VOTE HERE FOR THE MOST BIZARRE DARK RIDE: forms.gle/QohwFLU2ARBeAteN9

[@kashleigh1709]

Hi the Area 51 dark ride used to also be at SeaWorld on the Goldcoast in Australia. The ride layout was identical, for a while it was believed that the parts were shipped to maintain Area 51 but that has since been proved to be wrong. It was removed time again and has been replaces with a water coaster.

[@DatScharger64]

I'm missing the haunted house-ride from Energylandia, Poland. Because that one is so terrible and outright weird with all the chaotic stuff in it, that it would be my personal most bizarre dark ride.

[@mancave10369]

Traditional dark rides still exist?

[@Sarah_Sparkles]

That spider just chillin there would freak me the heck out. Something about being touched by ride props is worse than looking at them

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

I expect this.

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

the way it's just hanging there motionless until the guy riding literally has to push it away is really eerie

[@amichalap]

The prehistoric river animatronics look like inflatables.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

Good idea.

[@UrFriendlyNeighborhoodBassist-]

Dino rave 💀

[@mancave10369]

Some I’ve seen look like moving stone statues.

[@DrasticFox2004]

@@mancave10369 Nice to see you here. :) *I get excited when I see Charlie Morningstar anywhere, even on your PFP right now as I type this.*

[@victoriagarcia3078]

3:13 clearly the dinosaurs are having a disco party and them moving their heads back and forth is the only dance move they know

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

I get it.

[@iskrassupercoolchannel]

Lol

[@christianortiz793]

These dark rides honestly look more unsettling than bizarre.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

I agree.

[@Playerthegamer21]

Oh, absolutely

[@ThemeParkCrazy]

I'd say they're a mix of both. But I can 100% see the unsettling themes of them.

[@Anthony-rb8ib]

Jojo's Unsettling Adventure

[@erinloveswendy]

@@Anthony-rb8ib 2:52 Check out that insane crazy Iguanadon with Human Eyes and Human Teeth!

[@bygonebunny1563]

I have a dinosaur phobia; that mixed with the human teeth and crazy lights…It might be my personal hell

[@joecandish3923]

I think Toyland Tours is probably the least strange its meant to be an eccentric toy factory where the toys make themselves, I would love it if Alton Towers reimagined this classic and made something new out of it. The Soundtrack is one of the best

[@Videosyncratic]

In my opinion, Toyland Tours truly is one of the greatest lost rides from Alton Towers

[@Markiegee55]

The music in that ride will never leave my head, even though I am American I knew about this from Badnik Mechanic in his Sonic in Alton Towers video

[@DeathMetalDerf]

The busted up dino animatronics are giving some serious FNAF vibes.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

Yeah.

[@knightofarkronia9968]

Honestly, aside from the creepy giant, I think Fantasy Dream is quite a cute ride! That adorable dragon is just asking for a hug!

[@coyoteartist]

I'd be fine I think with the giant, I would not like the clown mouth bit. I love that the train looks like it's out of The Little Engine That Could and that dragon. He just needs a hug and some Tums.

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

i agree! it's a really cute ride, if not a little claustrophobic-looking due to how close everything is to the train car. ;; but the theming and characters are genuinely very cute

[@spindleclown]

So glad to see Prehistoric River featured; it freaks me out that the animatronics are close enough to touch (and people have!) I don't want to imagine getting smacked by one of those human-teethed, flashing nightmares. It feels like a bad fever dream.

[@tufab3494]

TPC's been making lots of videos about dark rides recently and I couldn't be happier about it 🥰 Keep it up Peter! I have 0 regrets in watching every single video you post. It's been 4 years for me already and you never disapointed me with your content! As always, much love from Brazil 💙

[@ThemeParkCrazy]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@snbsixteen6stars201]

That dino ride is a law suite waiting to happen, there are multiple stropelight for sesures, possible physical hazards, exposed machinary next to water, possible fire hazard material used

[@shinyagumon7015]

Prehistoric River feels like if you made an AI create a dinosaur-themed dark ride, like it's close to how a human would do it, but also very uncanny like the designer didn't quite understand what a dinosaur or a dark ride is.

[@Videosyncratic]

I can't believe you'd list Toyland Tours on a list of "strange" dark rides without even even giving the busty hippopotamus ballerinas a mention 😅

[@otaking3582]

I'm an American that's heard of Toyland Tours, and that's _specifically_ because of the Sonic connection. The channel Badnik Mechanic did a video on it and the Sonic Spinball coaster.

[@Markiegee55]

That's one of my favorite videos that he did!

[@mycollectibles]

Some of the makers of these rides must of did some serious party timing 😂

[@jenniferbillings2527]

They probably was tripping acid eating shrooms smoking weed snorting coke and smoking Crack 😂😂😂😂

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

the dinosaur ride looks like having a bad trip at a museum lmao

[@QUEENno1fan]

There was a dark ride in the UK at a theme park called Chessington World of Adventures called Professor Burp's Bubbleworks. It was a boat tour of a fizzy pop factory. It had some of the strangest sights you'd ever see. Including a giant angry bubble, a floating cow and a fzzy drink bottle roller coaster! It became a very popular ride at Chessington, later on in it's life it went under a rebrand when a soap company called Imperial Leather sponsored it. Now a lot of the strange sights you'd see involved Rubber ducks. The ride closed down a few years ago and is now a boat ride telling the story of The Gruffalo

[@stewydoo]

It's included in the vote 😉

[@gamingandcraftswithlogan8714]

I have a vendetta against the gruffalo for that. If he was real, he would fear me.

[@BleachFan9891]

Prehistoric River is definitely bizarre, should come with a photosensitivy warning with all the flashing lights

[@CharlieFarrow07]

I heard about Toyland Tours! I’ve seen advertisements on videos that were taken when the ride first opened. Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to ride it because I think it was removed before my first visit to Alton Towers. It looks like it was fun though!

[@sophiehanssel2017]

LSD simulator sounds like a ride that belongs in a drug-themed amusement park

[@boxtrot6435]

Over the hill in adventure island had a unique ending as it seemed like it was the end of the ride before the lights turned off Making it feel like the ride malfunctioned and then you were greeted with a jumpscare before the ride actually finished

[@CarrieJerry]

Don't know what I expected from that redacted clip of the arctic ride but I wasn't disappointed 😂😬

[@random69e]

The prehistoric river is Willy wonka meets Jurassic Park

[@gojirazillasaurus6341]

I love watching your videos on my school bus since it takes so long! These videos are always so interesting, love the content!!❤

[@ThemeParkCrazy]

Glad you like them!

[@simonoltman4160]

The prehistoric river makes jurassic jungle boat ride look like a world class dark ride.

[@HangTime5109]

Thank you for making my day better by posting!

[@S.M.R]

Is there a dark ride about memes or a meme-themed ride? That would be a real acid trip. lol

[@BlazeHeartPanther]

It'd probably be like that one Meme run game on the Wii-U back in the 2010s

[@foxythepirateboi]

that last ride u mentioned, I just watched the uncensored version of it and my god does it feel like ur on an acid trip, LMAO

[@simonp7226]

I remember Toyland Tours well, especially the soundtrack. As a child I never found it bizarre or weird or scary. It was just a whimsical boat ride through many sections of toy themed scenery, with a little British humour thrown in. Quite basic movements and animations, but the styles and themeing were great.

[@NativeNew_Yorker]

Thank you for including clips of my footage!! @/ceccheese and I are huge fans of the Mine of Lost Souls! He’s loved it ever since he was a kid. Figured I’d shoot some video to archive it. 😁

[@melissap.6271]

This wss really cool. Subscribed. 😊

[@ThemeParksAndAttractions]

Love a good dark ride! Great video! ❤

[@RankingTheMouse]

I need to go to South Korea ASAP to ride that weird whimsical dark ride 😂😂😂 that looks like an acid trip hahaha

As someone from Northern England you totally pronounced Trafford right! Good job!! ^^ my favourites hv gotta be the last two they're so trippy and funny

[@jacobking2.0]

Dreamyland looks like a liminal space location

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

DAM SEN DINOSAUR RIDE MENTIONED 👀👀👀👀 i've been weirdly obsessed with it for a couple years, i'd be terrified riding it but it's so interesting to watch on video! thank you for making a playlist of the rides mentioned too, there's a lot i personally haven't heard of here and i'm excited to dive in :0

[@Strange-the-skeleton]

Phew after this rough week, I needed a new dark ride video.

[@rebeccamcgillivray8875]

I thought I'd imagined Dreamie Land! Thank you for covering it, now I know what the name of the dark ride that haunted me as a child was. It filled me with dread, I hated even going into that section of the Trafford Centre! Years later as an enthusiast I couldn't find much about it so it was very exciting to see it in this video. Gosh I hated the thing, it made me feel so unsettled! Thank you for covering it!

[@thanhhiennguyen5894]

Vietnamese here, Can confirm the first ride on the list is nightmare fuel. In fact, it makes me scared of any types of dark ride for the rest of my life. What is worse than scary dinosaur? It's the dinosaur with RGB light eyes.

[@annaborokakiss8249]

I was on the last one in Vienna. That polar bear is in fact VERY unsetteling, i was in first row, so it came very close to me too.

[@coltonandjen]

I've heard about Fantasy Dream before, mostly because of the Halloween overlay they do where they have live actors inside to scare you and they make the lighting all red and dark

[@famouslivingdead8752]

Omg I'm at 5:26 ready to tap out this is weird. I kept watching I am so intrigued. Thank you for this!!!

[@celestefrashuer9405]

I’ve never seen any of these rides this was a fun video , thank you !

[@shadowsoinc6633]

yea same

[@swiftfated]

Wow, Miranda Rijks ride is so unique and cool and creative. I think it definitely deserves its own video.

[@yogijonah1243]

You should totally visit HHN or Scary Farm! I already love your content, but I’d totally watch your spooky content.

[@steffanylee_]

Can you imagine the amount of germs and gunk that’s on those dinosaurs/jellyfish? Especially the ones that drop in front of your face? Like I’m not a germaphobe but… 😬 Edited to add- I like those “move it, move it” penguins! 🤣

[@andrewtoon5428]

Woah hell yeah Derby, CT shoutout! We love a valley dweller, now we need some lake compounce “Ghost Hunt” content 😂

[@ThemeParkCrazy]

Ghost Hunt is a childhood classic! Speaking of Derby, A.M. Bagel is the best!

[@minti1702]

7:00 sounds like Stefon from SNL describing a night club 😂

[@datprawn4850]

There's River Cave in Blackpool Pleasure Beach, and that was opened in 1911

[@TheRedCoasterChannel]

Great video and always funny to see yourself 😊 yes, Halloween in the Eisberg has unfortunately not been around for a few years. The showman has taken over an old ghost train, so it could be that I turn up in the ghost train on Halloween 😉😊 and the children's program continues in the Eisberg 😎

[@wolfpackgaming1383]

There was a ride at the Texas state fair for several years called Lumalusion It was literally a straight acid trip. There should be some footage on KZbin of it as well as a ride in Japan called shining luminescent castle. That would probably also interest you as it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

[@Foxgirl95]

I watched the uncensored link….I was not ready 😂😂😂

[@Vampcat92]

Didn't now where to post this, but I highly recommend looking into Lagoon in Farmington Utah. It has one of the old wooden rollercoasters. The history behind the park is really cool too.

[@Bmcd3565]

Bro these rides are so odd that I might have to check em out if they still exist or are still around

[@ThatAlleyRat]

Followed the link to that ride, hahaha was not expecting that xDD

[@Filburtturle]

I just want to make a suggestion a little known dark ride I know is the looney tunes river ride that operated from 1991 till 2011

[@Playerthegamer21]

Ooh yeah, I've heard of that one. It was pretty bizarre.

[@naarahjanemorris3121]

Hi Peter I'm just asking did this 1st ride use water or lasers to shoot the bad guys? this ride looks really fun I'd go on it unless it's now gone we had loads of fun dark rides in the UK from the ghost train & there were others it's so sad when rides that have been around for years & have entertained us as children Have suddenly disappeared , thanks for sharing this video peter.

[@rebeccahwatson3079]

Omg, an American who pronounced it Derby-sheer rather than Derby-shy-r! Finally! I'm officially making you an honorary Brit. Love your vids!

[@pleasurebeachfan]

Watching videos about weird dark rides on your channel will never get old... 😄 (P.S. You pronounced "Trafford" correctly! 👍)

[@MikeGiallo]

i would love a video of the most decayed darkrides still operating , it would be cooler if you could show some examples of how it looked pristine and how decayed.

[@seiricerin]

I don't remember a ride at the Trafford Centre...I don't even remember not being allowed, or being too old, to go on a ride at the Trafford Centre 🤔🤔 I do remember the family of singing animatronic teddy bears they had though 😂

[@caucasoidape8838]

I love freaky dark rides. I don't care if they are cheezy, so long as they are interesting. It's the ones where just a buzzer goes off, and a dollar store skeleton lean forward that are no good.

[@melrwill]

I checked out the Eisberg ride footage. Creepiest/MOST bizarre ride I've ever seen in my entire life! Let me go cast my vote

[@sharknadoman1015]

Most bizarre rides I've ever seen. TPC, you really know how to make a video, whether scripted or not.

[@isaacjacques1946]

I truly weird one was out my local park defunct now but it was called Tommy tinkerboo’s sweet adventure at pleasure island

[@F1SayCheese]

I planned to visit and try Jurassic Jungle Boat ride. But the year I went was 2022 in October. The attraction was closed due to undergoing repairs and replacing animatronics.

[@robwilcockson2511]

Loving the Derbyshire shout out, my home county 😁

[@dwitefry4157]

If you want something to appear on a list so much - make your own list. Also, beyond that: the racing snails in Toyland Tours aren't strange, theyr'e play on Scalextric (Snailextric), a TOY brand in a TOY themed ride, you can even see the logo in your footage explaining the gag. In fact nor is Sonic, he was in the video game portion of the ride. Subjectively Fantasy Dream doesn't seem so strange either, disturbing yes, but it clearly just uses standad fairy tale tropes - the giant, the dragon, the candy house, Alice's flowers - I can't explain the Fox Wizard though...

[@DrasticFox2004]

3:18 - 3:32 Great. Now I’m gonna have nightmares.

[@wolpertingera5829]

I am from Austria and live near Wien (Vienna) and my first thought was "someone should have sent him a video about Eisberg that's a really weird one" and suddenly it is mentioned in the video.

[@Bigchilezlife]

Bizarre rides is what attracts people honestly just for curiosity

[@SpanishTravelsHols]

Lol - I live near the Trafford Centre - The ride was quite fun, it only lasted 2 years.

[@GlutzahnLP]

I can confirm, being able to understand the ride audio of the Iceberg ride does not make it any less confusing, more like the other way round, im now even more confused after watching the hole ride POV

[@kylefox9971]

Trafford was pronounced correctly so good job!

[@Duelingdragons382]

What happened to the video you were gonna do on light water valleys coaster called the ultimate, did you cancel it or no? Just curious

[@ThemeParkCrazy]

Definitely not cancelled. Still in the pipeline 👍👍

[@amadeoalferez2333]

oh my god, I can't believe what was behind that ice block that you censored for the • Interactive ETF Mystic Mover Darkride. It's so crazy

[@deboralee1623]

i'm too stupid to access the link, so i'll just imagine something. [imagines something, then resumes this reply] now i see why the image is blurred. !yikes, that is _intense_!

[@Dollsunderthesea]

Those dinosaurs are so scary 😭

[@trika91]

I think having a dark ride with live actors in costume jump-scaring the passengers to be an creative idea, especially for the Halloween month. Like you can have a 'Haunted Mansion' themed ride with actors dressed as ghosts/ghouls to jump-scare the passengers (probably loud music and flashing lights, similar to jump-scares in movies); it would defiantly make the ride more scary and entertaining, along with the dark atmosphere and creepy animatronics.

[@steely3506]

Safety issue with moving carts and tracks

[@steely3506]

I've thought about it some more and I do wonder if it could be possible to have special guarded platforms for performers on moving rides, but it would likely have to be a very regimented routine to get the timing right on cart movements and animatronics and sound effects. Ultimately it probably wouldn't be worth it as you would need a lot of staff to run theme parks and keeping some on standby to do what is probably a less than a minute routine every four to seven minutes just wouldn't be economical. And in the interest of safety you would not get the desired "jumpscare" effect. That should be reserved for animatronics and moving props.

[@christopherwall2121]

They tried that at the actual Haunted Mansion. People kept hitting the actors.

[@liamjolly691]

Toy land tours was my favourite ride ever

[@hing215]

" i misteri dei sogni" felifonte Italy. Thst was a disturbing yet fascinating ride

[@Samuel_Hearfield]

As someone who resides in England, you definitely said Trafford correctly.

[@KeanDProductions]

Oh my god 😱😱😱 the snake with a sombrero was literally a nightmare I had when I was a kid and I had no clue anyone else ever had a similar vision! I had a dream I was on a boat ride and in a dark corner there was a hole in the wall with a snake wearing a sombrero popping out of it somehow holding a shotgun with no arms saying "ama ama" over and over again and I peed the bed (I was 6 for context) I can't believe anything even similar exists somewhere in the world this is crazy!

[@banized7323]

the polar bear looks like their on weed

[@UrFriendlyNeighborhoodBassist-]

Im eating a nature valley bar on my couch which playing animal crossing and watching this

[@coyoteartist]

The dinosaur one would be one of my wrose nightmares. I'm photosensitive so the lights alone would be a trail, but pop down things that could touch you and ride elements that close? I'd have to sit on my hands to prevent from attacking anything back. The dinosaurs with the neon do look kinda cool, but not in that setting.

[@playmatecaz]

The Trafford center one looks like the alien from home .

[@Its_a_me_mario_wahoo]

Let's go! Us Austrians got a well faired mention in here. But there are some more scary rides in the Vienna Prater like the VR Clown ride

[@Troy-jc2ko]

I found out about Toyland Tours just half-a-year ago when I discovered Sonic Spinball and I dove down what I’m dubbing “The Alton Towers Sonic Rabbit Hole.”

[@edward4412]

the dinosaur ride looks like if five nights at Freddy's and Jurassic park had a collab and decided to make the ride rave party themed
