Lato 246 October 29, 2014 Share October 29, 2014 I went shopping today and I took photos of the inside of an abandoned Blockbusters shop, sorry about the reflections. When you see it... I was thinking about writing a Creepypasta with these photos. I bought 007: Goldeneye reloaded, and my sister bought clothes. We didn't stay for so long, although I had a good time 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeraphStar 398 October 29, 2014 Share October 29, 2014 I second this creepypasta idea! Sounds interesting — and you can teach young people what Blockbuster was. ♪If I could find you now, things would get better, We could leave this town and run forever, I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together, Let your waves crash down on me and take me away♪ ~Yellowcard Bangarang, Peter Pan.

They'll learn from psychological pain and violence I was going to write about the South Park episode when Randy goes crazy, but I forgot haha! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scootaloodle 1,622 October 29, 2014 Share October 29, 2014 It’s not surprising but sad the video rental store is dead. It used to be a fun trip going out to find a film to watch or whatever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatekeeper Giggle 2,902 October 29, 2014 Share October 29, 2014 I'd be careful going into those abandoned blockbuster stores if I were you. Some say that the tortured souls of blockbuster employees still roam the dusty halls, looking for vengeance against Netflix and Redbox. 4 My OCs: Dividend Yield, Stormgiggle | Ask Me questions! | My Counting Game Jeric, on 25 Sept 2014 - 6:09 PM, said: Any problem that you may experience on this site can be solved immediately if you simply throw Fluttershy into a wood chipper.

Thrashy 2,800 October 29, 2014 Share October 29, 2014 You mean to tell me there's a unit that has yet to be assimilated by the Borg acquired by GameStop? Something is amiss. Nah, but seriously, cool find. The wannabe urban explorer in me is always fascinated by abandoned structures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concerto Dusk 240 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 I Rte remember renting Twisted Metal from there. Got me into rob zombie, and that got me into metal in general. Blockbuster made me who I am today, it is sad they are gone. So, people have mistaken me for a nice guy. I'm not. Don't like it? Tough.

Gone Airbourne 21,977 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 I missed that going out for a bit get away from the house doing things...

Celli 4,338 October 31, 2014 Share October 31, 2014 I remember going to those. The one here in Niagara Falls closed like 5 years ago. Now we have this small video store Family Video. 2 of 'em. I used to rent *GASP* VHS tapes! It's been so long since I watched a VHS. I think the last movie I watched on tape was Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
