What is Chuck E. Chile?



Chuck E. Chile is my passion project, an independent fan archive I created to preserve and uncover the forgotten history of Chuck E. Cheese stores and Creative Engineering shows in Chile.

I’m "TheCrazyBear", a Chilean musician, 3D artist, content creator, and lifelong animatronics fan. 

I built this site to bring together everything I’ve found over the years in one place, open and accessible for everyone who shares this same fascination. Whether you’re here out of nostalgia or pure curiosity, you’re more than welcome.


Everything in one place!

From detailed articles to rare media, behind-the-scenes footage, and animatronic documentation, everything here is carefully researched, compiled, and displayed without filters.


Always up to date!

Unlike static YouTube uploads or forgotten forum threads, Chuck E. Chile is updated regularly as I make new discoveries, connect with others, and dig deeper into this bizarre and magical piece of entertainment history.


Available Worldwide!

Thanks to built-in translation, anyone from anywhere can explore the site in their own language.

----------------------------------------------------------

I created this project because I hate gatekeeping. There’s no room for exclusivity here, no hidden files, no private groups, no watermarks. If it exists, it should be preserved and shared.


Come explore the forgotten past and uncover the weird, wonderful world of animatronics, Relive the magic, only at Chuck E. Chile!

The New Rock-Afire Explosion, Mampato Lo Barnechea (Let's Fun) In 1995, the Chilean amusement park Mampato, located in the commune of Lo Barnechea in Santiago, inaugurated an indoor family entertainment center named Let’s Fun. The concept of Let’s Fun closely mirrored that of American venues such as Chuck E. Cheese’s and ShowBiz Pizza Place, offering arcade machines, carnival-style attractions, bowling lanes, and a pizza-focused restaurant. One of its most significant features was the installation of an advanced animatronic show: The New Rock-afire Explosion, developed by Creative Engineering, Inc.

Among the notable historical artifacts present were posters and artwork featuring Harmony Howlette (Among other defunct charact...
