Canada's Wonderland- New Dark Ride for 2014 " Wonder Mountain's Guardian"

!!BREAKING NEWS!!

 We now now what is going into the side of Wonder Mountain up at Canada's Wonderland! 

 In May of 2014, Canada's Wonderland will open the side of Wonder Mountain to reveal the mountain's guardian! In an all new, interactive 4D dark ride, guest will get a chance to explore the myth of the guardian. 

"Wonder Mountain's Guardian begins with a perilously climb up the side of Wonder Mountain then plummets into the core traveling through five different layers of this dimensional world. Riders will encounter mythical creatures as they navigate 1,000 feet of coaster track through a desolate forest, underground lake and the Draconian city. The quest culminates as riders enter the dragons lair for the ultimate battle and heart-stopping finale that will shock thrill seekers of all ages". 

 The ride is being built by Montreal's TRIOTECH who is a leader in supplying these types of multi-sensory rides for the amusement industry and has developed new and updated systems for this newest addition to Canada's Wonderland. The ride will simulate wind, movement and more. It will also have the fastest and most accurate targeting system.

 We've spoken to Canada's Wonderland this afternoon, Thunder Run will remain intact and will not be removed! This is good news as Canada's Wonderland will remain tied with it's sister park, Cedar Point for coasters. With this addition I'd imagine that Canada's Wonderland will be an even more magical place then before, we can't wait to bring you coverage of this new attraction next season!

Cedar Point Announcement for 2014- New 'Dark Ride' Attraction?

 Once again, Cedar Point is up to something.

 Rumors are flying left and right about a possible new "dark ride" style attraction being added to the park in 2014. The park is suppose to announce whatever this 2014 addition is on Tuesday, August 27th at an unknown time.

 Lately everyone has been gossiping about a dark ride, possibly going in above the arcade which is in the coliseum building. Located right on the main path through the beginning of the park, this is one of the biggest buildings left standing in the park today. One report found from Screamscape is "An innovative, interactive dark ride" which to me just screams another "shoot'em up" style dark ride, such as many parks are currently hosting.  Another report also states the park was looking for a family to announce the new attraction, so it's likely going to be a family style ride.

 However, one has to wonder if this building will be enough space for something truly 'innovative"?  It's unknown if the arcade will also leave and if it will take up both floors of the building or just the second story area. I know many parks of stuffed shooter style dark-rides into small spaces but that often limits the ability to theme an immerse environment, in my opinion. 




 We'll have to wait and see what the park announces about this newest addition coming in 2014!
