Could you imagine if this place existed in the early 90s when Arcades were still popular? The place would have been packed shoulder to shoulder with kids coming every day after school. Busy every single day.

Places like that don't even really have games anymore. It's mostly just sensory overload and redemption games.

The 5 cabinets in my basement with a popcorn machine from ebay is better than Dave & busters. D & B has games more suited for little kids. Galloping ghost arcade is the real deal. Stupid krazy fun.

Awesome, glad you like the walk-through. I sat down with Doc, the Owner, and he told the story of how Galloping Ghosts started.

My girlfriend wanted to visit Chicago, I said no I don’t want to go. NOW I DO!!! This place reminds me of a pizza shop arcade multiplied by 10,000. Chicago here I come.

The arcade is worth the trip, and Chicago is overrated, in my opinion, but Galloping Ghosts is amazing. I interviewed the owner if you want to know more about the story of the arcade.

Oh yeah. People come from all over the world. By means of getting real busy, it's similar to other arcades. Go during the week if you want more space.

They charge $25 dollars per person for all day play. And they get pretty busy on Fridays and weekends where it gets packed. So I think they are making enough to cover the bills and a small profit. The owners said they aren't rich or anything, but the arcade community supporting their arcade have been incredibly supportive. Most of the profit goes towards saving up to buyinf restoring more arcade cabinets. They also have Galloping Ghost Pinball down the street. So it must be popular too. So in short... They are doing OK. Not rich. But enough to support and very slowly expand the business.

I don't know that Doc gets rid of games at any point he may have taken it off the floor to repair. This also isn't a complete walk-through. It would have been a 40-minute video. I didn't film the whole arcade. It's most likely still in there.
