t and creepiest urban myths with writer and teacher Lyndon Riggall. Credits Lucy Breaden, Presenter David Reilly, Producer Image Details Mythical moths, ghosts and tall tales abound across Tasmania.(ABC News) Program:More from Hobart Drive Hobart, Penguin, Human Interest, Human Interest Transcript Lyndon Riggall Yeah, look, I've got a couple of favourites. I'm a teacher and we actually talk about the way that, you know, stories emerge and myths emerge and things like that, particularly in a Tasmanian context. We love the Serendipity Fun Park, which is, some people might remember, the Serendipity Fun Park, which sort of arose in Devonport as a bit of a tourist attraction and then sort of rapidly disappeared. And of course, the urban legend is not that it was just unprofitable, but that perhaps a child may have died or gone missing and something untoward happened to them. And from that.
The excerpt is presented as public-source context. Terminology belongs to the cited source and may be historical, contested, culturally specific, or outdated.
