Publisher's summary
In 1972, the Red Bozos were the friendliest faces in frenetic Midlands Amusement Park: security personnel, yes, but they were more than that, for lost children seeing one of those garish outfits and the sympathetic smile on the painted face atop it knew they would soon be reunited with their parents. Except once in a while...
Flash forward four and a half decades: Midlands is a ghost park. Closed long ago and nearly forgotten, even by the locals, it sits shrouded in undergrowth and hill-topping forest surrounded by upscale new homes. Ringed with a decaying fence, hidden from sight, it presents a huge temptation to a group of bored, thrill-seeking youths who are about to learn that terror is, in fact, immortal.
(Strong language, adult content, graphic violence, sexual situations. Not suited for younger listeners or sensitive types.)

Story
From the writer of Ghost Hunter, Little Women with Big Guns, and Krakenstein vs. Koalatron comes an unforgettable excursion into the depths of the unknown. Loaded end to end with chills, this terrifying narrative is loosely based on accounts of encounters with the legendary Pukwudgie, a cryptozoological "myth" originating in Massachusetts' mysterious Bridgewater Triangle.

Story
Todd Markway's fate was laid out for him that chilly February 29 when he was born. The Hat Man was coming for him; it was just a matter of time. And no one can stop the Hat Man - no one, that is, but a bunny. Todd's spirit guardian has kept him alive, defending him from the most fearsome "shadow being" in the spectral world on Markway's fourth and eighth birthdays. But the rabbit, Galbey, is gone, and the most critical birthday of all is coming up - Todd's 12th. And this time, he's on his own.

Story
Lost and cursed by treasure, Sinbad is racing to save his mother's realm from an advancing army of monsters. Agonized by his mistakes, Jason has taken the Argonauts on a seemingly impossible quest to alter the past. Their fateful paths cross on an island guarded by monstrous titans and warriors of rock and magma, where they find the secrets of a great crystalline temple are barred to even the greatest of "mere mortals." Forced to seek help, they set off together to confront the demigod Jason left behind: the mighty Heracles. Together the three might have some fighting chance of surviving the dangers ahead.

Put them on the trail of a mystery so twisted and deep that they're in way over their heads before they've even set foot outside the Wizard's palace.

Story
It’s the mid-'90s. Grunge and flannel are fading as the Spice Girls and Hot Topic conquer the malls. Cherry gloss glistens on the lips of the youth. Modems hiss as America comes online. And in a fog-drenched cove at the edge of New England, something terrible awakens when a fisherman reels in a gruesome catch: the remains of a young woman. Remains still pulsing with furious life.

All the parents must do to collect the rest of their money is allow their children to test out the revolutionary playground equipment Geraldine has been working on for decades. But there’s a reason the structures in the bowels of her gothic castle have taken so long to develop—they were never meant to see the light of day.

Since moving to Mystic Harbor, Maine, I've made it my life's mission to avoid Reese Blackburn at all costs. Sure, he has cheekbones that could cut glass, not to mention bedroom eyes that could melt any girl into a puddle on the floor. Too bad that doesn't change the fact he's completely stab-worthy. When a fun night out on the town turns deadly, I quickly discover the quaint little hamlet of Mystic Harbor houses more than sandy beaches and adorable B&Bs. Beneath the New England charm rests a world where shifters, demons, vampires, and angelic hunters all vie for power.

A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City.

And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

Great Book
Trespassing into an abandoned amusement park that is rumored to be haunted. What could go wrong? Anything and definitely everything. I found this book to be creepy and quite entertaining, especially the fact that I hate clowns. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.

Great book, just wish it was longer
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
This was a fantastic and creepy book. It was short, but I loved it. The narration is done well and for such a short story, it really kept my interest well and didn't feel rushed or unfinished. I'll definitely look for more from this author.

A very good story
An entertaining horror/ghost story about a group of teens who trespass into a long closed amusement park and what (or who) they encounter. This book goes a little deeper than the typical teen horror story. It is told from each perspective, with each person revealing a unique personality and perspective. Candela also gives us a stronger background to what is, or was, going on in the park. A very good story.

Pick this up for a spooky night!
"I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.”
This was a treat to listen! I’ve enjoyed the partnership between author Kevin and narrator Gary.
This was a quick almost-slasher listen. If it was a movie, it’s definitely a B movie; as an audio, it was a lot of fun/thrill/shrill. It wasn’t too deep, the reasoning was mediocre, the ways-to-die were interesting.
I liked the characters, even though they were only surface deep.
I would definitely recommend it to those who want a “quickie horror” and not mind boggling. I’m definitely looking forward to more from this duo.

Not terrible
This just wasn't for me. It started off promising, with a haunted, abandoned amusement park, but it takes a weird turn in the middle that I just didn't enjoy. I also felt that the narrator was kind of emotionally flat.

Good Read
It's Only Funny If You Laugh: The Haunting of the Midlands Amusement Park by Kevin Candela was a good quick read. Midlands Amusement Park is an overgrown shut down park. People go to check the place out and things don't go as they think.

4 stars
I went into this story blind, purely off the title. I was expecting something funny, but it was a serious story. Amusement parks make for great haunted places right? There's so many fun places and rides and attractions for the events to take place, so that was pretty kewl. I recieved a free audio code in exvhange for the review. The voice was good, but with the same as majority of listens, when there's a male narator, it's sometimes hard to tell the sex of a character if it's a unisex name. Or maybe I wasn't paying enough attention. It didn't really affect the story much and I still enjoyed the listen.

Scary rollercoaster horror with hidden secrets
It’s Only Funny If You Laugh, The Haunting of the Midlands Amusement Park written by Kevin Candela. The narration is provided by Gary Bennett. The running time is 2 hours and 36 minutes. During that time the listener is taken on a wild ride from the mind of the author. According to the publishers summary a group of bored, thrill-seeking youths who are about to learn that terror is, in fact, immortal. That is just the tip of the iceberg of this unique horror, time travel, and clown filled story.
The groups of youth’s breaks in with the intent of having some fun in the old haunted Amusement Park until things start to go wrong. This at first appears to be your standard B-type horror story as the character start to get picked off one by one. Then things are changed up and the story really got interesting and unique. The surviving characters all shared a dark secret.
This story does a fair job of hold the listener’s attention. Then action does start quickly early on with some quick and shocking deaths in standard horror fashion. As the story slows down to develop the time travel plot is where this listener’s attention started to wander. I enjoyed the aspect of the story just felt it was a bit and understood the need to develop the plotline but it just made the story drag. The overall story is really good. The ending actually had me rolling with the Sheriff talking to one of the Youths and his mention of the FBI Agents they had called. I laughed and had a huge grin on my face.
The narration by Gary Bennett was simply amazing in the audio performance. Mr. Bennett brought something unique to each character in this story. This was a large cast of male and female characters voices and the narrator made sure this was a truly enjoyable audio performance. The characters were memorable and I enjoyed the production to a greater level due to the narration. The production quality of this audiobook is also the highest quality. I heard no problems during the entire performance. There were not any detectable flaws that I was able to hear during the entire performance such as loops, breaks, or buzzing. The production was crisp and clear. Fire Dragon Publishing delivered an excellent audiobook production.
Audiobook was provided for review by the author/narrator/publisher.

Chilling Haunted Amusement Park story
This book had everything I look for in a haunted house/haunted amusement park story plus a little more (the ending was quite surprising, which I like, hate predictable endings).
A group of teenagers go to a haunted amusement park for fun (to their credit, they didn't know it was haunted) and discover not just a haunting but killer clowns. The situation can't get much worse than that. As the death count ranks up, we discover the chilling truth behind the haunting.
With lots of unexpected twists in the story and a little humor thrown in occasionally, this was a very satisfying and entertaining read.
