Also, what a sad WASTE of the suspended-track system. No room where you're actually ABOVE the scares? No alligator pits? No spiky floors? No swamps, or graveyards full of zombie hands reaching up out of the dirt? There's so much potential for fun/spooky rooms with a suspended-track system (that wouldn't even require much more budget than what they currently spent), but it feels like they didn't even try.
Came to make this same comment. The track is amazing but it could easily be a standard, floor track dark ride with how they used it. At one point I was like...and? Why is this a flying track? Especially with that awesome outside bit. Disappointing for sure.
It appears to be a seasonal dark ride. Cheap and easy to change for whatever holiday you want to represent. Roll-out floor matting might help with the atmosphere you are trying to portray.
@@phroobar That's kind of been Adventureland's vibe for all of it's surprisingly long existence. I would swear they built this new ride system and attraction, and just moved all the old mannequin's and effects from the old one. At this stage I'm not sure if this sort of low rent Carny ride vibe is a deliberate attempt at maintaining the parks cheesy theming, or that they are just really really cheap.
I love seeing these old fashioned dark rides I’m 62 and these rides remind me of the small amusement parks with the dark rides that were around when I grew up We had one great family run park near me called Whalelom Park in Leominster Massachusetts. I went as a kid,I took my own 2 kids there. Had one of the best wooden coasters around. Unfortunately it’s gone now. Condo’s now stand where it did.
i've been visiting this park for years and can confirm, the inside of the ride has basically been unchanged for over a decade. they did an overhaul of the outside & track system within the past few years, but the props inside are almost exactly the same as when i was young. so yes lol it IS very tacky, but that's part of it's charm. while there are some thrilling rides at the park, it's always skewed a bit younger in target demographic and had a carnival feel, so this ride was always fitting for the vibe the rest of the park has
It’s like knoebels haunted house sort of. Take Peter Pan ride from Disney, throw it in with knoebels HH..put some money into it and fix it up; it could have potential to be a lot better. I know what you mean with the tacky but charming ;) K’s HH is pretty much the same, they add or change scenes every few years. It’s tacky/campy but it’s still among the best haunted house rides in the world.
Yeah this is the first time I've seen an suspended haunted house ride too. They tried and that's awesome. I think that if they had real people and better sets, it could work for a haunt in the fall.
You should look up “Haunted Mansion Funland” it’s in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. It’s a suspended haunted house that opened in 1979. It’s great but a little cheesy now that I’m older.
This is not ripping people off, Long Island Is known to have good people, my proof? I live in Long Island! There’s many kids that go to this park and if they want a scare, like a 6-8 year old, this will scare them, everything is not intended for adults you know?
This is so terrible, I love it. They spent all the money on the track and carts, absolutely $100 spent on homemade animatronics haha. "Behold the ravages of age!"
It is a fun ride, but would you want to ride it a second or third time? They proberbly spent a fortune on the track system and ran out of money for the effects. Too much bright light in a lot of spaces. Not really a dark ride and. some of it seems only half completed. As others have mentioned it needs a couple of actors to make it scary. Good quality video.
It’s like the production half heartedly tried. They had the access to amazing roller coaster equipment but the theming supplies from a defunct Halloween store. Very lackluster for such a beautiful track system.
they stole vincent price's laugh from "thriller", i also enjoy the man opening the doors and coming out of his small shed to just scream at you as you pass by.
Reminds me of “The Screamatorium of Dr. Frightmarestein” from The Simpsons. All that was missing was an old lady sat on her chair saying “beware the ravages of age.”
Its as if a parking garage was fitted with an attraction system..I'd love to work at a company where this system brings you to your car at arrival and departure for the days work.
love the design. just need to be a fully dark ride with some real scare actors and some ambient/music tracks to go with it along with touching up on the details
i love these suspended ghost trains they add so much more fear cause you’re so exposed ive been on one at winter wonderland in london and i remember one year they had an actor grabbing your legs it was terrifying
The track system reminds me of the Peter Pan ride….and the overall feel/style of it is very similar to the Haunted House at Knoebels. Except the haunted house at knoebels continuously adds/changes different parts of the ride every few years. This ride could have potential to be as good as knoebels HH. The park just needs to see about sinking some cash into it. ** knoebels has been my home park since I was 2 (87). Shares time with Disney (I live in Florida now). I know both places inside and out so if anyone ever needs inside insight/trivia about either just ask :)
i’m not rlly a rollercoaster fan so when i go to adventureland, i usually ride this ride a few times. it’s a good ride for when you want a little scare
That dog lunging out of a crate before the last turn to outside looks like an old Bill Tracey effect, similar to a dog they used to have lunging out a top window on the "Wacky Shack" Phantasmagoria at Bell's Amusement Park in Tulsa Oklahoma.
The track that they used in this ride is strangely heavy-duty for what the ride requires. I kept thinking we'd get a surprise high-thrill drop or something, but nope. Makes me wonder if they built this ride after getting a sweet deal on a bunch of surplus track sections.
Everyone's hating on it, but it seems pretty fun. Nobody expected it to be best of the best, and it wasn't. It was just a good time with pretty well made animatronics. I like it a lot, personally.
Wow. A suspended track with all that space! But such wasted potential. At least make it where your sight line doesn't reveal all the fright gags at once! Could be sooooo much better with a little effort. I think a previous commenter nailed it when saying the operators put all the money in the track system.
As an adult I want two thirds of the track cut, shove everything in before that circus tent sunshine nonsense. But have a feeling as a little kid that false end of the ride would have been perfectly effective at ramping up my anxiety.
I wasn't really scared rather my friend was scared to death, even that employee scared us from beginning when giving admission ticket and ending when he unbuckling us with roaring surprise, same reaction, wasn't scared for me, but my friend twice. If she got scared for the third time, she would tears it. I still thankful to the father of a daughter who gave us the tickets to us as daddy couldn't ride this because his daughter was scared to tears before entering this attraction.
Why bother installing a suspended system if you leave the floor empty? Look at the Peter Pan ride at Disney, it's amazing to "fly over" the scenery and not having the track visually in the way. Such a shame.
Aww... It's like The Haunted Mansion's long lost little brother. Still good effort however, and probably would have traumatized me when I was a young lad.
There’s really no benefit or point to this being a suspended ride. It doesn’t take advantage of the ride system at all. Might as well be a floor based ride.
I think if I owned something like this, I would make it pitch black, get a few fairly cheap projectors and a few musion/peppers ghost screens, and trigger the projector as each car went past. Then you could have some pretty convincing holograms for cheap!

Looks like a cool Ride to go on !!
@@hollykrecek375 Also came here to say the same. Baffled
I love how all the sound effects abruptly start and then cut off like someone hitting "play" and "stop" buttons.
For real
It kind of ruins the scare
Definitely seems like they blew the budget on the ride system and construction, which looks very fun and awesome, and cut corners on theming.
Yeah, I got the vibe a lot of the jumpscares were just motion activated decorations from a spirit Halloween, or stuff like that
My thoughts exactly
They did more than cut corners, they straight annihilated them lol.
Looks like this is where Spirit Halloween clearance items go!
🤣 you couldn't be more right!!! It was hard to watch...it was that bad.
I was just thinking that! Why go here when you can visit these animatronics at Spirit for free?
Track system is beautiful, the scares seem fairly generic though.
Party City, anyone?
It is like someone bought out a Spirit Halloween store and put it in a ride.
@@DrewFu319 I thought I heard a familiar laugh from that commercial and the end of Michael Jackson's "Thriller".

Would have been awesome if there was some sort of storyline, rather than just random “haunted house” scares.
Exactly
When you blow your budget on the track system.
Yup lol

Did you ever go to Rocky Point in RI? House of Horrors

You can add SO much stuff on the ground to add to it if they ever want to Upgrade the place to make it stand out over everyone else.
Wow, their local Spirit Halloween must have made a killing.
This feels like your just riding throughout the Halloween store. And I love a good mystery horror. This seems like a good waste of money
That's the only topic here. They just wanna rip people off with something like this.
Lol that’s the perfect way to explain this lane ride. And so much wastes space and potential.
This is not ripping people off, Long Island Is known to have good people, my proof? I live in Long Island! There’s many kids that go to this park and if they want a scare, like a 6-8 year old, this will scare them, everything is not intended for adults you know?

They might have spent $200 lol
Dark ride! It’s got more lights on than my house at night! 😝

Ride system isn't expensive at all, standard fair ground system
its supposed to be a kids ride
@@aumorz So is the Haunted Mansion at Disney and people love it. This one is pretty substandard as either a scare ride or a story ride.
For such an expensive ride/track system, you would think that the attraction would have been fare more fleshed out and detailed.
The detailed flesh stuff would not be suitable for young children as it would give them nightmares.
Blew their budget on the track system?
It’s like the production half heartedly tried. They had the access to amazing roller coaster equipment but the theming supplies from a defunct Halloween store. Very lackluster for such a beautiful track system.
When you order Disneyland from Wish
Stfu adventure land is so good
😅
😂😂
Yup!
LOL
they stole vincent price's laugh from "thriller", i also enjoy the man opening the doors and coming out of his small shed to just scream at you as you pass by.
I was wondering if they are paying for the rights to use his voice....I doubt it.
I picked up that sample immediately.
Reminds me of “The Screamatorium of Dr. Frightmarestein” from The Simpsons. All that was missing was an old lady sat on her chair saying “beware the ravages of age.”
This is exactly what sprung to my mind!
Love a low budget half assed ghost train 😌 classic 😂
😀🙏
Spent so much on the suspended track system that the rest seems cheap and nasty.
I love the Vincent Price laughter in beginning haha
Its as if a parking garage was fitted with an attraction system..I'd love to work at a company where this system brings you to your car at arrival and departure for the days work.
This would’ve been terrifying to a 5 yo me…
Perfect Haunted house ride for me! No real people trying to jump scare or run after you 😎
Great ride concept, but appears to have went to the Halloween store and said, We'll take two of everything.
love the design. just need to be a fully dark ride with some real scare actors and some ambient/music tracks to go with it along with touching up on the details
i love these suspended ghost trains they add so much more fear cause you’re so exposed ive been on one at winter wonderland in london and i remember one year they had an actor grabbing your legs it was terrifying
Wow that was completely awful...I pictured it longer being two floors and all...Yikes. 🙏
Thanks For The Share, Ive Never Seen Or Even Knew They Made A Suspended Dark Ride.

Like gliding through a spirit store!
Hahaha
Looks like a motorized tour of the prop warehouse for a B-movie straight to video slasher flick.
nice twist on a traditional dark ride, they should incorporate live actors to scare the guests into this ride to make it even more frightening!
i’m not rlly a rollercoaster fan so when i go to adventureland, i usually ride this ride a few times. it’s a good ride for when you want a little scare
the only scare you prob got was paying the ticket price to get in the park lol
@@robertadlington650 not rlly i have season passes
@@strxnge.tbh this is gonna scare you alot if your like 8
You're charitable - I was gonna say two.@@magicchisel9299
It's like someone tried poorly to make a haunted house in their basement for Halloween. Epic fail.
Wow what a great ghosttrain😍 10/10
the Haunted Mansion at Rehoboth Beach has a suspended ride system, and has been that way for decades, I think. It opened in 1979
So cheesy I love it
On the Dutch and German fair circuit a similar attraction exists under the name Haunted Mansion. It is owned by the showman Hinzen.
Ngl this ride seems pretty adorable
At least this ride was better than the Creepshow and the haunted mansion. It had way more robots inside.
That dog lunging out of a crate before the last turn to outside looks like an old Bill Tracey effect, similar to a dog they used to have lunging out a top window on the "Wacky Shack" Phantasmagoria at Bell's Amusement Park in Tulsa Oklahoma.

I love this ride
It's low cost and normal, but I kinda like the vibe from it
Shhhhhhhh Quitness. I love the scary wall of Target curtains.
Not the worst I’ve seen. It has potential.
love that kind of track system ❤️
😊
@@mehmetucar3685 케이블카
How much did it cost to go on this ride? Because it definitely wasn't worth the money!
free
I love this place so much
Awesome thought, but the decor looks like it was after thought
This is why money cant by creativity. appreciate your crazy wacky employees they have awesome ideas!
The best dark ride I have seen for a long long while😮😅😊❤❤🎉🎉
Another new ride I haven't heard of looks good
Everyone's hating on it, but it seems pretty fun. Nobody expected it to be best of the best, and it wasn't. It was just a good time with pretty well made animatronics. I like it a lot, personally.
Hey that's Vincent Price's laugh
You know your park made it when @Attractions360 does a video!
The haunted rides were scarier when I was growing up.
That’s so impressive that they put this up quickly. Love rides! Wish it was a little scarier though.
Interesting concept, it seems that you're floating around.
I’m surprised that you went to my home park and ride on this inverted dark ride. It looks very fun!
definitely looks like a carnival ride and seems like it would only be half interesting if done after it got dark outside.
In the beginning of the ride, you hear Vincent Price’s laugh from the ending of Thriller
Wow. A suspended track with all that space! But such wasted potential. At least make it where your sight line doesn't reveal all the fright gags at once! Could be sooooo much better with a little effort. I think a previous commenter nailed it when saying the operators put all the money in the track system.
party city on halloween: the ride
I miss the old hand built wooden haunted house "13 13 cemetery way"🎃💀👻
Thanks for the video, sure I would ride the thing but it looks like a halfway done mock-up for a Disney ride.
2:18 cool! the phantom's boat!
"Hay mom! Can we go into the Random Crap Thrown Around with Odd LED Lighting and Sound Clips House!!!???"
THIS WILL NEVER BE 1313 CEMETERY WAY 💔
Like a ride thru Spirit store. I like it 👌
It's like riding a suspended track system through a Spirit Halloween store...lol
It was surprised.There is no such attraction in Japan.If I had free times,l wanted to go there.(I also want that in the Tokyo Disney sea.)
cold rolling fog on the ground would help alot and real actors
Monster House from Playcenter in Brazil featured a very similar ride… 45 years ago.
As an adult I want two thirds of the track cut, shove everything in before that circus tent sunshine nonsense. But have a feeling as a little kid that false end of the ride would have been perfectly effective at ramping up my anxiety.
Love it!!!
this just looks like a another universal Hollywood horror nights thing
Fun to see chepe
This looks great.
Yeah, back in the '70's at Elitch Gardens, the haunted house ride was so slow, kids would get out and play in there..
I wasn't really scared rather my friend was scared to death, even that employee scared us from beginning when giving admission ticket and ending when he unbuckling us with roaring surprise, same reaction, wasn't scared for me, but my friend twice. If she got scared for the third time, she would tears it.
I still thankful to the father of a daughter who gave us the tickets to us as daddy couldn't ride this because his daughter was scared to tears before entering this attraction.
"Okay guys! We've got an empty space and a $5,000 Spirit Halloween gift card! Make it happen!"
Why bother installing a suspended system if you leave the floor empty? Look at the Peter Pan ride at Disney, it's amazing to "fly over" the scenery and not having the track visually in the way. Such a shame.
Was expecting a fast descend back to the first floor, but instead it was an anticlimactic crawl to the finish.
It’s like they spent so much on the ride vehicles and the track system that they could only afford dollar store props the decorate the show scenes
I want that big Tarantula spider over my bed
Cool ride
I’ve literally had nightmares of this exact same setting but the puppets inside would come alive after me
I just watched this and CSPAN on side-by-side screens. I couldn't tell the difference.
"Ok, so we've built the track, now let's get to theming"
"We spent all the budget on a suspended track"
Aww... It's like The Haunted Mansion's long lost little brother. Still good effort however, and probably would have traumatized me when I was a young lad.
There’s really no benefit or point to this being a suspended ride. It doesn’t take advantage of the ride system at all. Might as well be a floor based ride.
OMG it’s on Long Island where I live

I love the track
I’ve been on this ride!
It looks like a spirit halloween threw-up on this ride and said "Yep... this will do"
