  • A Willy Wonka-inspired event in Glasgow, Scotland, was shut down this past weekend following complaints from parents and families that it fell far short of expectations. Stuart Sinclair visited "Willy's Chocolate Experience" and told CBS News about the event.

    It’s like going to Disneyland, but instead they take you to a local theme park that is way too run down.

    A little bit of trivia is that I understand it was just one dodgy guy who ran this event.....He said he was part of some illuminati board and he was the director but this group doesn't exist........Furthermore I am glad the police were called on this scammer because in a few months time he was advertising a Harry Potter immersive experience. Imagine how many more people would be conned with that.
