I've never been that big a fan of fairground style ghost trains in general. There have been a few family cartoony style ones I've liked, but I've always found ones that try to be scary, with only a few exceptions more laughable than anything else. This ride though has avoided the usual pitfalls to become one of the exceptions.

To start with the models are of a good quality. Unlike some other ghost trains it feels as if a real effort has been made, and that your meant to look at the models properly for more than a few seconds.

 

What really makes this ride stand out though is the spooky atmosphere. It doesn't rely on the cheap scares, that might make you jump the first time, but soon become tired. Instead it has a great combination of music, lighting and scary models that create an isolated feeling and a spooky atmosphere. This really sets it apart from other fairground style ghost trains.
