Plopsaland De Panne - Wednesday 28th June Our final day of the trip brought us to Plopsaland De Panne to ride what was probably my most anticipated coaster in Europe. I don’t need to tell you which one, because you sure as hell know it’s not Heidi the Ride. Whilst Plopsaland has a couple of...

Aw thanks! Yeah Kondaa was really surprising. It's just relentless! Haha oh Pulsar is brilliant, I can't believe how forceful those launches are. It's definitely slept on!

Ooh interesting. I went based off what I've seen paraded around as the best. I nearly put the likes of Oziris and Black Mamba on, but I don't see them talked about in quite the same manner as the ones I picked. I'm curious now as to what 'others' people might pick. What's Thundercoaster like...

So, i've recently come back from visiting France and Belgium to hit three of what I assumed to be the best coasters in Europe; Toutatis, Kondaa and Ride to Happiness. I'm curious to hear peoples thoughts on what European coaster stands out as the best of the best! Obvioulsy, having only been...

Walibi Belgium - Tuesday 27th June So, following a successful day at Parc Asterix where I had gained a new number one, we headed across the border into Belgium for Walibi Belgium. I must admit, I had downplayed this park before my visit. It never seems to get quite the same hype from...

For the last couple of years I’ve really started to neglect my coaster count. I mean you know it’s bad when your most notable new cred in 2022 was Turbo at Brighton Pier… Yes, I know, shame on me. The thing is prior to this year my cred count consists mostly of coasters from the UK...

Oh my god wouldn't that just be amazing? Or you know how the station has track that morphs into the creatures tendrils? Imagine if they added in more of those around the ride area.

Don't say that, you'll get my hopes up. I've always thought a family GG woodie would be the perfect fit for somewhere like Drayton or Paultons. It would definitely get me to visit!

Not to stoke any speculation, but V = 5 in roman numerals right? How many creds does the park currently have? 1. Accelerator 2. Shockwave 3. Troublesome Trucks 4. Buffalo Don't suppose this could be teasing a new coaster joining the lineup to make 5? I mean what else could the V be referring...

I don't know if they'd do that given they already have Saw which is 100 degrees. Personally I think it has to be something reliable in the thrill category. The park is too thrill orientated to make a family coaster provide the boost in attendance they're desperately in need of. What type of...

ScareTOUR is always on top of listing which events are running and which aren't. Pretty much the most reliable source for news/reviews from the scare attraction industry, though Parks Scares and Glitter, Scare Directory and Scare Track are also worth checking out. With regards to events i'm...

As a self proclaimed drop tower enthusiast I don't think anything comes close to the stand up side on Apocalypse. It's by far the most refined, pure sensation of falling out of any drop tower i've ridden. It's probably the best ride i've ever ridden in all honesty. Though I have to say, Venom at...

Given how popular the classics are, do we really think Thorpe will want to risk using names like Big Top, Experiment 10 and Asylum when their audience has what could perhaps be deemed as unrealistic expectations? At most we might get a scare zone referencing characters from previous attractions...

Yeah as much as we obviously knew to expect a slide, a matt racer?! I mean that's pretty basic. I'm kinda surprised a waterpark such as Alabama Splash Adventure doesn't have one already. Really odd thing to hype up.

For me, there is no competition. The only ride I enjoy at Universal Studios Florida is Revenge of the Mummy (which in all fairness is fantastic). Unfortunately, the supporting line-up is lacking. Rip Ride Rock-it is dull and has a nasty rattle, Gringotts is the first ride i've ever been on where...

Oh wow, is it just me or was this a pretty terrible display of the new prototype carriage. The spinning, as already mentioned, looks very tame in comparison to the earlier test on Blue Fire with the Time Traveller train. With such little movement from the carriage it really does make it seem...

Totally agree, people are already underestimating it, which is a real shame. Black Mirror will be such a hard IP to do right, but I have faith in Thorpe. I think people will be surprised. I just hope people give it a chance. I do however think it's interesting what @InsomniaMelon said about...

I'm excited, but being a scare attraction enthusiast above anything else, I am worried about the fact this means we're loosing yet another indoor maze at Thorpe. I'm sure they've got something planned for Fright Nights for a new replacement maze for Living Nightmare in another location, but i'm...

Nope, I'm a Celeb was replaced by Jungle Escape which has been confirmed to be returning. I assume, based off rumours, that this is replacing Walking Dead: Living Nightmare using the old Slammer Queue as it's line.

What the hell?! I actually got it right ? Black Mirror: Labyrinth has just been announced as some form of interactive experience. Sounds interesting. Nice IP, question if it will appeal to the audience of Thorpe, but i'm interested.
