Mermaids, July 1960
There are legends of Mermaids once inhabiting Disneyland's Submarine lagoon. But I've never been the superstitious sort, so I chalk those stories up to a kind of mass hysteria. Those are clearly common manatees out there, waving their flippers. Country bumpkins interpreted those waving motions as enticements to join them, where the "mermaids" would drag them to their watery doom.

That's a Siren's song that would be difficult to resist! You could be just walking by the lagoon, and the next thing you know, you would be over that fence without realizing it. Too scary to even think about. Well, maybe I think about it a little.
