Two additional catalogs have been added to the Bill Tracy Project. The first, an original book published by Tracy’s Outdoor Dimensional Display Company, is entitled “The Haunted House” and outlines the two-story dark ride package in full. This catalog is from 1963, and influenced the construction of Trimper’s Haunted House in Ocean City, Maryland, which was erected in 1964.

The second catalog was published for the 1970 season by Tracy’s company, Amusement Display Associates, and outlines the multi-level dark ride packages that he built toward the later part of his career. Both books are extremely rare and include images of stunts and facades not seen in his more common catalogs.
