Draft:Stars Hall of Fame

Stars Hall of Fame was a wax museum located in Orlando, Florida.

Background
In 1970, the Great Southwest Corporation who owned and operated the Six Flags theme parks, acquired the Movieland Wax Museum for $1,500,000.

The project was announced in December 1973, but then in January 1974, it was revealed construction would be delayed while "assessing specific government programs affecting the energy crisis." The creation of the wax figures, and scenes were continuing without interruption.

Preview center opened October 29, 1974.

Bally Manufacturing acquired Six Flags in 1982, and sold off the Stars Hall of Fame because it didn't fit into their master plans.
