferris wheel. With no restraints, and an open gondola design, she stood up and tried to jump off the ride. She ended up falling to the car below her, and was seriously injured.

Also involving alcohol, there was an instance where during a concert, there was several park patrons who got too drunk and started fighting. There are conflicting reports (found in several newspaper clippings) what misc. weapons were used in this altercation, but most accounts have them as either an axe, ice pick or baseball bat.

Now with this said, we can see that there are several lawsuits spurring up from this. There are some other bits of insight that were told to the El Paso Inc. by the owner of Western Playland, Pat Thompson.

E.P.I.-Why does Western Playland succeed where Magic Landing failed?

P.T.-Magic Landing was trying to be a theme park. El Paso wasn't really ready for one. It doesn't have the population or the family income levels to support a theme park. When people go on vacation, they're willing to spend extra money on theme parks. But, see, you wouldn't do it here (or) even in California. Disneyland can't get the locals to come out. They have to give big discounts to draw them out. Western Playland isn't here for the tourists. It can't be. There's not enough tourist traffic in El Paso.

When you look back at all of this, you see that Magic Landing was doomed. Couple this with numerous lawsuits filed by the victim's family and poor word-of-mouth advertising and you see that there was no chance for the park to re-open anytime soon. There was some hope, however.

When Magic Landing went under, developers for the Six Flags corporation came to El Paso to see if they could build a new amusement park in town. When they first saw the land and the existing yet closed park, they saw potential. In their demographic surveys, a 300 mile radius around El Paso showed that cities such as Albuquerque, Tucson, Midland and Las Cruces -- not to mention the fact it was on the border with Mexico & Juarez, the park would warrant the sort of tourist dollars they were looking for to build in El Paso and become a tourist hot-spot. Land owners of the park [Magic Landing] refused to sell to Six Flags Corp. and they in turn went to the city of El Paso to possibly get land tax free in exchange for the boom in tourist dollars.

El Paso City Counsel rejected their request.

El Paso has now lost Western Playland to Sunland Park, New Mexico.

Makes you a little mad, doesn't it?

Great read. I remember Magic Landing vividly although ironically I never went. My friends frequent visits and their description of the park are what I remember. Do you know who the owners of the park were and what plans the city or current owners have for the land? Thanks

The park belongs to Michael & George Dipp. The brothers own several high profile buildings in El Paso, including one of the buildings downtown (The Plaza Hotel). They have had no plans to sell the land to the city, nor to sell to any individual person or entity. They keep their buisness to themselves and rarely raise too much of an uproar about themselves.

As for plans for the land, the owners seem to be happy with the park in its state of ruin. There are some government tax breaks for ventures & buisnesses that fail, and its believed (without facts from the people its just hearsay) that the owners of Magic Landing are letting the park remain closed to collect tax breaks offered by the government.

Odds are the reason that the park's owners do not sell it is because they are getting paid to have the park remain a failure. It makes perfect sense considering the other building (the aforementioned Plaza Hotel) is itself closed. How can a buisness man keep his ventures profitable if they're closed unless getting subsidies from the government for still holding onto failed buisnesses.

Makes you think.

Your right. It does make you think and in fact upsets me. I believe it is that type of business mentality that has kept El Paso the city it is. Never being able to turn the corner and never really knowing what our full potential is. The people with the money, don't want to invest money in our city!

I go to Socorro High School which u may all may know is right ijn front of the place where Magic Landing was or in this case is. Ive hear many things about this place and Ive visited it a couple of times when i go out on runs over there. So the deaths and stuff really did happen? I know I wasnt born yet so I have know knowledge but I really want in depth specific information. That place was just abandoned. I mean I went in there and there were still vending machines and some teddy bears on shelves. It was very creepy.Well i jus wanted to know if there was someway you could tell me. Oh yeah by the way cool site thingy.

Who wrote the post above? An infant??

The concept map posted above is fake. It is a map of Blackpool Pleasure Beach in the U.K. (the map can be found on the internet). It also incorporates the new Six Flags logo that wasn't in use until 1999.

Also, SeaWorld was never a corporate partner of Six Flags. It has always been a competitor and is currently owned by Busch.

Finally, SeaWorld did not follow Six Flags to San Antonio - it was built in 1988. That's four years earlier than Fiesta Texas was built and eight years before Fiesta Texas was bought by Six Flags.

I agree with the above post, I have found that the concept map above is indeed a fake.I believe that the Six Flags company did want to build a park here, but that is not the map of how they intended it to look like. So how did that map ended up being labled as the drawing board for "Six Flags Magic Landing" when it is just a map of an already existing park in England? What, did they plan to make an exact duplicate of that park, or who is the prankster behind that joke? To the person who created this whole site, care to provide some answers to these questions?

Anonymous, you are right. When I tried searching for photos of the park this photo was found on a different website (and at least one person who emailed the same photo) and I blindly accepted the photo as fact.

It is indeed a fake photo, and the timeline identifying Fiesta Texas, Sea World and their reported affiliation are also incorrect.

Those will be removed immediately.

Might I add, I nave never said I have all the answers to what happened that tract of land out in the county of El Paso. The information that surfaces is hard to prove due to the inability of owners, partners and participants to come forward and give their accounts of the history that happened out there some 14 years ago. magiclanding.blogspot.com has always been intended on being a BLOG about the photographs I took inside the park and telling a little side story or two which are the views and opinions of the moderators and contributors alone, and do not in any way represent the truth of what happened unless noted *with* newspaper articles or first hand accounts with workers of the park.

With that said, I will be more attentive in information posted here.

Michel and George you sould make a new Magic Landing, please it's cool.Because I never had the oportunity to go,if you do it I goin to go evry day,but do it on El Paso Tx.

Comment deleted by request.

I am glad this site was made. I have always been in wonder towards Magic Landing. Now I know what happened.

On another note that really irritated me about El Paso denying Six Flags a deal to bring that attraction here. I believe it would have helped El Paso get bigger in a very positive way. Wholesome family entertainment.

Also a bit annoyed by El Paso losing Western Playland, I liked that spot, now that its in Sundland Park I feel its not that good. This city annoys me.

I worked at Magic Landing the first year it was open. It was a great place with great potential. The biggest thing going against the park from the get-go, was it's owner George Dipp. He was a cheap and dis-honest individual who cut corners left and right. He was dis-respectful towards employees as well as his own management team. It didn't take long for everyone to catch on-and lose faith in the venture. In the end employees were stealing from the park like crazy; free food, product etc . . . I personally took my weight in Magic tricks from the magic shop where I worked. We all saw it as compensation for the ill treatment on behalf of The big Dipper, and he was too ignorant to know what was going on. If he had simply been a decent human being, who knows how big ML could have been. He's now just a -sadtwitchy old bastard

I live in El Paso but I never went to Magic Landing (I was born in 85) I really wanted to know the story behind it. I just remember my family would refer to it as "Tragic Landing". I actually want to see how it looks now. I know there are a bunch of trailers parked there and I cant really go in there (damn u criminal trespassing law! haha). A few of my friends snuck in back in high school and managed to snag a few tshirts.

Someone has uploaded a video of Magic Landing from their own personal home video collection, circa 1980's. Search "Magic landing" in youtube. comes right up.

Wow, I loved the read. I have very fond memories of Magic Landing from when I was a kid and since I was young, never really knew what happened, I just knew it wasn't open anymore. then the crazy rumors started and really didn't know what happened. it was very interesting to stroll down memory lane. Too bad my kids never got to go. (At least there's Western playland.. CUZ IT'S STILL THE SAME! actually since it moved, its worse-but hey I'm glad there's at least something :)

When it comes to performance, Brenneke Black Magic Magnum shots excel. The slugs are known for their impressive muzzle velocity and energy transfer upon impact. This combination results in a devastating terminal effect, making them highly effective for hunting big game. Another **important point** to note is that these slugs are available in various gauges, including 12 gauge and 20 gauge, catering to the preferences and needs of different shooters. Additionally, they come in different weights, ranging from 2/3 ounce to 1 3/8 ounce, allowing shooters to choose the option that best suits their specific hunting or shooting requirements. It is also worth mentioning that these slugs are engineered to minimize recoil, making them more manageable and comfortable to shoot. This recoil reduction is achieved through the use of a specific propellant blend and the slug's design, ensuring an enjoyable shooting experience without compromising performance. Overall, Brenneke Black Magic Magnum shots are a reliable and highly effective choice for hunters and shooters looking for accuracy, power, and consistent performance. With their unique design, superb terminal performance, and range of options, these slugs prove to be a top choice for those seeking reliable and effective ammunition for their shotgun..
