There are some unhappy parents in Scotland. Parents spend $45 on tickets for what they thought was an immersive Willy Wonka experience, which would let them feel like they were actually walking through Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory.
The only thing these parents and kids were immersed in was a couple of folding tables and lame decorations.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, an ad for “Willy’s Chocolate Experience” invited fans to travel to “a universe where confectionary dreams are brought to life” that included “mind-expanding projections, optical marvels and exhibits that transport you into the realm of creativity” and “wondrous creations and enchanting surprises at every turn!”
Yeah, not so much.
You can see why these parents felt so defrauded.
We’re not sure if calling the police helped or what the authorities could actually do, but reportedly the event’s organizers are offering full refunds.
Parents, better make sure you’re actually given cash refunds and not some fake golden tickets.
