And now Disney is a corrupt overlord who cares more about money than quality. Walt may have held his workers to draconian standards, but at least it was worth it for masterpieces. Nowadays, they half ass their movies with only a few good ones in the bunch.

[@AlaskanBookwyrm]

I was emotionally scarred by Mr. Toad's Wild Ride when I was about 5, my grandmother decided it would be a funny prank to tell me that I was actually the one driving the car and I should be very careful to drive safely. Upon the crash and the hell scene I promptly had a sobbing breakdown because I'd been sure that my terrible driving skills had 'broken' the ride and that I was actually about to go off the rails and perish.

[@ZVLiveInLove]

I, too, had a similar childhood trauma with an attraction. Many years ago, when the movie Bug's Life was popular, Disney's Animal Kingdom had a 3D featured experience. My family urged me to tag along and 'enjoy' the ride. Long story short, when the Grasshopper character appeared on the screen, I cried and cowered in my seat. Evidently, my grandparents thought my reaction was hilarious. F "Bug's Life." This is NOT a kid-friendly movie - although I suspect most of my hatred stems from the disturbing scene when the antagonist Grasshopper beats the tar out of Flick. So, I empathize with your scary, most un-enjoyable time on a ride. I vaguely remember Mr. Toad's storyline, but I'll probably need to refresh my memory on that and other such films back in the good ol' days, like The Rescuers, and The Great Mouse Detective. Perhaps I'll regale this morbid tale to my therapist in the next session.

[@R.444-]

@@ZVLiveInLove I also had a traumatizing experience with the bug’s life 4D. I vaguely remember being pulled out of the theatre by my parents sobbing after the giant spider scene.

[@DaPineapple123]

As the harry potter ride is a constantly loading one when a less abled person wants to board they have to stop it, i was once on it and got stopped right in front of the giant spider for about 10 minutes. Arachnophobia and claustrophobia did not help then 🤣.

[@TheTurkaderr]

Really ?? Wow that would really ruin the effectiveness of the effects of the ride, I hope they someday figure out a way around that.

[@litchtheshinigami8936]

yeah it's that way for a lot of rides.. the efteling one does it too i believe as the step in is this circular platform that keeps spinning. so if someone in let's say a wheelchair wants to ride it they have to stop it because it could be dangerous to not do so.. there is also the clown one that i believe also does a similar thing since it's all just one giant track though the fairy dream also has a similar concept there are places to the ride where it cannot really easily stop as it's kind of a downwards slide. i remember as a kid it stopping right beneath the djinn and joking to my mum that i hoped he wouldn't fart

[@wendyelemans7786]

As a Dutch person, I am happy to see the Efteling on this page. Fata Morgana, built in 1986 is still the best dark ride. As a child and today, we paid regular visits to the Efteling. The giant (jinn?) in Fata Morgana is scary, but as a kid there were more other things that scared me. The crocodiles that come at you from the water. The guards shooting at you. The patient in the dentist's chair. The dungeons with prison is indeed the scariest part. Especially the cells with prisoners, the rats and the guy with a vulture on his shoulder. The tilting room with snake head and lasers . 1 part of the ride was definitely the most scary for me is not mentioned. there is this dark corridor where the boat makes a turn. There is nothing there just emptiness and blackness and it gives you chills because the temperature actually drops because of air fans, your hair moves in the wind and you can hear the cold wind howling as your boat moves to the next gate, not knowing what comes next!!

[@lizzy6555]

Not going to lie, Harry Potter forbidden journey terrified me the first time I went in it. I didn’t know it had animatronics since most of universal is all projections and screens. The dragon caught me off guard and I never recovered.

[@oscorp5809]

I literally asked the universal employee if it has spiders in it and they lied.

[@Brizzle12341]

My mom told me it was just a calming ride where you fly on your broomstick, she later claimed they must have changed it because she didn't remember it being so intense

[@pandamonium2653]

I had no idea either, and being that close to the animatronics scared the life outta me, especially the skeleton-looking dementors. Made me terrified to go on Gringotts, but fortunately that one WAS projections and one of my absolute favorite rides now

The phantom manor actually traumatised me as a kid, I was glued to my mom's arm throughout the whole ride!

And now I only cry a little while I ride it

Thank you for including Hollywood Tour! As a kid, my parents didn‘t see why I was so terrified as this ride isn‘t even meant to be scary. This video shows me that I was right in thinking that Hollywood tour was the scariest attraction I have ever been on. I am still kinda sad it is closed, it was such a classic ride. I would surely go there again!

I'll never forget how much the Harry Potter ride scared the hell out of me. I closed my eyes at the start of the spider scene, thinking it wouldn't last long, but when I opened my eyes, it was right when Aragog pops out. I screamed so loud that my throat hurt for a bit after. I'm a huge arachnophobe, so, yeah, not a fan of that scene. XD I'm also very happy to see Knoebel's Haunted Mansion on this list!

[@wplays4271]

Don’t get me wrong. The Djinn in Fata Morgana (Efteling) terrified me as a kid. But overall, I think it is way tamer compared to the original Snow White or some of the horror dark rides mentioned in the video. I’m still happy that Efteling got mentioned though, since the park deserves all the praise it gets

[@symera7809]

Having the Hollywood Tour in here brings back so many memories. My sister and I always dared each other to go on this thing alone, whenever we went to the park. It was always terrifying, but also a fun time.

[@fairycece6236]

For years this was a must-do when I visited Phantasialand with my siblings. We always said, we go there everytime we visit the park till this attraction will shut down. Sadly, this tradition has ended xD

[@EftelQuint]

After a year I still find it funny that Fata Morgana was the scariest ride on this list. Yes, I’ve been scared of it for the first 12 years of my life, but I’m afraid of almost everything, so I don’t think that justifies it. Though I’m generally not scared of dark rides anymore, (except for if they have a drop) a lot of rides on this list seem way worse.

Having recently been to Pigeon Forge and rode the dinosaur ride, I can happy say the animatronics are updated and it’s pretty cool!

I remember Dinosaur. My dad decided to take 12 year old me, my 6 year old brother and my jumpy mom on that ride. I had my eyes shut for almost the whole thing, my brother was audibly crying and even mom screamed at one point. Long story short, after the ride, dad was laughing his ass off and mom looked like she was gonna strangle him.

I honestly don't know how Fata Morgana ended up at #1 for scariest dark rides when there's so many haunted houses and dinosaur catastrophes on this list. I'm a born and raised Dutchie, and I've visited the Efteling quite a few times in my life by now. Fata Morgana is definitely amongst my favorite rides in the park (probably only beaten out by Droomvlucht), and while it's creepy and somewhat unsettling, I'm not sure if I would call it actually scary... although now that I think of it, it did make my younger sister cry when we were both still very young, and even I would look away from certain scenes where animatronics are being tortured... so maybe it really is lot scarier than I realize... Still, a #1 spot? Honored, but I'm not entirely sure about that.

[@magicfireflame]

My sister and I once got temporarily stopped on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Only for about a minute, so no evacuation or anything. Guess which scene we got stuck in? That was terrifying, lol but we got a good laugh out of it.

[@UlshaRS]

Mr. Toads Wild Ride! The ride was so claustrophobic with all those non-stop pull away pieces and enclosed room segments. You always felt a hairsbreadth away from a crash and were not quite sure where the path was going as walls separated to your side as you rammed towards what looked like an escape door like the ones you just went through, throwing you into a new dizzying direction. I LOVED THAT RIDE! This was the one that gave me my love of dark rides, especially ones that "went wrong"

[@bayleerenee01]

Finally, SOMEONE talks about Disney's dinosaur ride. I was an avid fan of dinosaurs until the age of eight - when I saw that T-Rex chowing down that dinosaur.

16:43 I never thought I'd see my home park in one of these videos but BIG agree on Lewis and Clark's Big Adventure!!! I went to Oaks Park every summer as a kid and for some reason I rode this every year, even though it scared the crap out of me every time. (Probably because the line was never very long.) I looked up the video you guys cited and it is SO much more unsettling with the audio, I actually got goosebumps listening to those tinny speakers and the buzzing of the machinery again 😂 Haven't been in years, but I'm pretty sure the space where that ride stood is now either a cheap arcade or just a stage for shows and events and whatnot.

[@mattheviewer]

Note on the Snow White ride: in the 80's the ride featured the first Wicked Queen offering an apple to passer-by guests. Only problem was the guests would snatch the apple out of the Queen's hand! The animatron was soon modified to lift her cape instead.

Nice video :) Surprised to see Fata Morgana at the top. As a Dutch I grew up with it and don't find it that scary, and well quite truthful to the scary nature of most fairytales.

[@twistedcoasters1533]

Valhalla is pretty terrifying, especially when all the fire works. Also blackpools ghost train is considered the very first one!

[@katashworth41]

The logs crashing above your head too, I’ve been riding since it opened and it still makes me jump.

[@slycooperscane]

To me entry 19 and 3 are the scariest something about decaying animatroinics that are supposed to be cherry are really unerving and gives me a real feeling of danger.

[@Wolfmanluv]

I remember Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, that was awesome! Orlando Florida's Disneyworld's version of Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was scary, especially at the train part!

[@ryanjp77]

i remember going on the harry potter forbidden journey over and over when it first opened. my friend and i would skip the line and saw it stopped while we were on so we could go again without waiting LOL, it did stop a lot when it opened but i remember closing my eyes during the tree sequence because i was terrified. really an amazing ride

[@PandaCoasters]

Holy shit, he got the Carpetbagger to narrate

[@thatsthespirit3523]

Phantasialand is one of my favorite parks and i can attest. As a child i was terrified of the Hollywood Tour. But honestly it's kinda funny as you get older. It's so bad it's iconic kinda? But it's one of those rides that were kept open while other more amazing stuff was built and will probably be renovated now as the other new stuff is finished :) I'm excited but also a little teeny tiny bit sad to see it go

[@KimNoAkasunaXJashin]

I was so scared of King Kong and the Spider as a child, my mother fondly recalls how much I cried and screamed. Took me a few years to try it again and I just remember the smell

[@hannekekoolen8243]

King Kong was so mouldy! And the Hitchcock animatronic at the boarding station. Hilarious.

[@michaeltaylor1603]

Great cast you put together to present this great video! #2 Revenge (Imagineer) Got to be best "legend/ lore" reason to scare the Hebe Jebees out of someone. It's hilarious how Disney makes a good chunk of the list. I still have a mag from 1981 with Monster Plantation on the cover. I think it's Nat. Geo Kids World.

[@kyrem13]

As a Pennsylvanian who lives relatively close to Knoebels, I cannot stress enough just how terrifying its two dark rides were for me lmao. I remember the Black Diamond didn't spook me quite as much but it still had some moments like the creepy looking miners and the loud noises of the donkey early on that got me a bit, it also came into the park quite a bit later in my life. I wanna say around when I was in my earlier teens (I'm 23 atm so yeh) but they've always had the Knoebels Haunted Mansion that legitimately made me cry when I went on it once as a younger kid lmao. Nowadays I love it. Huge props for including them both on the list.

[@racerm50]

I'm a fan of Jacob the Carpet Bagger and I enjoy his enthusiasm for dark rides and haunted attractions.

[@thatsthespirit3523]

The Fata Morgana is my dad's favorite ride at Efteling :) As a child the giant and torture was really terrifying. I still hate it.

[@tiesdenbrok8924]

The Fata Morgana was my favorite ride in the Efteling when I was a kid

[@kyaraevergreen2344]

I still love the fata morgana and everything that has anything to do with efteling

[@milesstone7032]

I miss the Lewis and Clark ride at Oaks Park. It was one of my favorites growing up. It closed just after the summer season in 2013, and it was knocked down. There is now an open-air arcade in its place.

[@Robert0Pirie]

OMG, it was a dark ride! This video made me realize that a Six Flags Over Georgia ride caused me nightmares for years as a kid!!! I didn't even remember that it was a ride until seeing this! That southern bell monster on the staircase! She and the stuff after her haunted me for years! This is all making so much sense now!

[@hyperblaze1616]

Trimper's Haunted house actually has live actors as well.

[@briezerbayb]

And you can hold pretty good conversations with the random workers chilling where the guy is hanging from the ceiling. The one time I went in it there was a guy sleeping right at that spot and we scared him awake.

[@JustTanya.]

Awww...loved Mr. Toad's ride to hell. That part was hot as hell though, pun intended. Freaking humid heat we're just not that used to in Southern Cali but my friends and I got a kick out of that ride. I always thought there should be a ride, if there isn't, based on Stephen King novels like Pet Sematary, It, Misery, etc.

[@Dreamlikelucy1]

Instant like before watching, cause I love all of your Videos! ♥️

[@Jim26D]

The mummy was one of my favorite all time rides. I went in around 2006 with my friend who had vip passes. Got in trouble for trying to record it. We rode it so many times and then ran into dwane wade who was pretty laid back until he started getting recognized

[@lindatannock]

No 2, Phantasy what?! It's pronounced "fantazia-land!" 🙈😂. I apologise for laughing, but you made me giggle lol. I performed in the ice show there for a year (the 1st year they had an ice show). Great place to work/live 😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⛸

"Phantashy Uihland"

[@iamsannafan3928]

Can we just appreciate that the voice changes in every scary ride

[@Vythica13]

omg Efteling! The end of that ride with the dude looming over you gave me nightmares for years!!

[@allisong1244]

Was pleasantly surprised to see Trimper’s from Ocean City! That was my entire childhood, every year I’ve went there I got on that ride, and I’ll continue doing so in the future. Still remember me in a stroller staring at the vampire animatronic out front in terror (when he was still moving and functional - now he just kinda sits there, mostly motionless.)

[@allisong1244]

Oh, and now it has real live actors in costume popping up around corners which I did not expect when I rode it alone this year. And it changes every year I’ve gone, so it stays fresh!

[@thevine2010]

What is great about "Phantom Manor" is that there is a connecting story between it and "Big Thunder" and Thunder Mesa (what we know as Frontierland) and the Ravenswood family. You actually see Thunder Mesa in Hell on this ride.

[@phantomboba]

Yeah, the murdered fiancé canonically was the foreman at the big thunder mine and I think that was a really cool way to connect the two.

[@latricemariemorris5230]

I enjoyed this video and thanks for the epilepsy warning ⚠️

[@bilalt1363]

A theme park crazy upload is enough to make my day

[@mooncatstudios3175]

Same! Absolutely the best theme park channel out there, in my humble opinion lol

[@christinalittleton3771]

I can't believe that this kind of stuff gave me chills, and I grew up watching the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise on VHS tapes as a kid!
