I rode this back in 1981, shortly after it reopened as The Demon. It was MUCH more exciting when they had the mist and sound effects in the first tunnel, the lights and sound effects in the second tunnel, and the blood-red colored water before the skull and corkscrews. Now the ride just looks ... old and tired. My childhood; I miss it.

[@doubletroubletoil]

I love roller coasters and the engineering and physics that makes them possible...they're just so fascinating...

[@ouchsp]

I remember this ride from its first inception in the 1970's! It has changed a lot. It's slower and doesn't have as many twists and turns as it once did. The double barrel roll is still there, so that's good to see!

[@PlatinumEagleStudios]

VERY old Arrow Coaster. For most of you who might not know, Arrow is short for Arrow Dynamics, the company who designed and built this coaster. This looks to be an early model Arrow. Sadly, all the effects including the fog, blood colored water from the waterfall, and the head tunnel have been removed from the coaster ;'-( what's left, is the actual ride itself. I hope its still standing. As Arrow is no longer a company. The president died. That's all i know about it. But hope this amazing piece of art is still working and still going.

[@Ben-xm4gf]

Yeah it's still there :D I go there about once every week or so and i also ride it when i go there.

[@PlatinumEagleStudios]

Oh thank god. It was very sad when the president of Arrow died ;-( because Arrow was a pioneer of many types of coasters that many other company's build today.

[@fltlinr]

I work there and we actually still have a lot of the effects on the ride..... Sadly we don't really turn them on because due to the age of the ride, a lot of the effects cause faults to occur in the system. :( So to allow for more uptime of the ride, we can't actually turn them on.

[@goodfellow408]

Dontrell94 What effects are still there that can be turned on? I'm curious. I've been going for yeeeears and haven't seen any of em. Can the tunnel lights and red water be turned on? Anything else?

[@fltlinr]

the lights used now are like multicolored strips, im sure the regular lights are still installed....The mechanics didn't comment when I used to ask(as did none of my old supervisors), unfortunately, I no longer work there but still have a bit of knowledge.

[@captainron93]

I remember my first ride on this coaster (in the 80's) the tunnel was lighted back then and the water was red

[@Charlesb88]

Unfortunately CGA has allowed the theming to seriously deteriorate on the Demon. Several fun elements have be disabled or removed including lights in the first tunnel just out of the station as well as sounds effects that played in that tunnel, a cement rock structure you passed through during the second loop, Fog machines that were placed in the tunnels, and finally blood red colored water that fell out of the rock formation by the corkscrews. I can sort of understand why they may have stop maintaining the fog and waterfall features due to maintenance costs and other issues but they could have at least maintained the lights in the tunnel and the sound effects and the rock structure in between the second loop.

[@41mavsrule]

You guys know Drake and Josh were the first to ride this ride

[@tommycarr8111]

no, no, no. The ride was actually called the Demonator, and it was a fictional ride. This ride came out in 1976 and the episode came out 30 years later.

[@41mavsrule]

[@tommycarr8111]

I remember when this one first opened in the late 70's. The first tunnel was spewing with fog, the 2nd tunnel had a light show that ran the entire length, and the final tunnel before the corkscrews had a loud disorienting sound effect & the waterfall was blood red. I'll never understand why they took those great parts out.

[@M.I.D.]

I remember when the Demon opened. There used to be smoke and lights and snarling growls on the first tunnel before the climb, and a light show in the tunnel after the loops. Also, it looks like the main drop has been changed to be less steep? Idk, it was a long time ago, but I swear it dropped nearly straight down. FUN RIDE!!!

[@LoyaFrostwind]

M Henselman , I thought so too. The drop looks too gentle now to get any acceleration into the loops.

[@AnakinMarcZaeger]

As much as I love B&M coasters, there's just something about the old Arrow coasters that's just... Beautiful. Maybe I'm just biased because that was the first full-circuit looping coaster I ever road. Just a few minutes after riding my first ever looping coaster, the Tidal Wave. Back in the days when the park was still themed, when the Tidal Wave still had its lights and beachfront, and the Demon still had the glowing eyes by the entrance, 3 queue mazes, lights around the tunnel entrance, rocks around the loops complete with color-changing lights, and glowing eyes on the skull. Yeah, the new coasters are exciting, thrilling, and give one more of an adrenaline rush than any old coaster could. But I have yet to see one that was anywheres near as beautiful as the older ones.

[@gregorymoore2877]

You can be biased and still be correct. Vintage Arrow loopers are beautiful.

For nostalgia purposes I will give props to the Demon. Been riding the demon since 1983 and it was the scariest ride back in those days. Double loop to loops and corkscrews were a new thing back then so this was a big deal. It doesn't compare to the stuff out now but I had some serious great times on this ride as a kid growing up. Im surprised they have kept it going all these years. Great America had some great rides back in the day which unfortunately most of them are all gone.

[@Sursion]

WEEE! WEEE! OM NOM NOM

[@L-Taraval]

Classic "older" coaster in NorCal. I remember riding Demon for the first time in the 80's. It was originally called Turn of the Century and didn't have the vertical loops. It had two large camelbacks plus the two corkscrews.

[@charliefandre]

Six flags Great Americas Demon is way better. Reasons. In tunnel 1 there are eyes. On the vertical loops there are rocks you go through. In the second tunnel there are lights that flick on and off. The demon moth you go into before the corkscrews is much more looking like a demon. Do I need to do any more explaining? If you want proof, look up Six Flags Great America Demon. Did I mention that the coaster has VR?

[@onlyonerichie]

Charles Fandre VR in general needs to die

michael burns Oh, it's a cool looking ride, it just doesn't do much. The Jack Rabbit was built nearly 100 years ago, yet you at least get air on the double dip near the end. The Racer was built around the same time and is a bit more fierce than this one. The Gemini was built in 1977 or 1978 and is a lot faster and more dangerous than this one. Just saying.

[@gburnash]

Sad that it's such a shadow of itself with all of the effects missing, removed, or not working. They added so much to the ride- from the mist, darkness, and screams in the first tunnel, the rock work around the first loops, the second tunnel lighting up blood red as you went through it, the blood colored falls and more. It was really an incredible ride- especially for it's time when it opened. As others are commenting below, there is another one at Six Flags Great America. Both Great America's were originally "twin" parks owned by Marriott's, and had identical coasters in them. These both started out as Turn of the Century without the vertical loops, then the loops were added and all of the effects. Shortly afterwards Marriott's sold off the parks. The Chicago area park preserves a lot more of the original theming and atmosphere than the Santa Clara park does, where much of it throughout the park has been lost over the years.

[@reversedthings7433]

Exactly the same as The Demon at Six Flags Great America in Illinois. Which was called the Turn of the Century the first time I rode in spring of 1979. Originally designed with 2 large hills where the double loop was and the loops were where the corkscrew is now. It was re-themed the following year as the demon and one year after that Marriott sold out to Six Flags. I will never forget it as it is the first coaster I ever rode.

[@Hervinbalfour]

John VanAcker That's interesting. They tore down the Turn of the Century and replaced it with The Demon. This was my first coaster ever as a youngin'. It's outdated by today's standards but this coaster helped get over my fear of coasters then I was ready to move on up to the "big boys" like The Viper at Six Flags in Los Angeles.
