Noel Edmond's Mr Blobby theme park was weirder than you could have ever imagined

Blobbyland, which was called a number of different names during its two year run, was a bizarre homage to the strange Noel's House Party character that took over the nation back in the 90s

Blobbyland was a nineties fever dream.

The beloved - often feared - children's TV character Mr Blobby was the main focus of the theme park, which was situated in the Cricket St Thomas Wildlife Park. The location was also known as Dunblobbin and Crinkley Bottom, which is also what happened to knackered parents at the thought of being forced to splash their well-earned cash at a Mr Blobby themed kids' attraction.

The monstrous pink creature ruled TV screens back in the 90s after he was first introduced as part of Noel's House Party back in 1992. Covered in sickly pus-yellow spots, adorned with a creepy clown's bow tie and soulless googly eyes, for some unknown reason Mr Blobby became an instant hit with audiences.

Noel Edmonds decided to milk the yellow-spotted cash cow as much as possible and opened Blobbyland in 1994, during the peak of what has been affectionately branded as Blobbymania. Pictures of Blobbyland (or Dunblobbin...or Crinkley Bottom...) show a gigantic pink house modelled after the big man himself.

Surrounded by a white picket fence, trees and flowers, the Dunblobbin house featured an ominous doorbell with a stark warning: "DO NOT PUSH." Little is known of what happened to the poor, unfortunate souls that did.

According to the official Dunblobbin website, the theme park "went that extra mile" to provide children with a "fun space to play" - while no doubt scarring them for life in the process. Blobbyland apparently featured "all manner of ball pools, slides and tunnels," along with a "large number of coin operated rides".

The hell-scape also "housed a number of very odd 'shops', similar to those that appeared in Crinkley Bottom high street" - and certainly not forgetting the horrifyingly named "Gunge Factory".

Some visitors might have caught a glimpse of Mr Blobby and his nightmare-fuel of a wife "waving from a building's balcony or prancing around in the makeshift chequerboard courtyard of the venue". The lucky few who managed to collar the massive pink marshmallow before he "pranced" off were able to begrudgingly snap a few pictures of their children with "the Blobby family".

No doubt you'll be heartbroken to hear that Blobbyland is no longer - the place closed down in 1996 and was demolished to the ground back in 2014. Urban explorers were drawn to the abandoned buildings and pictures of the once-thriving (we use this phrase loosely) adventure park have since surfaced online.

The dilapidated Dunblobbin building was shown totally overgrown with trees and foliage, while a giant toilet seat built for the behemoth Blobby family was left to rot, covered in dirt and filth somewhere on the long lost Blobbyland grounds.
