Ahead of the 2024 season, Blackpool Pleasure Beach has revealed ten of the weirdest and wackiest items that have been found in the park.
It's no secret that guests regularly mistakenly drop things from rides and leave belongings on benches - whether it be from an unzipped pocket or a forgetful friend - but sometimes the missing items aren't as typical as you may think.
Of course the amusement park has seen its fair share of iPhones, wallets, keys and handbags, but with 175 years' worth of thrillseekers stepping through its doors, Blackpool Pleasure Beach is no stranger to a rogue, out-of-place item!
Let's dive in to 10 of the strangest items Blackpool Pleasure Beach employees have found:
9. 24-pack of highlighters
Sometimes you really have to see it to believe it, and this is definitely one of those moments. One can only guess they were to perhaps colour-code the park map, or keep track of what rides the guest had been on? | Mitchell Luo
10. Three of the seven Harry Potter books
Once you’re engrossed in a good book it’s hard to snap back to reality, but surely an amusement park is the exception? Not to mention, where are the other four books, and is someone now walking around with an incomplete collection? Blackpool Pleasure Beach is often described as magical, but not quite like the Wizarding World. | Gwydion M. Williams
